Goddard–Thorn theorem
ID: goddard-thorn-theorem
The Goddard–Thorn theorem is a result in the field of theoretical physics, particularly in string theory. It addresses the conditions under which certain types of models, specifically those involving extended objects or strings, can achieve a consistent description of physical phenomena. The theorem is named after physicists Peter Goddard and David Thorn, who developed it in the context of string theory in the early 1980s.
