  2. Physical Review Letters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Review_Letters

    Physical Review Letters (PRL), established in 1958, is a peer-reviewed, scientific journal that is published 52 times per year by the American Physical Society. The journal is considered one of the most prestigious in the field of physics. Over a quarter of Physics Nobel Prize-winning papers between 1995 and 2017 were published in it. [1]

  3. Braid group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braid_group

    The composition of the braids σ and τ is written as στ.. The set of all braids on four strands is denoted by .The above composition of braids is indeed a group operation. . The identity element is the braid consisting of four parallel horizontal strands, and the inverse of a braid consists of that braid which "undoes" whatever the first braid did, which is obtained by flipping a diagram ...

  4. Run-length encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run-length_encoding

    Run-length encoding (RLE) is a form of lossless data compression in which runs of data (consecutive occurrences of the same data value) are stored as a single occurrence of that data value and a count of its consecutive occurrences, rather than as the original run. As an imaginary example of the concept, when encoding an image built up from ...

  5. Longest common subsequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_common_subsequence

    When the length decreases, the sequences must have had a common element. Several paths are possible when two arrows are shown in a cell. Below is the table for such an analysis, with numbers colored in cells where the length is about to decrease. The bold numbers trace out the sequence, (GA). [6]

  6. String (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_(physics)

    In string theories of particle physics, the strings are very tiny; much smaller than can be observed in today's particle accelerators. The characteristic length scale of strings is typically on the order of the Planck length, about 10 −35 meter, the scale at which the effects of quantum gravity are believed to become significant. Therefore on ...

  7. Physical Review - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Review

    In July 1958, the sister journal Physical Review Letters was introduced to publish short articles of particularly broad interest, initially edited by George L. Trigg, who remained as editor until 1988. In 1970, Physical Review split into sub-journals Physical Review A, B, C, and D.

  8. Limits of computation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limits_of_computation

    Many limits derived in terms of physical constants and abstract models of computation in computer science are loose. [12] Very few known limits directly obstruct leading-edge technologies, but many engineering obstacles currently cannot be explained by closed-form limits.

  9. Planck units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_units

    Some Planck units, such as of time and length, are many orders of magnitude too large or too small to be of practical use, so that Planck units as a system are typically only relevant to theoretical physics. In some cases, a Planck unit may suggest a limit to a range of a physical quantity where present-day theories of physics apply. [19]
