«
From the vantage point of
theoretical computer science, it's much more apparent how rare it is for a problem to be efficiently solvable,» says Ankur Moitra, the Rockwell International Career Development Assistant Professor of Mathematics at MIT and one of the leaders of the MIT - USC - UCSD project.
He received a Ph.D. in
theoretical physics and advanced degrees in
computer science and applied mathematics
from the University of Paris XI (Paris - Sud).
The good news is (at least
from the perspective of
science) that the role of carbon dioxide in climate change is very well established — at the
theoretical level in terms of quantum physics, at the experimental level in terms of the study of the absorbtion and re-emission of radiation by carbon dioxide, at the numerical level (when equations get a little too complicated — but a good approximation can result
from intensive computation by means of our fairly advanced
computers), in terms of historical trends going back more than 500,000 years — and countless studies.
He holds an MSc in
Theoretical Physics
from the University of Zürich and a BSc in Physics, Mathematics and
Computer Science from the University of Cape Town.
