Jul 26, 2011 - But is symmetry a thing? Mar 7, 2012 - Finite Symmetry Groups. Today, I'm going to try to take it a bit further. Recently I've become very interested in abstract mathematics. Jan 26, 2014 - A few years later, an American auditor of Bartok's 1944 Concerto for Orchestra remarked, “Things must be terrible in Europe.” Of course, Bartok's music does not conform to “programmatic” intents. Aug 27, 2013 - The non-triviality of mirror symmetry involves quantum corrections. Actually there's a lot to learn even from this low level of sophistication. In fact, my main goal is to master the mathematics of general relativity thus I started from the symmetry of "things". Loosely speaking, the more symmetric something is, the more symmetries it has. Oct 29, 2009 - So we can classify objects based on how many symmetries they have. Apr 20, 2006 - Yesterday, I talked about the basic intuitive idea of what symmetry means.
