      @Gennady Arshad Notowidigdo Just a question. Do you know any other more rigorous courses online about the subject or is this most likely going to be the most rigorous one. Let me know if there is a better course on the subject, then I will follow that one. If not, I'm very happy with this one.

    Professor Wildberger, I'm not a mathematician, I am a retired machinist and have always been interested in the beauty of the Platonic solids, so much so that I have made a precise set of them out of brass with others nested inside, like Russian dolls. perhaps if you are so inclined you may care to look at them on TH-cam.

  • @michaelcollier3333
    @michaelcollier3333 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think I do not know what it means to describe the set of roots of a graph.
    I have taken the problem example.
    I wrote a computer program to start with each possible singleton 1000 0100 0010 0001
    To do this I setup a matrix to describe this graph - it is
    -1 0 1 1
    0 -1 1 0
    1 1 -1 1
    1 0 1 -1
    This way I can take the singleton and 'multiply it' by this matrix and get the mutation
    The -1 gives the required subtraction and the 1 are where the nodes must be added
    So that makes the programming easy.
    Then I ran it for a depth of 50 on each singleton - stopping any search if I found a result I already had
    Starting with 1000 by these 19 mutations on nodes 0,2,0,1,0,3,0,1,0,2,0,1,0,3,1,0,2,0,2,3 I get the singleton 0001
    Starting with 0100 by these 6 mutations on nodes 0,1,2,0,1,0,2 I get the singleton 0,0,1,0
    Starting with 0010 by these 9 mutations on nodes 0,1,0,1,2,0,1,0,2,1 I get the singleton 0,1,0,0
    (I know should just be the reverse of the previous line but that is not the issue that concerns me)
    Starting with 0001 by these 39 mutations on nodes 0,2,0,1,0,3,0,1,0,2,0,1,0,2,0,1,2,0,1,0,2,0,1,0,3,0,1,3,0,1,2,0,1,0,3,1,2,0,1,2 I return to the singleton 0001
    But my query is, what does it mean to 'describe the set of roots'?
    How is one meant to present them?
    If one starts with a singleton and by a series of mutations ends up with another singleton does that mean one has described the 'set of roots'?
    Is there then a problem to see how the number of mutations from one singleton to another can be minimised or maximised?
    Or is one trying to maximise the sum of the node elements from each singleton?
    In what way should I alter the program to present 'the set of roots'?
    Thanks for your help.

    The question to is space-time discrete is long answered, it is, just because physicists keep using the stupid continuum maths for everything, doesn't mean that they don't realize it. Carlo Rovelli talks about this extensively in en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reality_Is_Not_What_It_Seems
    Do not let mathematicians and bad philosophers confuse you. Physics experiments long proved that our universe is not deterministic and is essentially quantized, not continuous. Anyone says otherwise is ignorant at best, willfully malevolent at worst. Many people would have to give up their positions if people would stop believing not just the 'big infinites' that extend limitlessly, but also the small infinites, that are required for all the BS continuum we invent to explain our own subjective world.

      @landsgevaer 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@ashnur Your content was very confident and sure. I don't think that is warranted since we don't really have *any* solid fundamental theory of the nature of space and time that includes both it "discreteness" and its "curviness".
      So I think that even "has shown" is too strong. "Suggests" seems appropriate. At best we have some descriptions that fit reality very well (but not exactly) under some fair number of circumstances (but not all) and these suggest spacetime is not as smooth as generally thought. So we may hypothesize that actual spacetime has a discrete-like nature too. How, we don't fully know; not like it can be subdivided into tiny Planck cubelets, likely. It seems more like it may be limited in the amount of information that it contains. Who knows...
      Being nuanced about how confident and exact you are about theories is a hallmark of science, just as much (and likely more) as the actual content of its best descriptive models are. Insisting on that is not pettiness.

      "Mathematics as such is always a measure, not the thing measured" - Wittgenstein.

      As for philosophy, continuity =/= infinity. Discrete can be coherently derived from continua, but not vice versa.

      @ashnur 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Most importantly, before I write any more, thank you for taking your time for an actual response. It does matter.
      tl;dr: the past and the future cannot be part of the present, but our brain paints such a picture, we understand the world using our brain which sees only what's continuous, so language and mathematics inherited this bias and we have to fight it constantly.
      I did not say we can describe reality "exactly" or "in all circumstances", so I am not sure why you have to go there. My confidence goes so far, that I can say, if someone shows me something that's continuous, I will have to change my mind. Otherwise, it will be really hard.
      What I did say was that the theory that the world is continuous leads to consequences that were disproven. I hope that's correct phraseology for you? No amount of experimenting can fully prove something, but even one counterexample can disprove something? I believe this is what happened to the continuous worldview. If the world would be continuous we would expect certain facts to be such and such, and we find the exact opposite.
      Apart from pointing to Rovelli and others who say the exact same thing as me, and probably could give much better arguments why they believe it so, I can also give my very simple reasoning, but I am afraid you will question every bit of information. Anyway, here it goes: reality cannot be continuous, because that would mean that the past and the future are real things (otherwise how could be continuously connected to the present?) and because we also know that reality at least at one level is not deterministic (e.g. the past and the future are not clearly defined based on the present) these two assumptions cannot be both true at the same time.
      I know that this fact is hard to swallow, I see smart people go so far to believe in such things as the 'multiverse' just to be able to keep believing in the reality of the continuum.
      On a much less philosophical note, one would expect smart people to notice a trend where physicists assume something is continuous and then have to change everything to quantized to make the equations work. Ultraviolet catastrophe, electron orbitals, Feynman diagrams, P!=NP just to name a few cases where if the world would be continuous, we would have to deal with very different problems.
      Furthermore, partly my confidence stems not from what I know from physics, but on what I know from personal experience. Our brain's main feature is to take an unimaginably large amount of information and to produce a 'continuous' experience from it. Basically, almost anything we perceive is through this. It's our brain that presents things as continuous, and creates the illusion of 'present' time that holds everything that's continuous.
      The fact is, that the A series of time cannot be correct, it yields clearly false assumptions, like the 'universal present'. I hope at least about this we can agree?
      But our brain creates the experience of the A series of time and our language is 100% built on it. You can observe the problems that stem from this in almost every minute of our daily lives, no need to be a scientist for it. So I just said, wait a minute, if I compensate for this, if I compensate for my biology expecting everything to be static, what is the alternative? And the alternative is that everything is a process, like Whitehead said. "There is becoming of continuity but no continuity of becoming"
      And lastly, what convinced me before everything else was the immense usefulness of this worldview, how it simplifies a lot of human problems to simple misunderstanding that can be corrected if all participants are willing, instead of arguing over whose worldview is the more 'real'.
