    In approximately 1971 I attended a seminar by Feynman on the PCT theorem at UC Berkeley. The auditorium had sliding black boards as in this video except that they were huge and heavy and so they hung from pulleys with one of the boards serving as the counterweight for the other. Feynman, upon sending up one of the boards to write on the other said to the audience "Oh look. I don't have to do any work." Laughter from the all-physicist audience.

    Gaussian represents some sort of symmetry which in 3-d can be built up by infinitely many slices of "disks". With that, it, no wonder, is somehow related to Pi.

  • @user-pn9zm8qg7k

    I found the general method, it is more geometric
    it change I(x) to (I(x))^2=I(x)I(x*)=I(x)I(y)=V(x,y)
    so we need to integrate z(x,y)=e^((-a)(x^2+y^2)), plot on 3 dimension
    the integral basically is finding the volume between z(x,y)=e^((-a)(x^2+y^2)) and z(x,y)=0
    we found symmetry around z axis, so we change the coordinate to cylindrical coordinate
    the original integral=z(x,y)dxdy=e^((-a)(x^2+y^2))*dx*dy
    intergral after=z(R,angle)dRd(curve)=e^((-a)R^2)*dR*(Rd(angle))
    the additional R from d(curve) made the integration solvable
    them I(x)=(I(x)I(y))^0.5, solved
    I still like your method more
    Your method is much easier to understand

    Don't you have to use uniform convergence in order to interchange integral and limit at 13:25? Because that's not allowed in general. For example, observe the integral from 0 to 1 of n*x^(n-1) dx and let n go to infinity.

    Hey I just wanted to ask about when you are solving for the c value, you don't touch the variable u even though it is dependent on t. As I recall, t is equal to zero, and u is equal to x/t, which would make u undefined. I would just like to ask how it still works even though that part is unresolved.

      Actually, I got a little feedback
      I don't really have too much talent in calculation. So yeah, I ran into a lot of issues in learning.
      The good thing is I would know exactly what it takes for a normal person to understand this kind of proof.
      When I'm trying to understand any proof and analysis, I always struggle in why do this now, why do that now, and somehow it just work out. In this kind of situation, I usually would look the proof several times to find reasons to makes the method make any sense. But sometimes it just really hard to figure it out. But only by doing this I can really apply this method (or even figuring out a method) in other problem.
      My suggestion is make a summary after the derivation, going back and explain why do this now, why do that now. But this might be why watch you derive is better than on textbook. Sorry for bad grammar, English is not my native language. I hope this will help you out:)

    This was super cool. However I have a problem:
    You introduced u as x/t and then you treated u as a separate variable, for example, when you took the limit as t goes to infinity.
    Are we allowed to do that? I mean you got to the correct answer, so I suppose there must be some validity in what you have done...

    • @michaelmischko847
      @michaelmischko847 6 років тому

      Dont say that - you easily get correct results from doing wrong maths, so your question is legit. My guess looking at it would be that you got lim t²(u²+1) = lim t² = inf (because lim u²t² = constant) and lim u²+1 = 1 and thats why he doesnt even mention that u = u(t).

  • @anjunakrokus
    @anjunakrokus 5 років тому

    In the beginning of the video you state that a is in the real numbers, but later on you use that the limit of t -> infinity of e^(-at^2) = 0. If a is negative, this does not hold anymore.
    The proof still holds for a>0 of course and it is still beautiful.
    Do correct me if I'm wrong though.
