If you've ever wanted to live in a mathematical head-scratcher, the Moebius House is the home for you. Freelance writer Amanda C. Kooser covers gadgets and tech news with a twist for CNET. When not ...

In 1977, two mathematicians created a conjecture that proposed the minimum size a paper strip needed to be in order to form an embedded strip. Although they proposed an aspect ration of 1.73 (or √3), ...

Imagine holding a strip of paper. You give it a half-twist and then tape its ends together. The shape you’re now holding is the ticket to a world where surfaces have only one side and boundaries blur ...

Möbius strips are curious mathematical objects. To construct one of these single-sided surfaces, take a strip of paper, twist it once and then tape the ends together. Making one of these beauties is ...

A newly derived set of differential equations provides a numerical solution to the classic question of predicting the shape of a Möbius strip. To explain the notion of a developable strip it will be ...
