Heisenberg Honeycombs Solve Veneziano Puzzle
  In this paper we reformulate some results obtained by Heisenberg into modern mathematical language of honeycombs. This language was developed in connection with complete solution of the Horn conjecture problem. Such a reformulation is done with the purpose of posing and solving the following problem. Is by analysing the (spectroscopic) experimental data it possible to restore the underlying microscopic physical model generating these data? Development of Heisenberg's ideas happens to be the most useful for this purpose. Solution is facilitated by our earlier developed string-theoretic formalism. In this paper only qualitative arguments are presented (with few exceptions). These arguments provide enough evidence that the underelying microscopic model compatible with Veneziano-type amplitudes is the standard (i.e. non supersymmetric!) QCD. In addition, usefulness of the formalism is illustrated on numerous examples such as physically motivated solution of the saturation conjecture, derivation of the Yang-Baxter and Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations as well as Verlinde and Hecke algebras, computation of the Gromov-Witten invariants for small quantum cohomology ring, etc. Finally, we discuss several scattering experiments testing correctness of our calculations and propose some possible new uses of these ideas in condensed matter physics.
