Freiling's Axiom of Symmetry

This is the revised and updated second edition of a well-established research monograph on the axiom of determinacy, written by an expert in the field. This axiom is a fundamental statement in set theory, and it is related to winning strategies in game theory.

The Schlumberger development team is pleased to announce the availability of Symmetry 2023.3 (247) process software platform. This platform offers a unique opportunity to model your process workflows in one environment, integrating pipelines, networks, and facilities models, while ensuring consistent thermodynamics and fluid characterization across the full system.

The third edition of the by now classic reference on rigorous analysis of symmetry breaking in both classical and quantum field theories adds new topics of relevance, in particular the effect of dynamical Coulomb delocalization, by which boundary conditions give rise to volume effects and to energy/mass gap in the Goldstone spectrum (plasmon spectrum, Anderson superconductivity, Higgs phenomenon). The book closes with a discussion of the physical meaning of global and local gauge symmetries and their breaking, with attention to the effect of gauge group topology in QCD.

SYMMETRY AND GEOMETRY. One of the core concepts essential to understanding natural phenomena and the dynamics of social systems is the concept of “relation”. Furthermore, scientists rely on relational structures with high levels of symmetry because of their optimal behavior and highperformance. Humanfriendships, socialandinterconnectionnetworks, trafficsystems, chemical structures, etc., can beexpressed asrelational structures. A mathematical model capturing the essence of this situation is a combinatorial object exhibiting a high level of symmetry, and the underlying mathematical discipline is algebraic combinatorics—the most vivid expression of the concept of symmetry in discrete mathematics.
