Carlson|Mathematics and physics has had an intense symbiotic relationship in the last few hundred years, but even more so in the last three decades, due in part to the willingness of physicists to learn highly sophisticated "pure" mathematics, but also the willingness of mathematicians to learn some ph||"...the authors manage very well in filtering and presenting the central ideas whilst including a rich and precise list of references to the literature. ...will undoubtedly serve as an inspiration to the formidable mathematical question on the structure of the
The unifying theme of this book is the interplay among noncommutative geometry, physics, and number theory. The two main objects of investigation are spaces where both the noncommutative and the motivic aspects come to play a role: space-time, where the guiding principle is the problem of developing a quantum theory of gravity, and the space of primes, where one can regard the Riemann Hypothesis as a long-standing problem motivating the development of new geometric tools...
