This course introduces a new paradigm for understanding symmetry in mathematics and physics called "diffusion symmetry." The goal is to provide a unified alternative to the traditional group theory approach to symmetry. By analyzing examples and concepts such as hypergroups and fusion rule algebra, students will learn how diffusion symmetry complements and simplifies the understanding of symmetry. The teaching method involves a theoretical exploration of various disciplines and concepts, with a focus on the diffusion of gas as an analogy for symmetry. This course is intended for students and enthusiasts of mathematics and physics who are interested in exploring alternative perspectives on symmetry beyond group theory.
