A collection of short expository essays by the author on various topics in quantum mechanics, quantum cosmology, and physics in general.
I present a non-technical and necessarily biased and incomplete overview of our present understanding of the physical universe and its constituents, emphasizing what we have learned from the explosive growth in cosmological and…
The article provides a brief survey of the mathematics of some of the newly being developed so called "hybrid" (also called "multi-physics" or "multi-wave") imaging techniques.
This set of lectures covers the very basics of flavor physics and are aimed to be an entry point to the subject. A lot of problems are provided in the hope of making the manuscript a self study guide.
This article gives an overview, aimed at theoretical particle physicists, of some recent developments in cosmology.
The purpose of these lecture notes is to give a quick and introductory overview of holographic superconductors. Besides the actual description of the standard holographic superconductor, attention is paid to the motivations and the relation…
This resource letter intends to provide physics instructors - particularly graduate student teaching assistants - at the introductory university level with a small but representative collection of resources to acquire a familiarity with…
This short expository text is for readers who are confident in basic category theory but know little or nothing about toposes. It is based on some impromptu talks given to a small group of category theorists.
These Notes deal with various areas of mathematics, and seek reciprocal combinations, explore mutual relations, ranging from abstract objects to problems in physics.
A brief outlook on low-energy nuclear physics is presented. Selected recent developments in nuclear structure theory are highlighted and a few open questions are discussed.
These are expanded notes of a course on basics of quantum field theory for mathematicians given by the author at MIT.
Physics is introduced as a semantics of a formal set theory.
The purpose of these lectures is to describe the state of affairs in modern particle physics to young physicists who do not specialize in this subject.
A short review of phenomenological and experimental aspects of extra spatial dimensions at colliders is presented.
The purpose of this note is to provide a gentle introduction to basic universal algebra and (abstract) clones.
This text aims to explains briefly the formalism of quantum mechanics to mathematicians.
Defining interdisciplinary physics today requires first a reformulation of what is physics today, which in turn calls for clarifying what makes a physicist. This assessment results from my forty year journey arguing and fighting to build…
This is a broad and in places unconventional overview of the strengths and shortcomings of our standard models of fundamental physics and of cosmology. The emphasis is on ideas that have accessible experimental consequences. It becomes…
The aim of this paper is to introduce a mathematical logic based approach investigating why-type questions in physics.
This lecture note covers Relativistic Kinematics, which is very useful for the beginners in the field of high-energy physics. A very practical approach has been taken, which answers "why and how" of the kinematics useful for students…
