Fifty Years of Patchwork Physics

Over the past five decades, theoretical physics has accumulated a collection ofphenomenological models sustained by free parameters, imposed symmetries, perturbativeadjustments, and renormalization procedures that do not originate fromany closed variational principle.

Abstract

Over the past five decades, theoretical physics has accumulated a collection ofphenomenological models sustained by free parameters, imposed symmetries, perturbativeadjustments, and renormalization procedures that do not originate fromany closed variational principle.
