Logic and geometric representations constitute an interdisciplinary framework that merges formal logical systems with spatial and diagrammatic structures. This field encompasses the study of classical ...

Geometric representation theory is a vibrant field that unites methods from algebraic geometry, category theory and homological algebra to probe the symmetries and invariants arising from algebraic ...

Researchers have created a geometric representation of the laws of thermodynamics. Their results were generally applicable regardless of the specifics of the interconnected reactions such as ...

Sam Raskin has been appointed the James E. English Professor of Mathematics. Raskin is a leading geometric representation theorist who joined Yale’s Faculty of Arts and Sciences (FAS) in the ...

Within mathematics, there is a vast and ever expanding web of conjectures, theorems and ideas called the Langlands program. That program links seemingly disconnected subfields. It is such a force that ...

We report the existence of an entorhinal cell type that fires when an animal is close to the borders of the proximal environment. The orientation-specific edge-apposing activity of these "border cells ...
