Michael Aizenman
Michael Aizenman (; born 28 August 1945) is an American-Israeli mathematician and a physicist at Princeton University, working in the fields of mathematical physics, statistical mechanics, functional analysis and probability theory. The highlights of his work include: the quantum triviality, triviality of a class of scalar (physics), scalar quantum field theory, quantum field theories in extra dimensions, more than three dimensions; a description of the phase transition in the Ising model in three and more dimensions; the sharpness of the phase transition in percolation theory; a method for the study of spectral and dynamical localization for random Schrödinger operators; and insights concerning Riemann surface, conformal invariance in two-dimensional percolation. Biography Aizenman is a Jewish American - Israeli who was born in Russia. He was an undergraduate at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He was awarded his PhD in 1975 at Yeshiva University (Belfer Graduate School of S ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Nizhny Tagil
Nizhny Tagil ( rus, Нижний Тагил, p=ˈnʲiʐnʲɪj tɐˈgʲil) is a classification of inhabited localities in Russia, city in Sverdlovsk Oblast, Russia, located east of the Boundaries between the continents#Asia and Europe, boundary between Asia and Europe. Demographics History The history of Nizhny Tagil dates back to the mid-16th century, when the Stroganovs received the right to possess land by the Kama (river), Kama and Chusovaya basins. In 1579 they founded the first settlement, the Utkin sloboda (settlement), sloboda, by the river Utka, the mouth of Chusoya. Fateyevo, the first Russian village in the Tagil region, was founded in 1665. In 1696, by the order of Tsar Peter the Great, the Vysokogorsky iron ore quarry was opened. Voevode Dmitry Protasyev was elected to search for iron and magnetic ores. The deposits were particularly rich, and included lodes of pure magnetic iron. The surrounding landscape provided everything needed for a successful and product ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
