Sull'arena minuta,
Che, come eterna valle.
Verso un fondo nebbioso andra` perduta;

And art has done and must resign.

Watched the changing shape he cut,
Saw hoof harden from foot, saw sprout

Of a bloody Roman game,
As the prize of his endeavor,
Put on an immortal frame,
Through long agonies our Soldier
Won the crown of martial fame.

Each busy in his station,
Are few, compared with all the dead
Of every age and nation:
The world of life counts millions o'er,
That of the dead hath many more.

In science:
In this article we are concerned with a somewhat new arena for scaling and universality, namely that of RPT (random polynomial theory) and its algebro-geometric generalizations [Han, Hal, BBL, BD, BSZ1, BSZ2, SZ1, NV].
Universality and scaling of zeros on symplectic manifolds
In this section we Manifolds of (real) dimension two constitute the ‘arena’ for our studies. briefly summarize those features that are needed in our discussion.
Conformal field theory, boundary conditions and applications to string theory
The conventional approach to loop quantum gravity takes as the kinematical arena a Hilbert space constructed from traces of holonomies of closed spatial loops. (See for a recent review.) These traces are invariant under SU(2) gauge rotations of the holonomies.
Quantum general invariance and loop gravity
Nuclear physics, which long ago was the first arena to host studies of chaotic spectra of complex quantum systems, provides new insights into manifestations of many-body quantum chaos.
