  • MATH-PHYSICS PROGRAM

    CMSA 20 Garden Street Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138 United States

    In the past thirty years there have been deep interactions between mathematics and theoretical physics which have tremendously enhanced both subjects. The focal points of these interactions include string theory, general relativity, and quantum many-body theory. String theory has been at the center of the ongoing effort to uncover the fundamental principles of nature and […]
