Sunday, October 1st, 2006

The latest issue of the Bulletin of the AMS is out. The feature article is Expander graphs and their applications by Hoory, Linial, and Wigderson. Expander graphs are a kind of graph that are important in computational complexity theory; we discussed them once before. Y.S. Sinai, a mathematician who works on topics quite close to physics, has an interesting article on the cultural differences called Mathematicians and physicists = cats and dogs?.
