Mohammad Aminur Rahman, a former student of Jagannath University (JU), claims to have discovered a new mathematical formula. His research has led to the creation of the "Interval Table Method," a technique that provides a completely new way to calculate the "Power Sum" (1^p + 2^p + 3^p + ... + n^p). Unlike traditional methods that rely on complex calculations involving Bernoulli and Stirling numbers, his formula is much simpler, offering direct results for p values such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and so on.
Hailing from Atulia Union in Shyamnagar Upazila, Satkhira District, Aminur Rahman was part of JU’s Physics Department 2014-15 batch. He published his formula on Zenodo, a respected open research repository managed by CERN in Switzerland, which is the largest of its kind in the European Union. His final paper was released on September 10 under his name, and he is now working to publish it in a major academic journal.
Passionate about research since childhood, Aminur Rahman began developing this formula in 2014, building on a discovery he made in 2009, and has recently completed his work.
Currently, he teaches GRE Math at "Our Math School" and is preparing to pursue a PhD abroad. His goal is to continue research, establish educational institutions, and mentor students from Bangladesh to compete on a global stage.
