It has long been a mystery why pure math can reveal so much about the nature of the physical world. Antimatter was discovered in Paul Dirac’s equations before being detected in cosmic rays. Quarks ...

Last month, six Cornell faculty members received the Simons Fellowship, which provides funding for a research leave. Three received the Theoretical Physics fellowship and three received the ...

The branch of mathematics known as topology has become a cornerstone of modern physics thanks to the remarkable -- and above all reliable -- properties it can impart to a material or system.

THIS is the second edition of a book which from the first was recognised as filling a place of its own in our mathematical literature. It is essentially a book for the student of chemistry, for whom a ...

This is the first part of a two course graduate sequence in analytical methods to solve ordinary and partial differential equations of mathematical physics. Review of Advanced ODE’s including power ...

An eminent mathematician reveals that his advances in the study of millennia-old mathematical questions owe to concepts derived from physics. Mathematics is full of weird number systems that most ...

Even in an incomplete state, quantum field theory is the most successful physical theory ever discovered. Nathan Seiberg, one of its leading architects, talks about the gaps in QFT and how ...

THIS “Introduction to Vector-methods and their Various Applications to Physics and Mathematics” is an exposition of the late Willard Gibbs' vector analysis. The author in his preface warns us that “no ...
