Designed for graduate students and researchers in the fields of cognitive science, economics, finance, psychology and political science, this volume also describes probability models that can be applied to superstring theory and quantum cosmology.
More surprising still, explaining this behavior apparently requires an extra dimension of space, something that superstring theory conveniently provides.
Superstring theory is based on a four-dimensional space-time or physical metric, that together with an internal six-dimensional (Kauler) manifold (or compact Calabi-Yau space) for what can now be thought of as 1D-strings of the 6-line-a-point; forming a total 10-dimensional system.
