Modern physics began with a sweeping unification: in 1687 Isaac Newton showed that the existing jumble of disparate theories describing everything from planetary motion to tides to pendulums were all ...

In this area we're focusing on the phenomena lurking between the domains of classical and quantum physics to expose the beautiful unifying mathematical ideas of asymptotics governing the behaviour of ...

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 ...

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 ...
