A new study finds that a century-old infinite series for calculating π discovered by Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan can be applied in other corners of physics. The study explained that ...

Ramanujan’s elegant formulas for calculating pi, developed more than a century ago, have unexpectedly resurfaced at the heart of modern physics. Researchers at IISc discovered that the same ...

Born poor in colonial India and dead at 32, Ramanujan had fantastical, out-of-nowhere visions that continue to shape the field today. One afternoon in January 2011, Hussein Mourtada leapt onto his ...

Most of us first hear about the irrational number π (pi)—rounded off as 3.14, with an infinite number of decimal digits—in school, where we learn about its use in the context of a circle. More ...

Every year December 22, is celebrated in regard to numbers, intuition, and sheer brilliance as we mark National Mathematics Day in honour of Srinivasa Ramanujan, the great Indian mathematician. He was ...

More than a century after Srinivasa Ramanujan scribbled his astonishing formulas for π in notebooks in India and England, physicists are finding that those same equations describe how nature behaves ...

National Mathematics Day is observed every year on Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan’s birth anniversary on December 22. It celebrates his valuable contributions to mathematics. In honour of ...
