Mathematical Research from Toy Models - Professor Tadashi Tokieda

JOINT LONDON MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY/ GRESHAM COLLEGE ANNUAL LECTURE
Toy here has a special sense: an object of daily life which you can find or make in minutes, yet which, if played with imaginatively, reveal behaviours that keep seasoned mathematicians and physicists puzzled for a while.
The lecture will consist of tabletop demos of such toys, together with simple, robust modelling of what is going on. The theme that emerges is singularity.
The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: www.gresham.ac...
Gresham College has been giving free public lectures since 1597. This tradition continues today with all of our five or so public lectures a week being made available for free download from our website. There are currently over 2,000 lectures free to access or download from the website.

I'd love to take some topology classes from this man; He has an incredible mind.

[@ankurc]

he has lectures online search for African Institute of Mathematical Sciences

Gresham College is underestimated

13:00 like a 3mm difference in total height of the 7-gon.

A rare and beautiful insight into the universal nature of singularity and inverse cascade, like a rare view of god's divine design.
Thank Gresham, thank Tadashi, for this absorbing video.
Does Madhava's infinite series, converging to the value of pi , also have - 1/3 divergence?
Does matter fall into a black hole, or time going to 0, as you approach the event horizon also have -1/3 divergence?
The recent LIGO detection of merging black holes produced the same 'chirping' sound of the magnets.
If we could hear the sound of the big bang, would it also produce the same 'chirping sound?
I cannot wait to see more videos of such physical processes. Tadashi, don't disapoint me, please.

anyone from bihar?

What is so special about Bihar or Bihari??
