| | As I have mentioned before a theory in theoretical physics can be described as a list of quantum fields and the ways in which they interact. It turns out this is all you need to start drawing Feynman Diagrams. Feynman Diagrams are tools physicists use to calculate the probability of things happening: radioactive particles decaying,...

| | The Riemann Hypothesis Perhaps the greatest unsolved problem in mathematics is to explain the distribution of the prime numbers. The overall ``thinning out'' of the primes less than some number $latex {N}&fg=000000$, as $latex {N}&fg=000000$ increases, is well understood, and is demonstrated by the Prime Number Theorem (PNT). In its simplest form, PNT states that...

| | In order to celebrate mathematics in the new millennium, The Clay Mathematics Institute of Cambridge, Massachusetts (CMI) established sevenPrize Problems. The Prizes were conceived to record some of the most difficult problems with which mathematicians were grappling at the turn of the second millennium; to elevate in the consciousness of the general public the fact [...]

| A continuation ofthis, where I take notes on my workshop atHCSSiM. The real numbers are uncountable Today we used Cantor's diagonal argument to prove that the real numbers aren't countable. Namely, we assumed they were, and that we had a bijection $latex f: \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and then proved it didn't contain the real number...
