Two recent developments suggest how familiar properties of gravity and matter may emerge from the quantum geometry that underlies loop quantum gravity. In everyday situations, and even in current high ...

Noncommutative geometry offers a radical reformulation of traditional geometrical concepts by replacing the classical notion of a manifold with a noncommutative algebra of coordinates. This approach ...

(via Sabine Hossenfelder) Positive Geometry is a recent approach to reformulate known physics and maybe even discover new physics. What is it and could it revolutionize physics? I’ve had a look and ...

A team at UNIGE has uncovered a geometric structure once thought to be purely theoretical at the core of quantum materials, opening the door to major advances in future electronics. How can ...

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 ...

Grigori Perelman electrified the mathematical world 3 years ago with his claim to have solved one of the most famous problems in mathematics (SN: 6/14/03, p. 378: If It Looks Like a Sphere…). The ...

Have you ever tried searching Google for answers to your homework, and more specifically, math and science problems? Back in the day, this was a hard feat, as Google would only lead users to websites ...

Warp drive has long been shorthand for “pure fantasy,” a narrative device that lets starships hop between stars without ...

In physics and materials science, the term "spin chirality" refers to an asymmetry in the arrangement of spins (i.e., the ...
