Response to William A. Wilson on the limits and fallibility of science.
We study the situations when the solution to a weighted stochastic recursion has a power law tail. To this end, we develop two complementary approaches, the first one extends Goldie's (1991) implicit renewal theorem to cover recursions on…
We reply to Comment by J. Gemmer, L. Knipschild, R. Steinigeweg (arXiv:1712.02128) on our paper Phys. Rev. Lett. 119, 100601 (2017).
This note responds to Schwartz and Hutchison's Comment (arXiv:2403.06001) on our article (DOI:10.1002/adma.202309393). We think differences have arisen not in the experimental results themselves but in their interpretation: our more…
A recent article claims the Lorentz force law is incompatible with special relativity. The claim is false, and the "paradox" on which it is based was resolved many years ago.
A review article on perturbation theory
This correspondence answers the criticisms raised in McGaugh et al 2018 and Kroupa et al 2018.
This is an invited contribution to the Special Issue of "Foundations of Physics" titled "Forty Years Of String Theory: Reflecting On the Foundations". I have been asked to assess string theory as an outsider, and to compare it with the…
A non-technical discussion of the naturalness criterion and its implications for new physics searches at the LHC. To be published in the book "LHC Perspectives", edited by G. Kane and A. Pierce.
In this paper we delve into some important properties of probability distributions of the power type in order to provide some answers to questions recently raised in the literature. More precisely, we focus on the properties of maximizers…
In this comment we point out some wrong statements in the paper by Inc and Cavlak, Phys. Scr. 78 (2008) 045008
Some new semantic and syntactic characterizations of the members of the power pseudovariety $\mathbf{PCS}$ are obtained. This leads in particular to new algorithms for deciding membership in $\mathbf{PCS}$.
An overview of the evolution of computing-oriented publications in high energy physics following the start of operation of LHC. Quantitative analyses are illustrated, which document the production of scholarly papers on computing-related…
The comment is intended to answer the criticism presented on `Steady-state fluctuations of a genetic feedback loop: an exact solution' [J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 137}, 035104 (2012).] and provides the missing component for the complete analytic…
This article is a collection of letters solicited by the editors of the Bulletin in response to a previous article by Jaffe and Quinn [math.HO/9307227]. The authors discuss the role of rigor in mathematics and the relation between…
A brief account of some recent controversies about the teaching and learning of physics is presented. A shorter version of this outcome was accepted by The Physics Teacher, but publication is still pending.
We critically analyze a recent paper by D. Mermin and we compare his statements with Bell's position on the problems he is discussing.
An overview of recent theoretical developments in rare leptonic B decays is given. New physics effects on branching ratio and CP violation in the decays are analyzed in models beyond SM (supersymmetric models and two Higgs doublet models).
