相关论文: About David Ruelle, after his 80th birthday

The goal of this book is to present classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, and statistical mechanics in an almost completely algebraic setting, thereby introducing mathematicians, physicists, and engineers to the ideas relating classical…

A reasonable segment of reliability theory is perpetrated to the study of failure rates, their properties, connections and applications. The present study focused on failure rate distributions and their shape properties. Failure rates of…

This is a review article for Encyclopedia of Complexity and System Science, to be published by Springer http://refworks.springer.com/complexity/. The paper reviews statistical models for money, wealth, and income distributions developed in…

This article is an expanded version of my talk at the Gathering for Gardner, 2012.

This article is a personal overview of the work of Dennis Sullivan who was awarded the 2022 Abel prize. It was commissioned by the Bulletin of the (Indian) Mathematics Consortium, and it will appear there.

An anecdotal account of the author's role in the origins of lattice gauge theory, prepared for delivery on the thirtieth anniversary of the publication of "Confinement of Quarks" [Phys. Rev. D10 (1974) 2445].

This chapter is based on a talk given at the Science and Ultimate Reality meeting in March, 2002, in honour of John Archibald Wheeler. In it, I discuss some questions related to what can and cannot be said about the history of a quantum…

Here I indulge in wide-ranging speculations on the shape of physics, and technology closely related to physics, over the next one hundred years. Themes include the many faces of unification, the re-imagining of quantum theory, and new forms…

In memoriam N.G. de Bruijn. In this article I present some highlights of De Bruijn's contributions in combinatorics. This article does not survey his work on eg Penrose tilings, asymptotics or AUTOMATH; other surveys on these topics are…

This essay is dedicated to Prof. K.K. Phua on the occasion of his 80th birthday. While the contents of this essay are based on our recent papers$^{1,2}$ published in the International Journal of Modern Physics A, I have added many personal…

We analyze the citation distributions of all papers published in Physical Review journals between 1985 and 2009. The average number of citations received by papers published in a given year and in a given field is computed. Large variations…

A review of the Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics Volume 52, 2014 (Ed. S.M. Faber, Ewine van Dishoeck, and John Kormendy) is given, with a perspective of understanding the current trends in Astronomy and Astrophysics. The impact…

This is the revised version of a Comment on a paper by C. Escudero (Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 116101, 2008; arXiv:0804.1898).

GGR News: -we hear that..., by David Garfinkle -Network of gravitational-wave detectors, by Stan Whitcomb Research Briefs: -New tests of general relativity, by Quentin Bailey Conference Reports: -Theory meets data analysis, by Steve…

One of the major developments of twentieth century physics has been the gradual recognition that a common feature of the known fundamental interactions is their gauge structure. In this talk the early history of gauge theory is reviewed,…

I review the understanding of bulges that emerged from the lively discussions and presentations during the meeting, and emphasize areas for future work. The evidence is for a diversity of `bulges', and of formation mechanisms.

This talk, dedicated to the memory of G. Giacomelli, introduced the round table on neutrinos held in February 2014. The topics selected for the discussion are: 1) the neutrinoless double beta decay rate (interpretation in terms of light…

I will share with the reader what I have learned from Richard Stanley and the ways in which he has contributed to research in combinatorics conducted by me and my collaborators.

We welcome Allagui et al.'s discussions about our recent paper that has proposed revisions to the existing theory of capacitors. It gives us an opportunity to emphasize on the physical underpinnings of the mathematical expressions that are…

My first paper exclusively about ridge regression was published in Technometrics and chosen for invited presentation at the 1975 Joint Statistical Meetings in Atlanta. Unfortunately, that paper contained a wide range of assorted details and…
