Summary: Probabilistic methods have a wide range of applications in several areas of mathematics, including analysis, geometry, combinatorics, computer science, number theory or graph theory. It is a highly mathematical story but with clear implications to questions of physics. But dynamical laws are expressed in the form of mathematical equations, and if we ask about the cause of the universe we should ask about a cause of mathematical laws. Differential Geometric Methods in Mathematical Physics. His approach is in line with Einstein's belief in the power of mathematical geometry. Quantization Methods and Special Quantum Systems. He opposed the application of the paradigm of mathematics and physics to all courses of study. Classical fluid dynamics and the Navier-Stokes Equation were extraordinarily successful in obtaining quantitative understanding of shock waves, turbulence and solitons, but new methods are needed to tackle complex fluids such as foams, suspensions, gels and liquid crystals. More than 30 books and nearly 400 papers to his credit – on such topics as the unification of general relativity and quantum mechanics, multiverse theories and their limitations, geometric methods in relativistic physics such as noncommutative geometry, and the philosophy and history of science. The course provides an introduction to these methods, whose common theme is the use of the Counting and sampling problems in statistical physics and computer science.
