Her work on physics was nothing compared to her contributions to algebra and topology. Not only did she basically invent homology groups as we know them today, but she revolutionized the way we think about rings. The ascending and descending chain conditions in algebra are like bread and cheese for the culinary world.
- shardling 14y agoAs a physicist, I can't speak to her contributions to pure math -- but Noether's Theorem really is a vitally important part of modern physics. Bread and cheese territory there, too.
