2024-12-28 Yang–Baxter operator (A mathematical operator used in theoretical physics and topology) Yang–Baxter operators are invertible linear endomorphisms with applications in theoretical physics and topology. They are named after theoretical physicists Yang Chen-Ning and Rodney Baxter. These operators are particularly notable for providing solutions to the quantum Yang–Baxter equation, which originated in statistical mechanics, and for their use in constructing invariants of knots, links, and three-dimensional manifolds.

2025-03-08 B92 protocol (Quantum key distribution protocol - B92) B92 is a quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol developed by Charles Bennett in 1992. It is a simplified alternative to the BB84 protocol, using only two non-orthogonal quantum states rather than four. The protocol relies on the no-cloning theorem and the fundamental principle that non-orthogonal states cannot be perfectly distinguished. Start Mitphysicsexpert (2)

2025-03-09 Kaluza–Klein–Einstein field equations (Five-dimensional Einstein field equations) In Kaluza–Klein theory, a speculative unification of general relativity and electromagnetism, the five-dimensional Kaluza–Klein–Einstein field equations are created by adding a hypothetical dimension to the four-dimensional Einstein field equations.

2025-04-01 Gopakumar–Vafa duality (Duality in string theory) Gopakumar–Vafa duality is a duality in string theory, hence a correspondence between two different theories, in this case between Chern–Simons theory and Gromov–Witten theory. The latter is known as the mathematical equivalent of string theory in mathematics and counts pseudoholomorphic curves on a symplectic manifold, similar to Gopakumar–Vafa invariants and Pandharipande–Thomas invariants.
