  2. List of unsolved problems in mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unsolved_problems...

    Many mathematical problems have been stated but not yet solved. These problems come from many areas of mathematics, such as theoretical physics, computer science, algebra, analysis, combinatorics, algebraic, differential, discrete and Euclidean geometries, graph theory, group theory, model theory, number theory, set theory, Ramsey theory, dynamical systems, and partial differential equations.

  3. Symmetry breaking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_breaking

    An example with continuous symmetry is given by a 3d analogue of the previous example, from rotating the graph around an axis through the top of the hill, or equivalently given by the graph (,) = (+). This is essentially the graph of the Mexican hat potential. This has a continuous symmetry given by rotation about the axis through the top of ...

  4. Spatial Mathematics: Theory and Practice through Mapping

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_Mathematics:...

    Nevertheless, Mousavi recommends this book as an "introductory text on spatial information science" aimed at practitioners, and commends its use of QR codes and word clouds. [1] Stein praises the book's attempt to bridge mathematics and geography, and its potential use as a first step towards that bridge for practitioners. [2]

  5. Wave equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_equation

    The wave equation is a second-order linear partial differential equation for the description of waves or standing wave fields such as mechanical waves (e.g. water waves, sound waves and seismic waves) or electromagnetic waves (including light waves).

  6. Position and momentum spaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position_and_momentum_spaces

    Mathematically, the duality between position and momentum is an example of Pontryagin duality. In particular, if a function is given in position space, f(r), then its Fourier transform obtains the function in momentum space, φ(p). Conversely, the inverse Fourier transform of a momentum space function is a position space function.

  7. Extra dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extra_dimensions

    Large extra dimension, mostly motivated by the ADD model, by Nima Arkani-Hamed, Savas Dimopoulos, and Gia Dvali in 1998, in an attempt to solve the hierarchy problem. This theory requires that the fields of the Standard Model are confined to a four-dimensional membrane , while gravity propagates in several additional spatial dimensions that are ...

  8. Position (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position_(geometry)

    Radius vector represents the position of a point (,,) with respect to origin O. In Cartesian coordinate system = ^ + ^ + ^.. In geometry, a position or position vector, also known as location vector or radius vector, is a Euclidean vector that represents a point P in space.

  9. Mathematical formulation of the Standard Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_formulation...

    This article describes the mathematics of the Standard Model of particle physics, a gauge quantum field theory containing the internal symmetries of the unitary product group SU(3) × SU(2) × U(1). The theory is commonly viewed as describing the fundamental set of particles – the leptons, quarks, gauge bosons and the Higgs boson.
