A connection between descriptive set theory and computer science has been discovered, allowing problems in one field to be rewritten and solved in the other by Anton Bernshteyn.
Problems in descriptive set theory (measuring infinite graph colorings) are mathematically equivalent to problems in distributed algorithms (efficient network coloring).

Researchers have refined the simplex method, a key algorithm for optimization, proving it can't be improved further and providing theoretical reasons for its efficiency.
Mathematicians are using Srinivasa Ramanujan's century-old formulae to push the boundaries of high-performance computing and verify the accuracy of calculations.
