Foundations of the Exact Science Vrije Universiteit Brussel
From the birth of science, mathematics and physics have played a major role and their evolution has always been closely connected. Pythagoras, Aristotle, Ezeno, Euclid, Archimedes, etc . . . till our times, Riemann, Hilbert, Einstein, Poincare, Heisenberg, Schrodinger, Dirac, Von Neumann, Godel, etc . . . Have all wandered between mathematics and theoretical physics, investigating the fundamental scientific problems of their times. In this ...
Theoretical Physics Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The Main research subjects are: 1. Aspects of non-lineair dynamics: - integrability and chaos - Direct methods for the investigation of integrable and nearly integrable systems; - Analysis of integrable hierarchies and their reductions; - Spectral decomposition of chaotic maps, perturbations of integrable maps involving transition to chaos. 2. Elementary particle physics beyond the standard model: from supersymmetry to strings - Study of ...
