Difference between Richard Borcherds and String theory

Richard Borcherds vs. String theory

Richard Ewen Borcherds (born 29 November 1959) is a British-American mathematician currently working in quantum field theory. In physics, string theory is a theoretical framework in which the point-like particles of particle physics are replaced by one-dimensional objects called strings.
