Out of the limelight, theoretical physicists seek the math that can explain the universe’s particles and forces ...

String theory aims to explain all fundamental forces and particles in the universe—essentially, how the world operates on the ...

For decades now, many physicists have pursued the hope that equations involving an especially tiny “string” could provide the theory that solves nature’s ultimate subatomic mysteries.

he will develop his line of research in non-linear evolution equations, at the intersection between physics and mathematics, joining the String Theory and related fields team. The idea for the ...

If invisible string theory is to be believed, what (and who) is for you may very well be connected to you and stay connected to you, at least spiritually. If you’re a Swiftie, you probably ...

IN this volume Prof. Forsyth deals with a part of his subject which, for many reasons, is full of interest. Ordinary linear differential equations concern the physicist, on the one hand, by their ...

Readings that the podcast’s guests say shaped their thinking. “The Ezra Klein Show” explores ideas with some of today’s most dynamic thinkers. We cover politics, culture, history ...

But none have been as popular as modern portfolio theory (MPT). Here, we look at the basic ideas behind MPT, its pros and cons, and how it should factor into your portfolio management. Modern ...

Control theory is a branch of mathematics and engineering, which defines the conditions needed for a system to maintain a controlled output in the face of input variation. Classically developed ...
