The Monthly publishes articles, as well as notes and other features, about mathematics and the profession. Its readers span a broad spectrum of mathematical interests, and include professional ...

Systems theory was not originally a business theory. Indeed, systems theory was proposed in the 1940s by biologist Ludwig von Bertalanffy, say Francis Heylighen and Cliff Joslyn in their article, ...

In this paper we combine the so-called LBG algorithm in vector quantization and the number-theoretic methods to propose a new algorithm, NTLBG, of generating vector ...

Scientists have found what they say is a link between complex number theory and string theory. A mathematician and physicist working together found the connection, which they say is part of plotting ...

One of the first collaborations Xinyi Yuan and Wei Zhang ever undertook was a trip to the Social Security office. It was the fall of 2004 and the two of them were promising young graduate students in ...

Jonathan Borwein (Jon) receives funding from ARC. David H. Bailey receives no funding from Australian sources. In recent weeks, two truly major results have been announced in the realm of (analytic) ...
