Mathematicians Prove Symmetry of Phase Transitions
The presence of conformal invariance has a direct physical meaning: It indicates that the global behavior of the system won’t change even if you tweak the microscopic details of the…
Mathematicians Prove a 2D Version of Quantum Gravity Works
It’s an elegant idea that yields concrete answers only for select quantum fields. No known mathematical procedure can meaningfully average an infinite number of objects covering an infinite…
