Mathematical physics occupies the fertile borderland between pure mathematics and theoretical physics, developing precise frameworks to formulate and solve the laws governing nature. It embraces the ...

The branch of mathematics known as topology has become a cornerstone of modern physics thanks to the remarkable—and above all reliable—properties it can impart to a material or system. Unfortunately, ...

One of the greatest challenges of modern physics is to find a coherent method for describing phenomena, on the cosmic and microscale. For over a hundred years, to describe reality on a cosmic scale we ...

Some scientists make discoveries. Others create entirely new ways of understanding the universe. Harish-Chandra belonged to ...

Explicit learning goals Interactive lectures Transformed homework problems (including a "bank" of potential HW problems) Common student difficulties & in-class group activities/tutorials Concept tests ...

At the frontiers of theoretical physics, many of the most popular ideas have one thing in common: they begin from a mathematical framework that seeks to explain more things than our currently ...

Explore the laws of matter and energy while mastering physics concepts that explain the universe, power innovation, and matter and energy. Participate in paid cooperative education and hands-on ...

Engineering physics blends concepts from engineering, physics and math while taking theoretical science and turning it into practical engineering. Engineering physicists often specialize in frontier ...
