On the Mathematical Theory of Interaction in Social Groups

IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics, 1974
Sociology is an area in which there are a great many verbal propositions concerning the behavior of human groups under various conditions. If we accept the fact that it makes sense to discuss and analyze social phenomena in terms of quantities that are not precisely defined in a mathematical sense (such as the levels of joint activity, interaction, and

A group theory of group theory: Collaborative mathematics and the ‘uninvention’ of a 1000-page proof

Social Studies of Science, 2012
Over a period of more than 30 years, more than 100 mathematicians worked on a project to classify mathematical objects known as finite simple groups. The Classification, when officially declared completed in 1981, ranged between 300 and 500 articles and ran somewhere between 5,000 and 10,000 journal pages. Mathematicians have hailed the project as one

The Movement of Sap in Plants

Science, 1928
AFTER the conclusion of his recent lecture at the University of Vienna, Sir J. C. Bose was kind enough to lend me his instruments for the repetition of some of his more important experiments in the Institute of Plant Physiology of the University. As this is the first time that his experiments have been successfully repeated in a European laboratory ...

Mathematical Methods for Physics

2022
This detailed yet accessible text provides an essential introduction to the advanced mathematical methods at the core of theoretical physics. The book steadily develops the key concepts required for an understanding of symmetry principles and topological structures, such as group theory, differentiable manifolds, Riemannian geometry, and Lie algebras ...

The Mathematics of Symmetry: Group Theory

1995
The conceptual approach to symmetry, which is the subject of Chapters 8–10, is the best approach for understanding the concepts involved in symmetry and the significance of symmetry in science. (The reader choosing the “concept” track will have finished reading those chapters at this point.) Such understanding is, indeed, very important.
