When Lee and Yang suggested that the laws of physics might not be invariant under spatial reflection — that there’s a fundamental difference between left and right — Pauli was skeptical. In a letter ...
Dec 7, 2025 There are two ways to stick SU(2) × SU(3) in Spin(10). One is good for physics; the other, alas, is easily obtained using the octonions.
Having spent a lot of time pondering the octonionic projective plane and its possible role in the Standard Model of particle physics, I’m now getting interested in the ‘bioctonionic plane’, which is ...
