Birkhoffian systems represent a natural extension of classical Hamiltonian mechanics, offering a flexible framework to describe the dynamics of nonconservative systems. Emerging from the work of ...

German mathematician Emmy Noether (1882–1935) deserves to be remembered alongside Bohr, Heisenberg, and Schrödinger for her contributions to physics, according to this persuasive study. Journalist ...

The new Emmy Noether junior research group “Quantum Network Nodes” was launched at the beginning of the year. It focuses on research in the fields of quantum computing and quantum communication and is ...

Emmy Noether was praised by Einstein for her work in mathematical physics. Like Einstein, she fled Nazi Germany for the U.S.. A play about her life, "Diving into Math with Emmy Noether," will be ...

In the fall of 1915, the foundations of physics began to crack. Einstein’s new theory of gravity seemed to imply that it should be possible to create and destroy energy, a result that threatened to ...

Mathematics and theatrics combine in April in “Diving into Math with Emmy Noether,” a play about the pioneering and influential mathematician who is often referred to as the “mother of modern algebra.

Emmy Noether is the most accomplished mathematician you probably never heard of. She helped Albert Einstein with the math required to formulate his Theory of Relativity. And then she came up with what ...

On Thursday evening, audience members can meet a mathematician whose achievements took her places where society said her gender and ethnic heritage couldn’t let her go.
