A new Mathematical Model traces 12,000 years of population growth and warns how fast Earth's limits could reshape human life.

Exponential growth compounds investment returns over time, enhancing long-term wealth. S&P 500's historic 10% annual return illustrates exponential growth's impact on investments. Staying invested in ...

In any biological system, if you put a living organism into an environment where it can thrive, with unlimited resources and no predators or competitors, it will always grow in the same fashion: ...

Just when you caught your breath, a new era is emerging—one that transcends the familiar bounds of exponential growth to venture into the breathless territories of super-exponential acceleration. This ...

You may have seen a version of the infographic (below) that explains the potential impact of social distancing. It nicely illustrates that reducing the total number ...

In a world where change is not only a constant but also rapidly accelerating, conventional thought patterns are not merely insufficient—they're risky. As an innovation expert, I've observed that the ...

Last week I wrote about the alarming math of a viral pandemic. We talked about how infectious diseases spread exponentially, not linearly—and how that can make what seems, for weeks, like a small ...

In a new open-access study that I published with my late colleague Kostya Trachenko from Queen Mary University of London, I propose a surprisingly simple nonlinear mathematical equation that unifies ...

With roughly 85,000 confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus in the United States as of Friday morning, it’s seemingly impossible to follow the updates without hearing of the pandemic’s “exponential ...
