Zwischen guter Laune und harter Arbeit: Schuster zieht Bilanz des Freiburger Trainingslagers
Damit der Spaß bei all dem Ächzen und Ackern im Freiburger Trainingslager in Schruns (22. Juli bis 31. Juli 2026) nicht zu kurz kommt, hat der Sport-Club den Spiele-Nachmittag eingeführt. Irgendwo zwischen Torwandschießen, Koordinationsübungen und Cornhole war dann auch Platz für jede Menge Gelächter. Aber kompetitiv muss es trotzdem sein: Wer verliert, fliegt in den Pool.

New Knot Theory Discovery Overturns Long-Held Mathematical Assumption
Scanning the crowd at a fancy soiree may reveal a wide array of neckties, each fastened with a highly complex mathematical object masquerading as fashion. An entire field of mathematics is devoted to understanding mathematical knots, which one can obtain from any traditional knot by gluing the loose ends together. Mathematicians long believed that if you attach cut ends of two different knots to each other, the new knot will be just as complex as the sum of the individual knots’ complexity.

New Proof Dramatically Compresses Space Needed for Computation
Once upon a time computers filled entire rooms, reading numbers from spinning tapes and churning them through wires to do chains of basic arithmetic. Today they slip into our pockets, performing in a tiny fraction of a second what used to take hours. But even as chips shrink and gain speed, theorists are flipping the question from how much computation space we can pack into a machine to how little is enough to get the job done.
Wiskundigen lossen 40 jaar oud vormsnijprobleem op
In 1986 stelde de Belgische wiskundige Jean Bourgain een schijnbaar eenvoudige vraag die onderzoekers decennialang zou bezighouden. Kun je, ongeacht hoe je een convexe vorm vervormt – denk aan het kneden van een kleibal tot een watermeloen, voetbal of lange noedel – altijd een dwarsdoorsnede maken die groter is dan een bepaalde minimumgrootte? Israëlische en Franse hebben eindelijk het definitieve antwoord gevonden: ja.
Der perfekte Schnitt: Jahrzehntealtes Problem der Geometrie endlich gelöst

Die unerwartete Lösung kam nun aus der Physik. Exklusive Übersetzung aus 1986 stellte der belgische Mathematiker Jean Bourgain eine scheinbar einfache Frage, die Forschende jahrzehntelang umtrieb. Das Problem hat mit dem Zerschneiden geometrischer Figuren zu tun.
Mathematicians Solve Multidimensional Shape-Slicing Dilemma
In 1986 Belgian mathematician Jean Bourgain posed a seemingly simple question that continued to puzzle researchers for decades. No matter how you deform a convex shape—consider shaping a ball of clay into a watermelon, a football or a long noodle—will you always be able to slice a cross section bigger than a certain size?

Historia symboli matematycznych pokazuje złożone dzieje nauki Dlaczego znak równości wywołał konflikt między uczonymi Kto naprawdę wynalazł zero Znaki matematyczne mają swoje polityczne tło Jak ewoluo
Przez lata konkurujące gremia rozważały przyjęcie różnych notacji w wielu dziedzinach matematyki. Rojas prowadzi nas przez historię matematycznej symboliki, ukazując jej ewolucję jako wynik kulturowych, filozoficznychi i praktycznych aspektów, wynikających z potrzeb społecznych. W historii było wiele konfliktów, ale nie brak ich także w nauce. Do bardziej znaczących, jednak zwykle w historii nauki pomijanych, należy batalia o znak równości, czyli =.
Mathematics + Symbols = a Surprising × Contentious History
War in Europe is a staple topic in the study of history, but there’s one major conflict most history books won’t teach you—the battle of the equals sign, “=.” These two parallel lines were, in fact, the source of major conflict between European mathematicians in the mid 1500s. This is just one of many untold histories in The Language of Mathematics: The Stories behind the Symbols by author and mathematician Raúl Rojas.

The Matchmaking Math That Pairs Dates and Matches Medical Students to Residency Programs
Let’s create a reality dating show unlike any other in one key aspect. First, we’ll rent a villa on a tropical island. Then we’ll fly in five men and five women, each with their own (heterosexual) dating preferences. Our goal, though, is the exact opposite of the Love Island franchise: we want absolutely zero drama. Can we ensure that everyone pairs off with a partner and sticks with them, without jealousy rearing its ugly head?
Comment faire rouler des formes dans toutes les dimensions
Les mathématiciens aiment bien réinventer la roue. Une roue circulaire roule sans heurts sur une surface plane. Mais existe-t-il d’autres formes que le cercle capables de rouler aussi bien ? La réponse est oui : on appelle ces objets « courbes de largeur constante ».
Mars Missions May Be Blocked by Kidney Stones
In searching for potential dangers humans would face on a long Mars mission, scientists are leaving no stone unturned—including the ones that show up at weirdly high rates in astronauts’ kidneys. Healthy kidneys filter blood to balance the body’s water, salts and minerals, expelling waste as urine. When this process goes awry, painful kidney stones—hard accumulations of salts and materials such as calcium—can form in this essential organ.
High-Dimensional Sudoku Puzzle Proves Mathematicians Wrong on Long-standing Geometry Problem
Tiling a two-dimensional bathroom floor is a straightforward home renovation, but researchers have found that in higher dimensions it could blossom into a baffling mess of nonrepeating chaos. New results overturn a long-standing tiling conjecture, showing another way disorder must emerge from the structured realm of mathematics. Generally speaking, a tiling is a way to cover some space with lots of little pieces (tiles) that fit together without gaps or overlaps.
John McFall Is Breaking Barriers as the World’s First Parastronaut
John McFall, a Paralympic sprinter who later became an orthopedic and trauma surgeon, has had an esteemed career fueled by his intense drive and curiosity. Now he’s adding yet another acclaimed career to the mix: astronaut. Following a serious motorcycle accident when he was 19, doctors amputated McFall’s right leg above the knee.
Mathematicians Reinvent the Wheel in Higher Dimensions to Solve Decades-Old Geometry Problem
Mathematicians Reinvent the Wheel in Higher Dimensions to Solve Decades-Old Geometry Problem A new mathematical technique shows how to build small objects in any dimension that roll like a wheel, expanding our understanding of higher dimensional space Mathematicians are “reinventing the wheel” by giving it a new shape. Their newly imagined wheel looks like a many-dimensional guitar pick, and it could theoretically roll in ways beyond our three-dimensional understanding.
Kernphysik: Physiker finden eine Methode, um neue Elemente herzustellen
Bericht Lesedauer ca. 4 Minuten Drucken Teilen Kernphysik: Physiker finden eine Methode, um neue Elemente herzustellen Dank der Kernfusion mit Titanisotopen könnte das Periodensystem schon bald ein neues Element und damit eine weitere Reihe erhalten. Ist das der Beginn der lang ersehnten »Insel der Stabilität«? Exklusive Übersetzung aus Kaum sind sie da, schon sind sie wieder weg. Neue, von Menschenhand geschaffene Elemente sind meist sehr kurzlebig.
New Way of Making Superheavy Elements May Bring ‘Island of Stability’ within Reach Original
For new, human-made heavy elements on the periodic table, being “too ‘big’ for your own good” often means instability and a fleeting existence. The more protons and neutrons scientists squeeze together to construct a “superheavy” atomic nucleus—one with a total number of protons greater than 103—the more fragile the resulting element tends to be. So far all the superheavy elements humans have managed to make decay almost instantaneously.
Between Twister and Twisters, Tornado Science Has Improved a Lot in Three Decades Original
“Dorothy” was deliberately fed to an Oklahoma F5 tornado about 30 years ago in the classic disaster movie Twister. The film followed storm-chasing scientists trying to use that special apparatus (a meteorological device containing hundreds of sensors and named after the tornado-jockey ingenue in The Wizard of Oz) to understand the inner workings of one of nature’s most fearsome phenomena.
How Twisters Brought the Science of Storm Chasing to the Big Screen Original
If you grew up in the 1990s and have even a cursory interest in tornadoes, you’ve probably seen Twister. The disaster flick classic, set in the swirling chaos of a tornado outbreak in Oklahoma, captured the awesome power of severe weather—and the unwavering drive of storm-chasing scientists.
Can One Chatbot Catch Another’s Lies?
If you ask an artificial intelligence system such as ChatGPT where the Eiffel Tower is, chances are the chatbot will correctly say “Paris.” But repeatedly ask that AI the same question, and you may eventually be told that no, actually, the answer is Rome. This mistake might seem trivial, but it signals a more serious issue plaguing generative AI: hallucination, or when AI creates content that’s unfaithful to reality.
Satellite Mega Constellations Could Jeopardize Ozone-Hole Recovery
From the ground, Earth’s sky seems boundless and everlasting, but the view from above shows something different—a perilously thin blue line against the black void, all that stands between our living world and the lethal conditions of space. It’s in this fragile expanse that scientists are now recognizing a long-present danger: pollution from reentering satellites and other orbital debris.
Estimating Insulin Sensitivity and Beta-Cell Function from the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test: Validation of a new Insulin Sensitivity and Secretion (ISS) Model
Abstract Efficient and accurate methods to estimate insulin sensitivity (SI) and beta-cell function (BCF) are of great importance for studying the pathogenesis and treatment effectiveness of type 2 diabetes. Many methods exist, ranging in input data and technical requirements. Oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs) are preferred because they are simpler and more physiological.

AI is helping astronomers make new discoveries and learn about the universe faster than ever before - ΑΙhub
By Chris Impey, University of Arizona The famous first image of a black hole just got two times sharper. A research team used artificial intelligence to dramatically improve upon its first image from 2019, which now shows the black hole at the center of the M87 galaxy as darker and bigger than the first image depicted. I’m an astronomer who studies and has written about cosmology, black holes and exoplanets. Astronomers have been using AI for decades.
