A list of mathematical physicists worldwide.

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the search for a comprehensive list of mathematical physicists globally, along with their affiliated universities. A participant mentions a resource known as the math PhD genealogy site, which connects PhD recipients with their advisers, resembling a family tree for mathematicians. The specific site referenced is http://genealogy.math.ndsu.nodak.edu/. However, while this site allows users to search by research area, it does not provide information on the current teaching positions of the professors listed. Participants express familiarity with the site but acknowledge its limitations in terms of locating where mathematicians are currently employed.

Is there a list of people who are mathematical physicists around the world, and their universities?

Thanks in advance.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
There is the math PhD site that connects PhD recipients with their advisers like a math family tree.
Cant recall the link but its out there.
 
The site j93 refers to is this: http://genealogy.math.ndsu.nodak.edu/

While you can search by Research Area, it will not tell you where the professor is teaching. Still a very fun site though.
 
I know already this site, but thanks anyway.
 

Thread 'Self Learning Math/Physics'

Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...

Thread 'What should I do if I found a paper with same result as mine?'

Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation. This article's date received is 2022-11-15...
