Oscar wins that felt undeserved
This is is a post to vent my disbelief and frustration at some of the most baffling Oscar wins. Let me get this started; Eddie Redmayne for The Theory of Everything (2014), Rami Malek for Bohemian Rha...

**Theory:** When Tom Riddle "disappeared" in 1947 (estimate), he visited Castelobruxo, the Brazilian school of magic, and South America. There, he learned about Herbology and Magizoology, and particul...
We discuss the work of Hans Bethe and others in formulating a theoretical foundation for the nuclear shell model. Written for a general audience, this article describes the evolution from Brueckner's reaction matrix theory to the Moszkowski-Scott sep...
Disclaimer: I have absolutely 0 contribution in this discussion as the only thing I merely did is to translate (as close to word-to-word as I could) the thoughts of this user. Also, the discrepancies ...
For low dimension systems admitting a moment equation representation (MER), the development of an effective eigenenergy bounding theory applicable to all discrete states had remained elusive, until now. Whereas Handy et al (1988 Phys. Rev. Lett. 60 2...
The reformulation of field theory in which self-energy processes are no longer present [Annals of Physics, {\bf311} (2004), 314.], [ Progr. Theor. Phys., {\bf 109} (2003), 881.], [Trends in Statistical Physics {\bf 3} (2000), 115.] provides an adeq...
Motivated by recent research of aging in E. coli, we explore the effects of aging on bacterial fitness. The disposable soma theory of aging was developed to explain how differences in lifespans and aging rates could be linked to life history trade-...
Feb 21, 2026 · A thick theory, such as libertarianism or socialism, is not appropriate as the basis for a constitution in a pluralistic society in which the people hold differing views about the good (or justice).
A chain of metallic particles, of sufficiently small diameter and spacing, allows linearly polarized plasmonic waves to propagate along the chain. In this paper, we describes how these waves are altered when the liquid crystal host is a nematic or a...
1. pertaining to a clinic. 2. concerned with or based on actual observation and treatment of disease in patients rather than experimentation or theory. 3. dispassionately analytic; unemotionally critical: …
We present a version of the twin Higgs mechanism with minimal symmetry structure and particle content. The model is built upon a composite Higgs theory with global $SO(6)/SO(5)$ symmetry breaking. The leading contribution to the Higgs potential, from...
Let $h$ be a connective homology theory. We construct a functorial relative plus construction as a Bousfield localization functor in the category of maps of spaces. It allows us to associate to a pair $(X, H)$ consisting of a connected space $X$ and...
This paper is on developing some computer-assisted proof methods involving non-classical inequalities for Shannon entropy. Two areas of the applications of information inequalities are studied: Secret sharing schemes and hat guessing games. In the fo...
In this paper, we develop the theory of the necklace ring and the logarithmic function. Regarding the necklace ring, we introduce the necklace ring functor $Nr$ from the category of special $\ld$-rings into the category of special $\ld$-rings and t...
A theory is a set of interrelated concepts. 理論 とは 相互に関連した 概念の 集合の ことをいう A memory is something that you remember from the past. 記憶 とは 過去 から(今まで) 憶え ている …
The concept of matchings originated in group theory to address a linear algebra problem related to canonical forms for symmetric tensors. In an abelian group $(G,+)$, a matching is a bijection $f: A \to B$ between two finite subsets $A$ and $B$ of $G...
We show that the base polytope $P_M$ of any paving matroid $M$ can be systematically obtained from a hypersimplex by slicing off certain subpolytopes, namely base polytopes of lattice path matroids corresponding to panhandle-shaped Ferrers diagrams....

We study reduced products $M=\prod_n M_n/\mathrm{Fin}$ of countable structures in a countable language associated with the Fréchet ideal. We prove that such $M$ is $2^{\aleph_0}$-saturated if its theory is stable and not $\aleph_2$-saturated otherwi...
(SPOILERS for Season 2)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Hi - This has possibly been thought of before but it's something that struck me last night on re-watching the early part of Twin Peaks season 2 (only ...
