PHYSICS AND
MATHEMATICS: A MARRIAGE
MADE IN HEAVEN OR UNHOLY
ALLIANCE?
“A mathematician, like a painter or
poet, is a maker of patterns. If his
patterns are more permanent than
theirs, it is because they are made
with ideas”.
HOMAGE TO
PROFESSOR
SIR MICHAEL BERRY
CENTRO DE

G.H. Hardy, A Mathematician’s Apology, 1940.
We have the pleasure of inviting you to
the One-Day Symposium on Professor Sir
M.V. Berry Homage. This event aims at
nomination of Sir Berry as the First
Foreign
Member
of
Mexican
Mathematical Society. We want to use
this opportunity in order to exchange our
progress in some still unsolved generic
theoretical
problems.
In
2008
Nonlinearity Journal paper (21:T19-T26),
Professor Sir M.V. Berry has identified
three quantum obsessions in theoretical
physics to which he has returned
repeatedly over several decades: “Is there
a connection between the Riemann zeros
and quantum physics of classical chaos?
Can the relation between spin and
statistics
be
understood
within
elementary quantum mechanics? How are
the phase singularities in classical optics
smoothed by quantum effects?” (Berry,
2008). These problems as well as the
concept of randomness controlled by
space geometry (Mandelbrot, 2003) will
be the subjects for free discussion in this
event.
