Many of the deepest and most important areas of mathematics have arisen from questions about extremes - shortest lines, smallest areas, densest packings, fewest colours. Mathematicians have been grappling with such issues for centuries, and some go back thousands of years. The isoperimetric problem, for example - which asks for the shortest path enclosing a given area - dates back to the mythological founding of the city of Carthage. By contrast, it was only in 2017 that the densest ways to pack identical spheres into a space of 24 dimensions was finally proved. Many of these problems are more than mere thought experiments. The origins of the Travelling Salesperson Problem - find the shortest route that visits a given set of cities - are self-explanatory. The Plateau problem, about the geometry of soap bubbles, now has applications as diverse as cosmology and biological development. Reaching for the Extreme tells the stories of these and other similar problems: their historical roots, the struggles to solve them, and the uses that can be made of the results, when such uses exist.

How the Quest for the Biggest, Fewest and Weirdest Makes Maths

Reaching for the Extreme

This volumes gives a complete description of the Universe's birth and evolution, based on the implementation of General Relativity and Quantum Field Theory. The presentation has a pedagogical profile and aims to make accessible, at a Master's Degree level, a wide number of subtle topics concerning the thermal history of the Universe. This also includes the discussion of themes still open to the scientific debate, such as the quantum nature of the cosmological singularity and the nature of the dark components of the Universe. To this aim, this volume is divided into three parts, the first two being dedicated to introducing the paradigms of Einsteinian gravitation and quantum physics. These are necessary for a self-consistent presentation of the third part which fully develops the analysis of the cosmological framework. The first two parts have their own independent value as compact, pedagogical introductions to the corresponding areas, and are completed by relevant monographic appendices. In this respect, the picture outlined in the two chapters devoted to quantum physics of gravitation is distinguished by the clear and complete synthesis it offers to the reader. The main targets of this volume are Master's Degree students; however, because of the advanced character of some selected topics, it can also be fruitfully adopted by PhD students and even researchers wishing to obtain an up-to-date knowledge of some of the topics addressed in the book.

Classical And Quantum Universe: Einsteinian Picture

The 'arrow of time,' a concept first introduced by Sir Arthur Eddington, reflects the one-way flow of time and its association with various physical asymmetries in thermodynamics, cosmology, quantum mechanics, field theories, and beyond. Yet, the foundations of the arrow of time continues to challenge physicists and philosophers, having profound implications across multiple theories and disciplines.This volume compiles insights from the international colloquium 'The Arrow of Time: From Local Systems to the Whole Univers' held in Buenos Aires in 2023. It explores diverse perspectives on the arrow of time in thermodynamics, quantum mechanics and cosmology, its relation to counterfactual reasoning, free will and the growing-block universe, the interplay between consciousness and time, and the implications of time-reversal invariance. Collectively, these contributions provide a rigorous and comprehensive analysis of the enduring enigma of time's unidirectional nature.

From Local Systems to the Whole Universe

The Arrow of Time

This book deals with aspects of Astrophysics, that are currently in vogue-dealing with compact objects, their energetics and some brief cosmology. In the context of energetics, it is very important to deal with aspects related to electromagnetic and plasma aspects on a curved background (general relativistic) and thus a full treatment of electromagnetics on curved spacetime is dealt with. Considering the plasma and magnetohydrodynamical features in the context of accretion physics few examples of charged particle motion in curved spacetime endowed with magnetic fields are studied, Also in the context of disk accretion few examples of disks with and without magnetic fields are also treated For those wanting to go in for research in the field of relativistic astrophysics the treatments given could serve as examples to follow.
