The secret to a happy summer: Seville, causality and staircases!

www.podbean.com/eau/pb-7mjfk-1678759
We're getting excited for the summer here but before we all head off on holidays we catch up with Marianne in Spain at the European Congress of Mathematics, and Justin and Rachel in the UK having just attended some fascinating events in London and Cambridge held by the Isaac Newton Institute of Mathematical Sciences and the Newton Gateway.
Marianne told us about her recent interview with Avi Widgerson - winner of the Abel Prize in 2021 and the most recent Turing Prize. Justin told us about how the philosophical concept of causality can help us understand AI. And Rachel tells us about the surprising phenomena of anti-diffusion and how it links the patterns we see on Juniper, staircases in our oceans and fusion reactors of the future.
We'll be back with more podcasts in the Autumn, but here are some of our recommendations for your summer reading and listening pleasure!

On the mathematical frontline: Modelling behaviour
Переглядів 29Місяць тому
Source: www.podbean.com/eau/pb-hd4m7-166d2f4 How we behave can have far greater impacts than just on our own daily lives. For example who we interact with and whether we get vaccinated affects how diseases spread through the community. So if we are going to use maths to try to understand such a challenge facing society, we need to make sure we include human behaviour in our mathematical models....

    Ik- There is ONE(Ik) reality, the origin and the source of everything. The creation did not come out of nothing. When there was nothing, there was ONE, Ik. Onkaar- When Ik becomes the creative principal it becomes Onkaar. Onkaar manifests as visible and invisible phenomenon. The creative principle is not separated from the created, it is present throughout the creation in an unbroken form, 'kaar'. Satnaam- The sustaining principle of Ik is Satnaam, the True Name - EXISTENCE Kartaa Purakh- Ik Onkaar is Creator and Doer (Kartaa) of everything, all the seen and unseen phenomenon. It is not just a law or a system, it is a Purakh, a Person. If I am sentient then so to is The Totality Nirbhau- That Ik Onkaar is devoid of any fear, because there is nothing but itself. Nirvair- That Ik Onkaar is devoid of any enmity because there is nothing but itself. Akaal Moorat- That Ik Onkaar is beyond Time (Akaal) and yet it is existing. Its a Form(Moorat) which does not exist in Time. Ajooni- That Ik Onkaar does not condense and come into any birth. All the phenomenon of birth and death of forms are within it. Saibhang- That Ik Onkaar exists on its own, by its own. It is not caused by anything before it or beyond it. Gurprasaad- That Ik Onkaar expresses itself through a channel known as Guru and it is only its own Grace and Mercy (Prasaad) that this happens. Ik­oaʼnkār saṯ nām karṯā purakẖ nirbẖa­o nirvair akāl mūraṯ ajūnī saibẖaʼn gur parsāḏ. One Universal Creator. The Name Is Existence. Creative Being Personified. No Fear. No Hatred.

    Godel expresses wff's in odd numbers every number is prime relative to its own base n = n(n/n)=n(1_n) (primes do not include division by other numbers) Goldbach's Conjecture "every even number is the sum of two primes" n + n = 2n Godel's expression does not include even numbers in his defintion of wff's - they are therefore "undecidable" (o + e) = o is always odd so is undecidable because of the existence of even numbers (e+e) = e (o and e are sets of numbers). Proof of Fermat"s Theorem for Village Idiots c = a + b c^n = [a^n + b^n] + f(a,b,n) (Binomial Expansion) c^n = a^n + b^n iff f(a,b,n) = 0 f(a,b,n) <> 0 c^n <> a^n + b^n QED works also for n = 2. Someone go tell the physicists (Especially Einstein and Pauli) and also for multinomials (tell the cosmetologists..) (Hint: Wiles had to use modular functions, which are only defined on the positive half of the complex plane.) there are no negative numbers: -c= a-b, b>a iff b-c=a, a >0, a-a = 0, a=a if there are no negative numbers, there are no square roots of negative numbers. The ""complex" plane is affine to the real plane (1^2 <> 1, sqr(1^2) = 1 <> 2qr(1) (Russsell's Paradox; a number can't both multiply and not multiply itself). more on this on the physicsdiscussionforum (dot org)

    To answer that man's retort, no, it is not a necessary illusion to believe that mathematics is discovered. Mathematics is discovered, the discovery is not an illusion, and we know this because but we are aware of the fact that that the mathematical facts we study are grounded in abstract objects. These abstract objects and their properties and relationships are understood to exist a priori -- that is, they exist whether we are aware of them or not: for example, 2+2 is 4 whether we recognized it or not. By recognizing it, and by proving it, we haven't invented the relationship 2+2=4 -- we've merely discovered it. We discovered a relationship between two a priori objects. By this token, you can understand that mathematicians don't invent mathematical facts: they find them.

Where you are is the present and the part you’ve already seen is the past and it is still there.

That is sweet, and the man proved to be sweet as usual. But my critical faculties refuse to submit. I know some people who would not produce useful output in mathematics even if they persisted in this struggle for decades. I mean anything useful, let alone solving a centuries-old stubborn problem.
