Numbers and networks: how can we use mathematics to assess the resilience of global supply chains?

Futurum

For example, as transportation networks play a key role in moving goods and materials from suppliers to customers, Zach hopes to integrate models of global transportation networks into his models of global supply chain networks. There are many branches of maths, including algebra, geometry, calculus and statistics.

LLM Tech and a Lot More: Version 13.3 of Wolfram Language and Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

But what if we ask a question where the answer is some algebraic expression? But in an algebra course, one wouldn’t want to consider the unfactored form a “correct answer” to the factoring problem, even though it’s “mathematically equal”. Sometimes that’s easy to determine. If we ask “What is 2 + 2?”, In Version 13.3

How Inevitable Is the Concept of Numbers?

Stephen Wolfram

Let’s say that we’re trying to achieve the objective of having an efficient transportation system for carrying people around. The same is true of axioms for areas of abstract algebra like group theory—as well as basic Euclidean geometry (at least for integers). Ultimately an economic system is based on a large network of transactions.

Launching Version 13.0 of Wolfram Language + Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

Any integral of an algebraic function can in principle be done in terms of our general DifferentialRoot objects. Turning from calculus to algebra, we’ve added the function PolynomialSumOfSquaresList that provides a kind of “certificate of positivity” for a multivariate polynomial. And a third of a century later—in Version 13.0—we’re
