Jay Bonner’s new book on Islamic geometric patterns is as dense and thick (595 pages) as the thorniest of textbooks, but the hundreds of illustrations and the immersion in this topic are simply ...

A mathematician has developed a new way to uncover simple patterns that might underlie apparently complex systems, such as clouds, cracks in materials or the movement of the stockmarket. The method, ...

Math scholar and alumna Carolyn Yackel uses fiber arts to explore some of the most fundamental patterns in geometry ...

A new study demonstrates that certain incised stone artifacts from the Levantine Middle Paleolithic, specifically from Manot, Qafzeh, and Quneitra caves, were deliberately engraved with geometric ...

Islamic geometric patterns and architecture represent a profound synthesis of mathematical precision and artistic expression inherent in centuries of cultural heritage. These patterns are not merely ...
