Mathematical Physics No attempt will be made here to explain what mathematical physics is about. There is no general agreement even among the experts. Moreover, this field of research is regarded as somewhat dubious by many physicists. However, the following words of Maxwell are right on target: The first processes, therefore, in the effectual studies of the sciences, must be ones of ...

Directing the strokes of Ockham's razor From TBTF Log, 2001-05-27 Directing the strokes of Ockham's razor Discuss On a private mailing list, someone posted a couple of links about recent progress towards the development of a quantum computer, with the comment: Quantum computers provide irresistible evidence that the multiverse is real. I replied to the list: J.W.Burton will correct me if I'm ...
