    Approaches to the Quantum Theory of Gravity by the PI Institute Two methods evolved in the theory of elementary particles to describe such quantized flux tubes. The one, called the loop method, studies them using the basic laws of electricity and magnetism, combined with quantum theory. The second, called string theory, postulates that the quantized…

  • Intuitively Balanced: Induction and Deduction

    A VIEW OF MATHEMATICS Alain CONNES Most mathematicians adopt a pragmatic attitude and see themselves as the explorers of this mathematical world” whose existence they don’t have any wish to question, and whose structure they uncover by a mixture of intuition, not so foreign from poetical desire”, and of a great deal of rationality requiring…

However, since this is impossible, there must be reasons for which there do not need to be further reasons: reasons which do…
