Abstract: Temperature fluctuations can influence the stability of Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA), affecting recombination and mutation rates. Inspired by these biological mechanisms, we introduce a new ...

Data is the life-blood of physical AI. Collecting real-life data is expensive. Generative AI and diffusion to create ...

Since ancient Greece, researchers have tried to isolate special rational points on curves. Now they have the first ever formula that applies uniformly to all curves ...

Blizzards are a real-life example of what game theorists call the “snowdrift problem,” a cousin of the prisoner’s dilemma ...

Quantum computers—devices that process information using quantum mechanical effects—have long been expected to outperform classical systems on certain tasks. Over the past few decades, researchers ...

In a small lab at the University of California, Santa Cruz, clusters of mouse brain cells have taken on a task normally reserved for computer algorithms: ...

UC Santa Cruz researchers are exploring how brains learn, adapt, and improve, which could help us better understand and address neurological conditions.

When my cofounder and I were accepted into a competitive startup accelerator program in fall 2025, we applied with an ambitious idea: to build an “AI scientist” for machine learning research. What ...

Mathematics, like many other scientific endeavors, is increasingly using artificial intelligence. Of course, math is the backbone of AI, but mathematicians are also turning to these tools for tasks ...

Mathematics has always been one of the most challenging subjects for students of all ages. From simple arithmetic to complex calculus, many learners struggle to understand formulas, equations, and ...

Five years ago, mathematicians Dawei Chen and Quentin Gendron were trying to untangle a difficult area of algebraic geometry involving differentials, elements of calculus used to measure distance ...
