Korea and France

Recently I was told about some Korean, and some French articles on my work regarding how chemistry and dynamical astronomy share a common math language. Unfortunately, the earth doesn't share the same language, so I don't know what they're saying! Perhaps Stephen can read the Korean.

As for the French, USC sounds so much more romantic when you call it l’Université de Californie du Sud.

Interestingly, the French articles don't mention Henri Poincare, the French mathematician who invented chaos theory while studying the three-body problem a century ago. His contributions to our understanding of the universe, and his reputation as the "last universalist," were the inspiration of my work!
