Recent decades have witnessed remarkable progress in establishing rigorous mathematical frameworks for quantum field theory (QFT), conformal field theory (CFT), quantum gravity and string theory.

TWA is one such semiclassical approach that dates back to the 1970s, but is limited to isolated, idealized quantum systems where no energy is gained or lost.

Ernst Mach found atoms useful. But he didn’t believe they were real. The 19th century physicist-philosopher gained his greatest fame as an atom denier. He believed that reality consisted of sounds and ...

Mathematical physics is an interdisciplinary field that employs rigorous mathematical methodologies to elucidate and model physical phenomena. It draws upon diverse areas such as differential geometry ...

Currently no commercially viable quantum computer exists. While a usable, functional quantum computer may exist in a few months, years, or even a few millenia (or a superposition of these states) we ...

Quantum Computing felt like Star Trek for the most part, but today it’s edging toward spreadsheets. Earlier this year, Google ...

A proposed mathematical proof that outlines the way information behaves in coded messages may have implications for black holes. The proof suggests that the radiation spit out by black holes may ...

Although quantum computing enterprises IonQ and Rigetti were previously all the rage, both have encountered sharp volatility ...

People often say that quantum physics is weird because it doesn’t seem rational. But of course, if you think about it, quantum physics is actually perfectly rational, if you understand the math. It’s ...
