The London Institute’s papers are the official record of our discoveries. They allow others to build on and apply our work. Each one is the result of many months of research, so we strive to make them clear, inspiring and beautiful, and publish them in leading journals.

Peculiar betas

The beta function for a class of sigma models is not found to be geometric, but rather has an elegant form in the context of algebraic data.
