"All of these ideas have shown promise at some time or other, and some are still under active investigation. But my conclusion after all this work is that the part of algebra that shows the most promise for genuinely useful applications to fundamental physics is the representation theory, real, complex, integral and modular, of the group GL(2, 3). There is, of course, no guarantee that a viable theory can be built on this foundation. But it appears to be the only part of algebra that both has a reasonable chance of success and has not already been exhaustively explored in the physics literature. It is therefore worth serious consideration." — "Potential applications of modular representation theory to quantum mechanics," arXiv, May 28, 2021, revised June 7, 2021. |
