More than a century before quantum mechanics was born, Irish mathematician William Rowan Hamilton stumbled onto an idea that would quietly foreshadow one of the deepest truths in physics. While ...

Theoretical physicists are trying to understand how the many possibilities that exist in quantum physics can become 'real.' A new model developed by UC Davis researchers suggests that there may be ...

A proposed mathematical proof that outlines the way information behaves in coded messages may have implications for black holes. The proof suggests that the radiation spit out by black holes may ...

A newly derived “q-desic” equation suggests that quantum effects may subtly alter particle trajectories across the universe.

Quantum computing is widely believed to be a revolutionary new technology. In fact, it is a double-edged sword. If efficient quantum computers can be manufactured in near future, many of the current ...

Two popular quantum computing algorithms for problems in chemistry may have very limited use even as quantum hardware ...

Nalini Anantharaman is a modern mathematics and physics titan, renowned for her unique ability to find order within the heart ...

Recent decades have witnessed remarkable progress in establishing rigorous mathematical frameworks for quantum field theory (QFT), conformal field theory (CFT), quantum gravity and string theory.

The promise of quantum technology and computing lies in its ability to parse the unknown potential of the invisible into visible and practical technology. The quantum level, after all, is that which ...

Big data has gotten too big. Now, a research team with statisticians from Cornell has developed a data representation method inspired by quantum mechanics that handles large data sets more efficiently ...
