On 30 September 1695, Leibniz wrote a letter to de l'Hôpital where he discussed the possible meaning of a half-derivative:

"It will lead to a paradox, from which one day useful consequences will be drawn"

Happy 335th, Fractional Calculus! https://t.co/M14rjNmB17

Fractional derivatives have applications to physics in connection with anomalous diffusion. Here’s a good introduction to them in that context: https://t.co/1JFl39vcQi

ICTP-SISSA Colloquium by Prof. John Michael Kosterlitz, Brown University, USA on "A Random Walk Through Physics To The Nobel Prize"

Abstract:
The talk is the story of my random walk through physics via Cambridge, Oxford, Turin and Birmingham finishing up at Brown University. I describe my very crooked path through life including physics and my other life as a mountaineer. I also include a somewhat simplified version of my prize winning work.

🍂 «داستان پیچیدگی: چرا بیشتر، متفاوت است؟» عباس ک. ریزی

بازار بورس، مغز انسان، دسته پرنده‌ها و شبکه‌های اجتماعی چه چیز مشترکی دارند؟! آیا ایده‌های یکسان یا ریاضیات توصیف‌کننده‌ مشابهی در پس پرده وجود دارد؟! ک. ریزی اعتقاد دارد نظریه پیچیدگی پیشنهادهایی در مورد این پرسش‌ها دارد!

نوبل فیزیک ۲۰۲۰ برای کاوشگران تاریکی

جایزه نوبل فیزیک امسال به اخترفیزیک‌دان‌ها به خاطر خدماتشان در زمینه بهتر شناختن سیاه‌چاله‌ها رسید. نیمی از جایزه امسال به راجر پنروز و نیم‌دیگر آن به طور مشترک به راینهارد گِنتزِل و آندره‌آ ام. گز تعلق گرفت. این جایزه به خاطر کشف این که تشکیل سیاهچاله یک پیش‌بینی بی شائبه از نظریه نسبیت عام است و کشف یک شی فشرده‌ی کلان‌جرم در مرکز کهکشان تعلق گرفت.
