Imagine a juggler tossing balls into the air. The art of juggling is a dance between motion and pause, where the ball’s speed ...

Classical physics is characterized by the equations describing the world. Yet our day-to-day experience is struck by this deterministic vision of the world. A physicist has been analyzing the ...

Mathematical physics is an interdisciplinary field that employs rigorous mathematical methodologies to elucidate and model physical phenomena. It draws upon diverse areas such as differential geometry ...

At the frontiers of theoretical physics, many of the most popular ideas have one thing in common: they begin from a mathematical framework that seeks to explain more things than our currently ...

MELVILLE, N.Y., May 16, 2023 – The Journal of Mathematical Physics has selected Tom Hutchcroft for the 2022 JMP Young Researcher Award. Hutchcroft’s winning publication, “Sharp hierarchical upper ...

Scientists have long believed that foam behaves like glass, with bubbles locked into place. New simulations reveal that ...

His unifying disparate theoretical realms helped revolutionize our understanding of the most basic structure of the universe. By Julie Rehmeyer Isadore Singer, who unified large areas of mathematics ...

Tessellations aren’t just eye-catching patterns—they can be used to crack complex mathematical problems. By repeatedly reflecting shapes to tile a surface, researchers uncovered a method that links ...

The 2021 Nobel Prize in Physics was announced this morning, “for groundbreaking contributions to our understanding of complex physical systems.” As often happens, this is to be split among three ...

In a recent study, mathematicians from Freie Universität Berlin have demonstrated that planar tiling, or tessellation, is much more than a way to create a pretty pattern. Consisting of a surface ...

Princeton professors Elliott Lieb and Mark Braverman were among those honored today for significant contributions to mathematics and affiliated fields by the International Mathematical Union (IMU) in ...

The Physics major provides knowledge of the physical concepts that are basic to the laws of nature, and the ability to use these fundamental concepts to answer questions and solve real problems.
