Some thoughts on theoretical physics

Some thoughts are presented on the inter-relation between beauty and truth in science in general and theoretical physics in particular. Some conjectural procedures that can be used to create new ideas, concepts and results are illustrated in both Boltzmann-Gibbs and nonextensive statistical mechanics. The sociological components of scientific progress and its unavoidable and benefic controversi...

Some theoretical issues in heavy flavour physics

Some of the recent developments in heavy flavour physics will be reviewed. This will include an update on some of the Standard Model predictions, and a summary of recent measurements that may indicate the presence of new physics (NP). The focus will be on selected models of NP that are indicated by the anomalies in the current data. Observables that can potentially yield signatures of specific ...

Some theoretical open problems in data mining

This document contains a selection of open problems provided by participants of the data mining PhD reading seminar at the IT University of Copenhagen in fall 2009. It is not intended to showcase the “most significant” open problems in the field, but merely problems found interesting by the participants. In particular, the theoretical angle of the seminar is reflected. 1 Frequent itemsets — a r...
