Master Guidelines
"It is better to solve a simple problem in detail than a complicated one in a rough approximation”
, Lev Landau
"It is nice to know that the computer understands the problem. But I would like to understand it too"
, Eugene Wigner
"Shut up and calculate"
, David Mermin

Mathematical Physics

Modern Mathematics and Physics were born together, and together they have grown over the past 3 centuries with ever-increasing synergies — which we explore in our contexts; and which we expect will keep playing a prominent role in the future development of modern Science.
String Theory
Back
String Theory addresses many basic questions in Mathematics and Physics; of which we tackle: What are space and time made of? What are the
"quanta"
that build-up geometry, topology, and dimension? Can geometry or topology be quantized and, if this is the case, so can space and time accordingly?
Resurgence

Quantization assembles small
"quanta"
on top of each other, but this process diverges. Such divergence seemingly signals that certain crucial information is missing. We find that, to the contrary, hidden deep down in this divergence, lies the "Resurgence" of
all
missing information — solving quantization!
