Field patterns: a new mathematical object [PDF]
Field patterns occur in space–time microstructures such that a disturbance propagating along a characteristic line does not evolve into a cascade of disturbances, but rather concentrates on a pattern of characteristic lines. This pattern is the field pattern.

History of mathematics in mathematics education: Recent developments in the field
AbstractOver the last 40 years, exploring the possible interrelations between the history of mathematics and mathematics education has gradually emerged as an interdisciplinary domain of educational research and practice, and entered a maturity stage during the last two decades. This development calls for an account of the general issues concerning the

Reverse Mathematics and Algebraic Field Extensions [PDF]
This paper analyzes theorems about algebraic field extensions using the techniques of reverse mathematics. In section §2, we show that WKL0 is equivalent to the ability to extend F-automorphisms of field extensions to automorphisms of $\bar F$, the algebraic closure of F. Section §3 explores finitary conditions for embeddability.

The Mathematics of Quantum Fields
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the mathematics of quantum fields. Quantum field theory is the only satisfactory framework known that unites the principles of quantum mechanics with special relativity. Its goal is to describe elementary particles.

Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...
