For every symmetric ("palindromic") word S(A, B) in two positive definite letters and for each fixed n-by-n positive definite B and P, it is shown that the symmetric word equation S(A, B) = P has an n ...

Rice University researchers have discovered a hidden symmetry in the chemical kinetic equations scientists have long used to model and study many of the chemical processes essential for life. The find ...

This paper is devoted to the numerical solution of the axially symmetric linear sloshing problem. A mathematical model of linear sloshing in a tank filled by an inviscid incompressible liquid is ...

HOUSTON -- (April 30, 2020) -- Rice University researchers have discovered a hidden symmetry in the chemical kinetic equations scientists have long used to model and study many of the chemical ...

Women have more orgasms during sex with men who are more symmetrical. Does this penchant for order cloud our ability to see the universe accurately? A new book by theoretical astrophysicist Mario ...
