More than a century after publishing major papers in theoretical mathematics, German-born Emmy Noether continues to challenge ...

Imagine a juggler tossing balls into the air. The art of juggling is a dance between motion and pause, where the ball’s speed slows as it ascends, and then quickens on the way down. This dance reveals ...

Noether’s theorem is a fundamental result in physics stating that every symmetry of the dynamics implies a conservation law. It is, however, deficient in several respects: for one, it is not ...

Emmy Noether is responsible for an idea so important that it ranks alongside Charles Darwin’s concept of evolution by natural selection as a central and unifying principle in science. It made possible ...

Emmy Noether showed that fundamental physical laws are just a consequence of simple symmetries. A century later, her insights continue to shape physics. In the fall of 1915, the foundations of physics ...

In the early 1900s, mathematician Emmy Noether came up with a theorem to help resolve some problems with Einstein's theory of gravity, general relativity. Little did she know it would change physics ...

Amalie Emmy Noether—known as Emmy—is one of history’s greatest mathematicians. Her groundbreaking work, Noether’s theorem, serves as the foundation for today’s standard model of particle physics. Some ...

Dr. Tingxiang Zou, borders are an invitation rather than an obstacle. Tingxiang Zou is taking on a big new challenge at the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics (HCM), a Cluster of Excellence at the ...

When news breaks, you need to understand what actually matters. At Vox, our mission is to help you make sense of the world — and that work has never been more vital. But we can’t do it on our own. We ...
