Mar 5, 2014 - More precisely, the fields described by propagating quantum strings seem to lose their gauge symmetry! 6 days ago - Group theorists, often interested principally in the abstract, have been known to neglect the vital importance of producing funky gizmos that exhibit the symmetries they have theorized about. Internet maths celeb Vi The object they've designed is four-dimensional and made of monkeys, and they've done the closest thing possible to making one, which is to 3D-print an embedding of it into our three-dimensional universe, also made of monkeys. When considering this subject, it seems natural to think of symmetric things that appear in nature. And there is much of symmetry about in the organic planet. 3 days ago - In order to visualize the symmetries of the quaternion group, mathematician Henry Segerman, sculptor Will Segerman and mathemusician Vi Hart have designed a four-dimensional object, a hypercube, and put a monkey at If that doesn't sound interesting enough, the post also has an animated image of the monkeys emerging from the 4th dimension, a video on “…how to make sculptures of 4D things,” and a pointer to: The Quaternion Group as a Symmetry Group. Apr 20, 2006 - Yesterday, I talked about the basic intuitive idea of what symmetry means. Today, I'm going to try to take it a bit further. Suddenly things aren't looking so miraculous. Apr 28, 2010 - I hope that it is sufficient to suggest to the interested reader the possibilities for an analysis of history in terms of subtle symmetries. Jun 27, 2013 - (The term was coined by John Conway in his book The Symmetries of Things. Apr 7, 2012 - If there's something I have read quite a few instances, it really is that physicists (and by association astronomers), really like symmetry. We cannot think about the world without thinking of it in historical terms. Oct 21, 2009 - In part three of "What on earth has Teake been doing for the last four years?" I'll talk a little on how symmetry appears in nature.
