Dans ce colloque je discute la notion d'espace selon Descartes et Leibniz et j'y oppose le point de vue de Samuel Clarke et Isaac Newton comme solution pour comprendre la r\'ealit\'e du monde physique
Physics of dielectric mixtures are presented to stimulate discussion and to provide information on the recent advances in this topic.
In this small note I try to summarize some observations about Euclid's remarkable role in mathematics and about the ambient philosophy.
A few remarks on integrable dynamical systems inspired by discussions with Jurgen Moser and by his work.
Enrico Fermi lived from 1901 to 1954, a period of great progress in physics and a period in which opportunities for women to study and work in institutions of higher learning increased significantly in Europe and North America. Though there…
Since ancient times, mathematics has proven unreasonably effective in its description of physical phenomena. As humankind enters a period of advancement where the completion of the much coveted theory of quantum gravity is at hand, there is…
Some discussion of physical and geometrical interpretation of Einsteins theory of gravitation which is on basic of cosmology.
Personal view of author on goals and content of Mathematical Physics.
A survey is made of selected topics in flavour physics where real progress is expected in the coming half-decade, paying particular attention to those where New Physics signals may appear.
I discuss topics in Particle Physics applying the novel ontological formulation of Relativistic Quantum Field Theory due to David Bohm. I argument that particle physicists might too benefit from this truly novel way of thinking Physics.
This is a heuristic introduction to massive gravity based on an analogy with perfect fluids. I will argue that massive gravity can be thought of as Einstein gravity in the presence of a medium with unusual properties.
From the perspective of the physics of complex systems (1) we deal with the current state of mod-ern physics including the crisis in physics demonstrated through its epistemological, psychological, economical as well as the social context;…
Contribution to the volume "In Memory of Steven Weinberg" to appear in Nuclear Physics B.
It is shown that the correct expressions for momentum and kinetic energy of a particle moving at high speed were already implicit in physics going back to Maxwell. The demonstration begins with a thought experiment of Einstein by which he…
Prof. K.G Ramanathan was a legendary Indian Mathematician, working in Number Theory and a prolific Institution builder. Apart from this, he was an excellent teacher and influenced several brilliant students. In this article, we overview his…
We review some theoretical and experimental issues in unparticle physics, focusing mainly on collider signatures.
This article reviews the biography of the Swiss mathematician Marcel Grossmann (1878-1936) and his contributions to the emergence of the general theory of relativity. The first part is his biography, while the second part reviews his…
Short introduction to the gauge/gravity duality
We give a review of the mathematical and physical properties of the celebrated family of Calogero-like models and related spin chains.
The status in electroweak precision physics is reviewed. I present a brief summary of the latest data, global fit results, a few implications for new physics, and an outlook.
