The Social Relevance of Numbers: Insights from Animal Studies
LifeNumber processing offers significant adaptive advantages, enabling animals to navigate their environment and maximize survival outcomes. Extensive evidence across species demonstrates that numerical cognition is a ubiquitous cognitive trait that enhances

Upper Bounds for the Betti Numbers of a given Hilbert Function
, 1992 From a Macaulay's paper it follows that a lex-segment ideal has the greatest number of generators (the 0-th Betti number $\b_0$) among all the homogeneous ideals with the same Hilbert function. In this paper we prove that this fact extends to every Betti

The Relationship Between Children’s Approximate Number Certainty and Symbolic Mathematics
Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2020 Why do some children excel in mathematics while others struggle? A large body of work has shown positive correlations between children’s Approximate Number System (ANS) and school-taught symbolic mathematical skills, but the mechanism explaining this ...

Improvement on the decay of crossing numbers
, 2012 We prove that the crossing number of a graph decays in a continuous fashion in the following sense. For any epsilon>0 there is a delta>0 such that for a sufficiently large n, every graph G with n vertices and m > n^{1+epsilon} edges, has a subgraph G' of

The Influence of Socioeconomic Factors on the Development of Early Number Concepts [PDF]
, 2014 Why are some children entering school unable to count, while others are able to do simple addition? It may be that early experiences, like practice with numbers and extra resources to promote logical thinking, lay the foundation for how children and ...

Using Excel to Develop Random Number Sense
Spreadsheets in Education, 2013 People have difficulty creating and recognizing random sequences, but can become better at these tasks through practice and feedback. This paper describes how simulations produced with Excel can be used to visually display a sequence of random events ...

The Number Sense and the Language Instinct: Relating Syntax and Arithmetic in Human Cognition
BiolinguisticsThe idea that mathematical ability and language are related in human cognition is an old one. It is commonly assumed in the philosophical tradition, in psychology and in cognitive science, generally implying that knowledge of numbers is indebted to ...
