Thanks to the Fridman podcast with Donald Hoffman, I've been introduced to this wonderful lecture! I don't understand anything, but it makes me want to try harder in my math courses. Hope I'll understand it some day!
Me too, would we have to study for years to grasp these ideas? Just to feel like I'm not just accepting something because someone with authority said it
me 2
hah funny that podcast direct me here too :D
This guy is brilliant without pretension. Most enjoyable.
These modern approaches to scattering are so damn beautiful and fascinating, although difficult to comprehend
drink ever time he says "Aaah"..and you will become amplituhedron!!!
@videosfromIAS is there no part 2 to this lecture? it cuts off at the end. was a Q&A recorded?
I love watching Nima lectures but I never have the first clue what the hell he's talking about.
so what do you love about his lectures then???
I thought I was the only one!
@@tosan1 I love his sheer passion and curiosity for big questions and he doesn't seem (at least to me) to be driven by vanity
@@cotidianastandup644 I like how the lectures feel accessible, and that the only thing I'm missing is the understanding of relevant vocabulary
Please turn on the closed captioning CC for this video. Thank you
A neat application of Toric Geometry.
Finally i know where C3Pi0 and R2D2 came from.
Only the most spiritually connected scientific questions get left behind subliminally until one day, this dude gets to be father of the Holographic Principle by the time ppl realise how important this theory is and Mr. Nima has unfortunately left us...
This is the only physics theory that explains the underlying fundamental principle of holographic entropy, a concept that will eventually overule interdimensional physics
Where is the rest of the lecture?!
And this amplituhedron you speak of, is it in the room with us now?
I consider this an advancement in the research towards the formula of the universe.
Inspirational because well held by the underlying maths, and yet complex enough to contain the tree of all Feynman diagrams... the multiverse from BigBang to DeepFreeze practically... and, put in the right variables, and you get addressing the multiverse.
So this is like trying to understand an alien language, so can someone just explain what this math is actually describing ... is this about particles and how they move, how they interact, or something utterly different? For the layman as best you can ... thanks.
Why does the picture cut out?
can anybody help me tunnel through an amplituhedron?
Take a deep breath Nima hahaha. ah... ah.. ah don't be stressed out dude... check your blood pressure my mans.
Y can’t u say infinity
Broooooooooooooooo the first half u mad funny ummm ya
lots of video glitches
why>
sangaku>
2 ahd 4 cannot be positive
He lost me at 1:40
this is how someone smarter than our teachers talks
I understand little of this, with vague notions, yet I see the beauty shining thru the man
16:20
how do ya like 'DEM apples?
Someone explain what this is please, im way too undereducated and dumb to understand this lecture, i heard in a pbs space time video this amp'hedron thing can lead to a time and space less understanding of the universe and im curious to understand how and why. I watched 20 mins of the video and realized i cant comprehend so i gave up. Please educate me and thank you.
I'm in the exact same boat as you! I saw that space time video too and can't find an easily digestible explanation of it
@@neonfeather7495 yeah it really sucks when youre intrested to learn but cant find the right medium. Please let me know if you find any good sources. Good luck good sir.
@@BM-rm7vr thank you good sir
Amplituhedron, another solid-liquid-gas-plasma relative-timing ratio-rates aspect-version, of elemental e-Pi-i conic-cyclonic coherence-cohesion objectives in wave-packaging formation.
Lots of vibrating dust motes and modular forms, solids of rotation assembled in GD&P landscape Perspective Quantum Operator Logic Fields Modulation Mechanism, 0-1-2-3-4-etc Singularity positioning Sequences. (Or, "I know No-thing" about No Boundaries Theories specifically, only Zero-infinity Kelvin flat-space ground-state i-reflection containment logarithmic condensation loci)
Although Amplituhedron and E8 Lattice seem to be pointing the way to new physics, it feels like a graphics engine being explained by Marcko Rodin. We need better visualization tools. What about Penrose Twistor space, this with Hopf fibration maybe just projections from a quasiproxidimensional pov. What about the scalar as a spatial dimension, with conformal transformations. We as fermionic beings can only simulate such possibilities.
I have never seen such a nonsensical sentence before.
@@nicholasandrzejkiewicz Do you have any constructive thoughts on these subjects. I'll admit, this was the first of Nima Arkani-Hamed's lectures I've had the pleasure to experience, and found his presentation style to be rather jarring at first, hence the comparison to Marko Rodin. I retract that statement. Which sentence are you referring to exactly?
@@David.C.Velasquez Neither of these point the way to new physics, quasiproxidimensional isn't a word, etc. I'm a student of mathematics familiar with all of these structures, but the way you threw around the words has no meaning. The E8 lattice is just the root system to a particular Lie Algebra, the hopf fibration is a particular structure produced by mapping a higher dimensional sphere onto a lower one. Please make an effort to learn the mathematics if you're actually interested.
@@nicholasandrzejkiewicz Ok... you're a STUDENT of mathematics, so bless us all with your omniscient wisdom. I'm aware that quasiproxidimensional isn't a word, but I'm sure YOU are aware that language falls short in capturing some abstract concepts. It was the only thing that I could come up with at the time to describe my thoughts... it was late at night, I apologize. I am also familiar with all of these structures, and assumed anybody that took the time to read would also be, so I could save the primer. Who are you to judge my level of intelligence from a couple sentences. I'll ask again... Do you have any constructive thoughts on these subjects? If not, go fuck yourself!
@@David.C.Velasquez Ad hominems are unnecessary, and I only felt the need to point it out to you because your use of jargon without context or meaning shows you to be arrogant. When I said that what you said didn't mean anything, I meant that it looked like a high schooler copied text from Wikipedia and mashed it together. I really welcome more people to math, but it doesn't need any more crankery. I'm not sure what you mean by language failing, because I've never heard that comment before nor have I seen someone need to make up words (and not even bother to define them). This is a lecture, what do you expect to be added to it?
I didn't think it was so much to ask of you to not ruin this forum for other people because literally all mathematics is available somewhere on the internet to be learned.
Who's the f'ing know-it-all at 6:00?
Yes. It's a structure...an idea is coming real from nothing.
For the k
Mathematicians have been muddling physics for too long.
That’s hilarious. Whenever the physics department at the local Uni run out of ideas they run to the Mathematics department to see what’s lying around. You sound either old or stupid. Go watch a Nat Geo doc about the Nazis, maybe the nursing home will put it on for you ask nicely
a new chum hoping someone is going to prove God is who He said He is/was/and evermore shall be
New Chum? You know absolutely nothing.
