Researchers from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Xiangtan University and Southern University of Science and Technology recently unveiled a possible connection between catastrophe theory, an area of mathematics that focuses on modeling sudden changes (i.e., catastrophes) and non-Hermitian physics. Their paper, published in Nature Physics, specifically shows that a structurally rich degeneracy, known as the swallowtail catastrophe, can naturally exist in non-Hermitian systems.

Enceladus — the sixth-largest of Saturn’s 146 moons — has a liquid ocean with a rocky floor under its bright, white and frosty surface. Ice volcanoes spew frozen grains of material into space, generating one of the many rings circling the planet.
Now, a team of researchers has discovered that those icy grains contain phosphates. They found them using data from Cassini, a joint NASA-European orbiter that concluded its study of Saturn, its rings and moons in 2017. Читать дальше...
In Samuel Beckett’s 1953 play, Waiting for Godot, the foppish aristocrat Pozzo reflects on his own angst and sadness, lamenting, “Let us not then speak ill of our generation, it is not unhappier than its predecessors. Let us not speak well of it either. Let us not speak of it at all.”

In 1978, from a shiny metropolis off China’s southern coast, a giddy Milton Friedman glimpsed the world as he thought it should be. “If you want to see how the free market really works,” he told viewers of his PBS series, Free to Choose, “this is the place to come.” He was speaking of Hong Kong, a place that had miraculously mined freedom and prosperity from “barren rock” through hard work, risk-taking, and a state “limited to its proper function”—a grim euphemism that Friedman meant as high praise.
