After cracking the 'sum of cubes' puzzle for 42, mathematicians discover a new solution for 3. What do you do after solving the answer to life, the universe, and everything? If you're mathematicians ...

The problem of 42 -- at least as it relates to whether the number could be considered the sum of three cubes -- has finally been solved. The question of whether every number under 100 could be ...

What do you do after solving the answer to life, the universe, and everything? If you're mathematicians Drew Sutherland and Andy Booker, you go for the harder problem. In 2019, Booker, at the ...

Bowl food is a one-dish meal that is more than the sum of its distinct parts. It might include a protein, grain, crudites, ...

Hot on the heels of the ground-breaking 'Sum-Of-Three-Cubes' solution for the number 33, a team led by the University of Bristol and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has solved the final ...

Mathematicians long wondered whether it's possible to express the number 33 as the sum of three cubes — that is, whether the equation 33 = x³+ y³+ z³ has a solution. They knew that 29 could be written ...

We all know that 42 is the answer to life, the universe, and everything, thanks to The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Now, we also know that it’s the sum of three cubes. For decades, scientists ...

We describe a new algorithm for finding integer solutions to x³+ y³ + z³ = k for specific values of k. We use this to find representations for values of k for which no solution was previously known, ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract For any associative ring $A$ with 1 of prime characteristic $\neq 0, 2, 3$, every element of $A$ is the sum ...

An American mathematician has cracked part of a problem that had remained unsolved for 64 years. Andrew Booker, Reader of Pure Mathematics at the University of Bristol in the U.K., worked out how to ...

Just on the heels of finding three cubed numbers that sum to 42, scientists have passed another important milestone by finding three enormous cubes that sum to 3. After finding three-cubes solutions ...
