Epic Effort to Ground Physics in Math Opens Up the Secrets of Time
SMRTR summary
Mathematicians Yu Deng, Zaher Hani, and Xiao Ma have solved a key part of David Hilbert's sixth problem, proving how individual particle behavior leads to complex fluid motion. Their work mathematically demonstrates why time flows in one direction, resolving a longstanding paradox between microscopic reversibility and macroscopic irreversibility in physics.
