I'm taking my first discrete math course. One aspect of functions has me stumped. We're asked to list the functions from a two-element set to a three-element set. And then list all the functions from ...

The benchmark tests show that the noise-free realization of QA can significantly outperform state-of-the-art classical algorithms. Quantum annealing (QA) is a cutting-edge algorithm that leverages the ...

Split a mile in half, you get half a mile. Split the half mile, you get a quarter, and on and on, until you’ve carved out a length far smaller than the diameter of an atom. Can this slicing continue ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. The Universe is out there, waiting for you to discover it. If you want to learn what the Universe is made out of at a fundamental ...

Researchers demonstrate a novel method for transforming continuous time crystals into discrete ones using subharmonic injection locking, offering new insights into symmetry breaking and control in ...

A method to replace a continuous univariate distribution with a discrete distribution that takes MN different values is analysed. Both distributions share the same rth moments for r = 0,..., 2N - 1 ...
