The Hertz Foundation is proud to recognize the 16 most recent graduates of the Hertz Fellowship in applied science, mathematics and engineering.

When Hannah Cairo was 17 years old, she disproved the Mizohata-Takeuchi conjecture, a long-standing guess in the field of harmonic analysis about how waves behave on curved surfaces. The conjecture ...

On its surface, the Kakeya conjecture is a simple statement about rotating needles. But it underlies a wealth of mathematics. The Quanta Newsletter ...

Abstract: The spectrum is complex and the interference is serious when there are non-integer inter-harmonics. Aiming at this, a fourth-order Kaiser self-convolution window function obtained by ...

Snowflake wants to reduce enterprises’ reliance on data engineers and data scientists for unstructured data analysis with its new SQL functions powered by generative AI. Snowflake is adding generative ...

Crusty, cold-bath-and-calisthenics-loving James Oliver perfected the “Oliver Chilled Plow” in 1868. Although the first metal plow had been made in 1837, Oliver’s chilled cast-iron model was such an ...

Functional data analysis is typically conducted within the L²-Hilbert space framework. There is by now a fully developed statistical toolbox allowing for the principled application of the functional ...

Abstract: Model-based methods stand out for their high efficiency in sensorless permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) control techniques and have attracted more and more attention. However, ...

Enterprises are bullish on agentic applications that can understand user instructions and intent to perform different tasks in digital environments. It’s the next wave in the age of generative AI, but ...
