The study of differential algebraic geometry and model theory occupies a pivotal position at the interface of algebra, geometry, and logic. Differential algebraic geometry investigates solution sets ...
Geometric Function Theory is a vibrant field that investigates the geometric properties of analytic functions, including univalence, starlikeness, and convexity, which are key to understanding their ...
Jason Lotay explains how mathematicians studying special geometries are collaborating with physicists to explore M-theory, an 11-dimensional description of the world that unifies the various string ...
More than 30 years ago, Andreas Floer changed geometry. Now, two mathematicians have finally figured out how to extend his revolutionary perspective. Arnold’s work was in an area of mathematics that ...
These are not the kinds of objects that concern Scott Sheffield. Sheffield, a professor of mathematics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, studies shapes that are constructed by random ...
Modern physics began with a sweeping unification: in 1687 Isaac Newton showed that the disparate theories describing everything from planetary motion to tides to pendulums were all aspects of a ...
Arnold’s work was in an area of mathematics that concerns all the different configurations a physical system like bouncing billiard balls or orbiting planets can take. These configurations are encoded ...
