Random geometry and quantum gravity represent interwoven themes at the frontier of modern mathematical physics. These fields examine the stochastic nature of geometric structures that underpin quantum ...

When speaking of our universe, it's often said that "matter tells spacetime how to curve, and curved spacetime tells matter how to move." This is the essence of Albert Einstein's famous general theory ...

The universe’s accelerating expansion has long puzzled physicists. For decades, dark energy, an unseen force thought to make up nearly 70% of the cosmos, has been the leading explanation. But a new ...

Science journalist Nadis and Tsinghua University mathematician Yau follow up 2019’s The Shape of a Life with an esoteric exploration of geometry’s role in explaining gravity and the structure of the ...

Every time a coffee mug drops, a satellite orbits or an astronaut floats, we are watching the same phenomenon play out under very different disguises. For centuries we have treated gravity as the ...
