Reducing redundant information to find simplifying patterns in data sets and complex networks is a scientific challenge in many knowledge fields. Moreover, detecting the dimensionality of the data is ...

Mathematicians often comment on the beauty of their chosen discipline. For the non-mathematicians among us, that can be hard to visualise. But in Prof Caroline Series’s field of hyperbolic geometry, ...

Hyperbolic knot theory concerns itself with the study of knots and links embedded in three‐dimensional spaces that admit hyperbolic structures. The geometry of a link complement—the manifold that ...

Margaret Wertheim gave a talk for the Australian Mathematical Sciences Institute at their 2016 annual Summer School. We have built a world of largely straight lines – the houses we live in, the ...

Geometry boasts a rich and captivating history within the realm of mathematics. In its early development, it was deeply rooted in practical observation used to describe essential concepts such as ...

On a Thursday night in Ithaca, New York, Daina Taimina, an ebullient blond mathematician at Cornell University, sits at her kitchen table with her husband, David Henderson, a Cornell professor of ...
