Discuss Edward Witten Here, Free! Ambitwistor - Edward Witten He's arguably the most famous string theorist. He won a Fields medal, which is like the mathematical equivalent of a Nobel Prize. Beyond his numerous original contributions to string theory, field theory, and gravity, he more recently started the so-called "second superstring revolution" leading to M-theory. In fact, based on a study of papers published between 1981 and 1997, he was the most-cited physicist in the world: in that period, he published 138 papers, with 23,235 citations: each paper he published was cited an average of 168 times. (The next closest to Witten was the semiconductor physicist Gossard, with 16,994 citations of 419 papers.) Most physicists would be overjoyed to publish one paper cited over 100 times. See: http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/Witten.html You can also read about him in the book, Who Got Einstein's Office?.

You can make anything out of it; even thoroughly bad music I have to say worshipping Witten is like worshipping string theory. yquantum 23rd July 2005 - 12:49 PM Hi Nick, It seems to be a fad right now for some, others who have spend there careers on the subject, which I might add years night and day may be for naught. No ones really knows right now but very intelligent people are working because they see a future in the mathematics but it is very frustrating for wanting to answer what is just out of reach, but they believe there is a future in the theory. I have said this before; I just hope it is not a waste of time, if so much has been learned in the journey. If you read much on SS or M-t, you will see great promises, but no cigar and if no predictions then I say it is just a philosophy as you have stated in a strong but correct way. Until it can produce, it is like you said just a bad opus that should not be played.

Search MAA Online MAA Home Devlin's Angle July/August 2001 Witten at 50 Edward Witten the man who has often been described as the Isaac Newton of the modern age celebrates his fiftieth birthday on Saturday 26 August this year. I am sure that many mathematicians will want to join with me in wishing him the very best as he passes the half-century mark. Which, on the face of it, is a little odd, since Witten is not a mathematician but a physicist, a Professor in the School of Natural Sciences at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey. Why would mathematicians want to celebrate the birthday of a physicist other than the obvious fact that it's always good to have an excuse for a party? Can Witten really be compared to the great Isaac Newton, the seventeenth century genius who brought us not only powerful scientific theories of light and of gravity but calculus as well? I believe the comparison is entirely apt, in several ways. First, though, a few words about Witten the man. He was born 26 August 1951 in Baltimore, Maryland. He studied at Brandeis University, where he received his BA in 1971. From Brandeis he went to Princeton, where he received an MA in 1974 and a Ph.D. in 1976. He was a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard for 1976-77, then a junior Fellow there for 1977-80. In 1980 he was appointed a Professor at Princeton University, from where he moved across town to the Institute for Advanced Study in 1987. Now to the comparison of Witten with Newton. Although there is no doubt that Witten is a physicist, like Newton he is a powerful mathematician. Very much in the tradition of Newton, Witten's mathematics arises out of physics he does his mathematics in order to advance his and hence our understanding of the universe. The British mathematician Sir Michael Atiyah has written of Witten that:

8.4.1998 - Entrevista a Edward Witten, por Alicia Rivera, en El Pais «Cualquiera que investigue en la teoría de supercuerdas descubre que está llena de magia» Existe un ranking entre los científicos más importantes del mundo, un índice de impacto de los artículos que cada uno presenta en las revistas científicas de máximo prestigio y que es un buen indicador de la carrera de cada cual. Pues bien, el número uno en la lista de los 1.000 primeros físicos (1981-1997), y muy destacado sobre el segundo, es el estadounidense Edward Witten. Físico teórico, de 46 años, respetado como un genio por muchos colegas y por no pocos matemáticos (cuya Unión Internacional le concedió en 1990 la prestigiosa Medalla Field, algo así como el Nobel de matemáticas que no concede la Academia sueca), es la figura más destacada en el campo de las supercuerdas, un complicado entramado teórico que supera el gran contrasentido de que las dos vertientes más avanzadas de la física, la teoría relativista de la gravitación y la mecánica cuántica, sean incompatibles pese a que cada una por separado están archidemostradas. Ningún físico se siente cómodo con este divorcio recalcitrante, aunque no todos tienen la misma confianza en esta concepción de las supercuerdas, en que las partículas elementales (electrones, quarks, etcétera) son modos de vibración de cuerdas de tamaño inimaginablemente pequeño que exigen un universo con 11 dimensiones en lugar de las cuatro que palpamos. Las supercuerdas están en ebullición desde que hace tres años Witten dio un fuerte empujón a toda la cuestión al sintetizar brillantemente ideas que estaban en el ambiente, empujón que ha desembocado en la denominada teoría M.

Strings:Witten Perspektiven der Stringtheorie Interview mit Edward Witten, Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton (New Jersey) GW: In der allgemeinen Relativitätstheorie gibt es mit der Äquivalenz von träger und schwerer Masse ein grundlegendes Prinzip. Liegt der Stringtheorie ein vergleichbares Konzept zugrunde? Witten: Das ist das größte Rätsel auf diesem Gebiet in den letzten dreißig Jahren. Im Unterschied zu allen anderen bisherigen Theorien in der Geschichte der Physik, bei denen die konzeptionelle Fundierung mehr oder weniger gleichzeitig mit der Entwicklung der Theorie erfolgte, wurde die Stringtheorie durch einen erstaunlichen historischen Zufall entdeckt, und in den zurückliegenden dreißig Jahren haben wir versucht, uns an die eigentlichen Grundlagen der Theorie heranzuarbeiten. Auf dem Weg dahin ist eine ganze Folge von verblüffenden Entwicklungen gelungen. GW: Die verschiedenen Varianten der Stringtheorie sind in der Regel zehndimensional. Es müssen deshalb sechs Dimensionen "aufgerollt" werden, um zur vierdimensionalen Raum-Zeit zu gelangen. Richard Feynman bemerkte, dass sich die Anzahl der einzurollenden Dimensionen nicht aus der Theorie heraus bestimmen läßt. Ist das inzwischen möglich? Witten: Wir ((die String-Theoretiker)) wissen heute noch nicht wie das vor sich geht, hoffen aber auf die zukünftige Entwicklung.

Intervista a EDWARD WITTEN di Piergiorgio Odifreddi L'universo elegante Di recente una sua intervista è apparsa sull'Espresso, col titolo "Dio gioca a dadi", e il giorno dopo l'Avvenire ha commentato: "Vedete? Il nuovo Newton crede in Dio". Cominciamo dunque a chiarire questo punto: c'è qualche connessione tra scienza e religione? Le scoperte scientifiche non incoraggiano la fede religiosa. Non conosco abbastanza il pitagorismo per poter rispondere, ma credo che nessuna delle filosofie antiche influenzi il pensiero degli scienziati moderni. E in senso metaforico?
