Mathematicians have found solutions to a 140-year-old, 7-dimensional equation that were not known to exist for more than a century despite its widespread use in modeling the behavior of gases.
Several University of Texas at Austin mathematics faculty, including an incoming assistant professor, have seen their work spotlighted in the science publication Quanta in recent weeks. Distinct in 3D ...
The Kardar Parisi Zhang equation models surface growth. After forty years, researchers confirmed its two dimensional behavior using polaritons in engineered materials.
