In Mysterious Pattern, Math and Nature Converge All complex correlated systems, from Arctic melt ponds to the internet, appear to be governed by the same math as a random matrix. Photo: Marco de ...

The New Math of Wrinkling Patterns A comprehensive mathematical framework treats these crinkles as elegant solutions to geometric problems.

Throughout history, mathematics has developed as part of humanity's search for patterns. When I explored mathematics in cultures East and West for my book Mathematics and Art: A Cultural History ...

Mathematicians have long tried to explain nature's choice of patterns. Now University of Arizona mathematicians have developed models that reproduce some of them.

These five visual mathematical patterns offer us more than just intellectual curiosity—they provide frameworks for understanding our human experience in the context of math and nature.

The fine new “Numbers in Nature: A Mirror Maze” exhibition serves two purposes for the Museum of Science and Industry. It gives the museum a permanent exhibit that covers, in its way, m… ...
