The aim of the present letter is to critically review the stability of the Bartnik-McKinnon solutions of the Einstein-Yang-Mills theory. The stability question was already studied by several authors, but there seems to be some confusion…
Over fourty years ago, the physicist Polyakov proposed a bold framework for string theory, in which the problem was reduced to the study of certain "random surfaces". He further made the tantalising suggestion that this theory could be…
