Complexity Science and the Nobel Prize in Physics 2021
Offered By: Santa Fe Institute via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the groundbreaking contributions to complexity science recognized by the 2021 Nobel Prize in Physics in this lecture by Professor Daniel Stein. Delve into Giorgio Parisi's work on spin glasses and its far-reaching applications in biology, computer science, and beyond. Gain insights into the nature of disorder and complexity in physical systems from atomic to planetary scales. Discover why spin glasses, despite their limited technological use, have become crucial in understanding complex systems. Suitable for a general scientifically literate audience, this non-technical talk illuminates the significance of Parisi's solution to the spin glass model and its impact on our comprehension of disorder in nature.
