Behind every major technological shift lies a relentless curiosity that pushes past standard methods and conventional thinking. The Wolfram Innovator Awards recognize leaders who do not just adopt computational tools but actively expand their limits to drive meaningful global change. Their (…)

In food science, small changes can have serious consequences. Altering an ingredient’s composition can affect its nutritional value and physical stability, while changing processing conditions can influence how a food behaves and whether it remains safe. The challenge is not simply measuring (…)

Modern chemistry depends on computation at nearly every stage of the scientific process. Chemists begin by representing molecular structures, then analyze chemical data, investigate molecular behavior and visualize the results of their work. Those tasks require computational tools that support (…)

June 23, 1988 is when we launched Version 1.0 of Mathematica. Today—almost 38 years later—we’re launching Version 15 of what—in recognition of how far it’s expanded beyond “math”—we now call Wolfram Language. It’s an impressive release, with a lot of new core functionality. It might perhaps seem (…)

The Erdős unit distance problem asks for the largest possible number u(n) of unit distances among n points in the plane. This is equivalent to finding maximally dense unit-distance graphs. A recent OpenAI announcement concerns the asymptotic problem: the old n^(1+o(1)) expectation is false.
