The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is a World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) recommendation which has widely been used in both commerce and research. As the importance of XML documents increase, the need to deal with these documents increases as well. This chapter illustrates the methodology that has been used throughout the research, discussing all its parts and how these parts were adopted in th...

This is the third seminar in our mini series detailing how Physics feeds into Geometry. In the first seminar I gave an introduction to Mechanics from a Mathematician’s point of view. In the second, Paul Cooper showed how some specific problems in Classical Mechanics give rise to problems in geometry. In this talk, I intend to do the same for Quantum Mechanics. What I would like to do is concent...

A gas that is confined to the left half of a container uniformly spreads over the entire available space as soon as the confining wall is removed. Yet we never observe the reverse process of a uniformly distributed gas suddenly concentrating in the left half of the container. Such irreversible behaviour is characteristic of many processes and is enshrined in the so-called Second Law of thermody...

It is an empirical observation that the Riemann zeta function can be well approximated in its critical strip using the Number-Theoretical Spin Chain. A proof of this would imply the Riemann Hypothesis. Here we relate that question to the one of spectral radii of a family of Markov chains. This in turn leads to the question whether certain graphs are Ramanujan. The general idea is to explain the...

This paper is intended to serve as a model for the first few chapters of future textbooks on continuum mechanics and continuum thermomechanics. It may be considered an update of the paper Lectures on the Foundations of Continuum Mechanics and Thermodynamics [N2] by one of us (W.N.), published in 1973, and an elaboration of topics treated in Part 3, entitled Updating the Non-Linear Field Theorie...
