Right, but he took mathematics and physics courses during his history major. A B.A. is very flexible, believe it or not. That's how he got accepted into the pure mathematics program at Princeton.
This guy is the only physicist who won field madel of mathematics..!! ED WITTEN is one of the smartest person living today and he is absolutely a genius..!!
This lecture almost explains the intricacies of the prep line at the Taco Bell where I work. I once got the same explanation when I called a customer service rep in India. Do the best students get to stay after school and clean the erasers?
@9:19 given LHC results c.2019 you might want to get down to N=0 SUSY Ed. Makes String Theory inconsistent huh? Too bad for string theory. But don't cry. If SUSY is never found, it will not mean String theory is useless, in fact it has been incredibly useful in proving gravity is compatible with QM in principle, but likely strings just aren't our world, we have something obviously similar but different.
I am not a string theorist or a particle physicist or a professional mathematician, but an electrical engineer. Yet, it is strange that I do get the hang of the topic, implying that deep down, nature is simple.
--today if you can't teach a better faster modern way than taking too much time using chalk; nevermind...if the best mind on earth does so --who really cares. Yes ! his message is infinitely higher -but we got learners and TEACHER!
I feel like scientists could prove, using properly defined mathematical tools, could create many different theories, without requiring them to have any validity..
+Jara Ja Indeed, the whole point of String Theory is to make it into a fully well defined mathematical theory, however that would not prove the theory. Reminds me of a quote Feynman once said that goes along the lines "No matter how beautiful your theory is, if it doesnt agree with experiment, it is wrong"
Me too man. I've tried learning this stuff but it's just beyond me. Hopefully someday I can just plug a cord into my head and download all the information and "see" what this guy sees.
I reccomend watching fredric schuller's series which is on the maths required for theoretical physics which will give you a chance at understaning string theory th-cam.com/play/PLPH7f_7ZlzxTi6kS4vCmv4ZKm9u8g5yic.html
In a high-vaulted gothic chamber, witten in a chair at his desk, restless.Witten:Ah! Now i´ve done physics. i´ve finished relativity and Quantums. And sadly even strings. taken fierce pains, from end to end. Now here i´m a fool for sure! No wiser than i was before.
*The science of Distorting reflective surfaces/ mirrors* You have just entered twilight zone of pure mind and imagination, using mathematical language (of multiple dimensions and projections on curved surfaces)Trying to prove the hypothetical with another hypothetical, an Exercise in futility.
He is very very very very slowly getting it from god....god said the hidden things belong to me.and not man..yet god is mercyfull.and can open the closed..if he chooses...yet a beggging person can get a blessding and have the door cracked a little by god
I don't pretend to understand anything that's happening. I'm just here to witness a genius in his element.
Allow me to make you company. :)
I´m an accountant, and made my day... ! how can i enjoy this guy´s lecture so much...??!!

I've just ran over the numbers, Ed seems to know what he is doing.
😂
I over g-string 7:26
?
lmao
Keep coming back to these lectures that one day would start comprehending them
This dude was a history major in college (no kidding)...
no idea, but its true

Supposedly he also read Springer books like crazy. His father was a mathematician too, IIRC.
@Ron Maimon witten's wife is a theoretical physicist, can you imagine how smart his kids are?
Yikes! This fella's intellectual capacity sure does reinforce the notion that 99.999% of us are just meat with eyes.
This guy must be from another planet :)
Totally agree with Witten so he's quite right about things.
I incorporated the what the F-theory while watching this....
This guy is the only physicist who won field madel of mathematics..!! ED WITTEN is one of the smartest person living today and he is absolutely a genius..!!
There's also Roger Penrose, a mathematician who won a Nobel prize in physics. He's actually my PhD advisors, advisor.
@@charlesvan13you’re at Cambridge or Oxford? Are you doing your PhD in Mathematics or Physics?
@@kw7807
My PhD advisor is at Stony Brook. I graduated in 2006.
He's the only fucking genius who could understand a lot of things - I hope he won't die soon
wow....some superb content my man !
Obviously.
I mean, its all clear :D
I agree

I hope I will be able to somehow understand what's going in when I'm done with my physics degred
Genio total
My intuition ... there is something wrong here in this way of thinking...but can not explain why yet. Need more think about it.

I like 4-dimensional subspace

You understand Ricci flow?
are you talking about Christine Ricci's menstrual cycle?

Tried to listen in 0,5x speed. Sounded a lot more like me... :D

With ed who needs mushrooms. ....hes fantastic 😊😊
It's all Greek to me!
And I'm Greek! So... τρέχα γύρευε!
Welcome to the church of String Theory. Profess your faith in your lord and savior Dark Matter. Bishop Witten will give today's sermon.
I HAVE RESURRECTED AT LEAST 67 PEOPLE.
