Eric Weinstein proposes a Geometric Unity theory. It is presented to argue that the seemingly baroque features of the standard model of particle physics are in fact inexorable and geometrically ...

Two years ago, a mathematician and physicist whom I've known for more than 20 years arranged to meet me in a bar in New York. What he was about to show me, he explained, were ideas that he'd been ...

There are a lot of open questions in modern physics. Most of the universe is missing, for example. The atoms we know about account for less than 5% of the mass of the observable universe - the rest is ...

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 ...

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 ...

Recent advancements in thermodynamics have increasingly drawn on the language of differential geometry and systems control to reformulate classical principles. Geometric structures offer a rigorous ...
