Quantum algebras are a mathematical tool which provides us with a class of symmetries wider than that of Lie algebras, which are contained in the former as a special case. After a self-contained introduction to the necessary mathematical…

Many engineering students enter college excited about math and physics, only to have their enthusiasm dimmed by a rigid, outdated calculus curriculum. The University of Michigan's Robotics Department is piloting a new 4-credit course,…

We describe a mainstream "universalist" approach to the understanding of mathematics. We then conduct a systematic (but not exhaustive) review of the academic literature on the decolonisation of mathematics and identify how this challenges…

Research has shown that Educational Robotics (ER) enhances student performance, interest, engagement and collaboration. However, until now, the adoption of robotics in formal education has remained relatively scarce. Among other causes,…

We consider relationships between cubic algebras and implication algebras. We first exhibit a functorial construction of a cubic algebra from an implication algebra. Then we consider an collapse of a cubic algebra to an implication algebra…

Linear algebraic primitives are at the core of many modern algorithms in engineering, science, and machine learning. Hence, accelerating these primitives with novel computing hardware would have tremendous economic impact. Quantum computing…

In this note, we observe a relation between dialgebras (in particular, Leibniz algebras) and conformal algebras. The purpose is to show how the methods of conformal algebras help solving problems on dialgebras, and, conversely, how the…

This essay examines the relationship between artificial intelligence and the historical evolution of modern Mathematics. Rather than viewing AI as an external rupture, we argue that its effectiveness reveals a structural tendency already…

Metric algebras are metric variants of $\Sigma$-algebras. They are first introduced in the field of universal algebra to deal with algebras equipped with metric structures such as normed vector spaces. Recently a similar notion of…
