Despite the greatest strides in mathematics, these hard math problems remain unsolved. Take a crack at them yourself.

The human played an invaluable role despite not understanding any of the math. Instead, he provided encouragement.

Neurosurgery researcher Jin Shanmu has very little formal education in mathematics but solved a major problem in linear ...

In mid-May, OpenAI announced that an internal AI model had disproved the Erdős unit distance conjecture, a famous problem in discrete geometry that had stumped human mathematicians for the last 80 ...

There’s a $1-million prize for proving the Riemann hypothesis. Claude couldn’t pull that off, but it made significant progress on a related problem ...

Areas of pure math such as algebra, analysis, combinatorics and many others can be used—in some cases combined—to solve the complex math problems arising from applications of math to the real world.

OpenAI’s Astra generates machine‑checkable proofs for ten decades‑old math problems, showing how verified AI can cut discovery costs to about two thousand dollars.

Little progress had been made in solving Ramsey problems since the 1930s. Now, researchers have found the answer to r(4,t), a longstanding Ramsey problem that has perplexed the math world for decades.
