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 ...

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 ...

Physicists have a problem, and they will be the first to admit it. The two mathematical frameworks that govern modern physics, quantum mechanics and general relativity, just don’t play nicely together ...

Geometric representation theory is a vibrant field that unites methods from algebraic geometry, category theory and homological algebra to probe the symmetries and invariants arising from algebraic ...

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 ...
