You went off course: Lagrangian. : a function that describes the state of a dynamic system in terms of position coordinates and their time derivatives and that is equal to the difference between the potential energy and kinetic energy - compare hamiltonian. So... The gauge theories are those which retain all the dynamical information about a system (think game physics plus all the objects in a Halo level) upto isomorphism. ISOMORPHISM - An information preserving transformation (think tilting a page of text by 5 degrees), or encoding it in morse. DERIVATIVE - The measure of the *rate* of change of a function (think acceleration as the derivative of speed) BTW I am in no way an expert on Physics, I just have enough math to understand the wiki definitions with some work

Eric, I am a nano engineering student at UCSD and recently proposed a novel geometric lattice structure composed of orthogonal struts, oriented in a Chiral manner. Using this lattice I was able to reconfigure the Fano plane used to describe the algebraic structure of Octonions. This new Fano plane is composed of two chiral components that can act independently. I would love to share these ideas with you as I have struggled to find someone able to comprehend its importance. To the KZbin Community, I would sincerely appreciate all replies or favorites to this comment in order to hopefully bring this to the attention of Mr. Weinstein. Thank You -Alec

There are many thousands of comments here, but I am not sure whether anyone has attempted to describe any historical background to this work. Weinstein mentions work at the Oxford Mathematical Institute from the 1970s here (and even mentions my supervisor there), so I will provide some (rough) history. In the 1950s physicists Yang and Mills developed a generalisation of the Equations of Maxwell (for electromagnetism) suitable for the new world of quantum fields and quantum particles. What they discovered was that there was a quantum geometric symmetry - a circle - within Electromagnetism, now known as a U(1) symmetry. Their Yang-Mills theory kept the idea of the EM equations and replaced the group U(1) with potentially any such symmetry group, called by physicists a "gauge group". Ignored for a few years, physicists found the ideas worked well for groups SU(2) and SU(3) in the 1960s. Many Nobel prizes were won on the basis of related theories. Physicists continued to try to see if these Yang-Mills ideas worked for other groups, like SU(5). However as these groups get bigger more particles are predicted and these particles or their properties failed to be validated by CERN type experiments. Now the various ingredients of Yang-Mills theory are mathematical, and even geometric: symmetry groups, gauge invariance, field equations, etc and at Oxford mathematicians like Atiyah developed very general mathematical theorems based on this geometric set of ideas. These ideas bring in topology, manifold theory, algebra into the picture. These abstract theorems seem to have inspired Eric Weinstein (although he was not researching in Oxford, I believe). The other major heavily geometric theory in Physics is General Relativity, based on Manifolds also. So there are similarities with the Quantum Field mathematics when expressed geometrically. However there are also differences - this is why "Quantum Gravity" has not happened or been easy. One difference is that GR uses a "metric" of a special form, but these Yang-Mills theories dont use any metric. So "Geometric Unification" would give them a metric. Going the other way abstract mathematics would introduce "Torsion" - but GR has set Torsion = 0. Overall there has to be a "uniform manifold" - which I think Weinstein has made 14 = 4 + 10 dimensional. We are all familiar with the challenges that String theory has to justify physically its 10 or 11 dimensions, so a 14 dimensional manifold requires some justification. Weinstein's theory also predicts a larger gauge group - I think it is Spin(10). Particle physicists will want to know whether it predicts the right particles and properties. This is a very special type of calculation done in particle physics labs rather than in geometric mathematical Institutes. So we probably don't know, unless such work is published.
@amityway4 жыл бұрын
I have thought since about 2015 that there is an 18-dimensional unification. I'd like to know your thoughts. This theory was first proposed in literature /First published here by Baaklini: journals.aps.org/prd/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevD.25.478
@MultiAblee4 жыл бұрын
First of all thank you for the great overview! I am just a math undergraduate in his last few semesters and not a physicist by a long shot. So honest question, why is a 14 Dimensional Manifold a difficulty here? As far as I understand it the Problem of Stringtheory is that the Kaluza-Klein-Compactification of spacial dimensions not of symmetry dimensions is the problem. And Weinstein states here explicitly that (I think he calls it Endogenous Model) that U^14 is generated by X^4. So by Bundle theoretic viewpoints we should be in save waters there because our physical configuration space might be 14 dimensional but only 4 of those are spacetime and the other 10 are auxiliary symmetries like 2 U(1) and SU(2) and so on. Am I overlooking something here, I'd be really interested to know where if so but in any case thank you for your comment it really gave good context!

Mr. Weinstein, I dont have a background in differential geometry, but in my quest for a Masters of Mech Engineering I have done quite a bit of linear algebra, differential equations, and dynamic systems modelling which apparently gives me enough of a vocabulary to read the wiki pages on these topics (plus my lifelong amateur interest in theoretical physics) and actually arrive at some level of understanding of what you're doing. So... though your theory might be flawed (I'm not expert enough to say), I would like to thank you for finally opening this world to me. This is a paradigmatic example of the portal. Just to give one example, I now believe I should have been told about metric spaces long before my high school physics class tried to teach time dilation. Things make much more sense now! I'm diving into your world and its very exciting! Thank you. Edit: I have to reiterate, it really is such a beautiful way you frame the question to say can everything come from almost nothing, and then begin with x 4 and a straight jacket. Seriously we need middle schools to be playing these games!

You have inspired me to return to learning physics and attempt to as you say "go beneath Einstein" and unearth the source code of the universe. I want to be able to understand the lingo that you use when explaining your theory so that I can see what you see and help you change the scientific community to become more genuine and open to new ideas. Based on everything I have been presented I am inspired to continue higher education in order to obtain a clear understanding of the math and physics that you use in your theory. I am doing this because I believe that you are attempting to create a clear understanding of something that humans have been unable to clearly understand to this day. And I believe that there is a theory out there that will explain all the rules of the game. Now I am writing about this at 4 in the morning after not completely watching your video but I will keep on attempting to understand the picture your theory creates. and one day help accelerate the process and avoid getting bogged down by the ridged and harsh structure of our current scientific community.

Each level designates a major increase in complexity, and can roughly (though not necessarily intended to) correlate to: 0 elementary school, 1 high school, 2 undergraduate, 3 graduate, 4 PhD/post grad/professional. MATHEMATICS 0 Numbers, number line, arithmetic, circles, squares, triangles. 1 Variables, equations, algebra, exponents, quadratic equation. Functions and graphs. Simple vectors. Geometry (pi, area, volume, lines, graphs), trigonometry, log. 2 Calculus, differential equations including partial differential, linear algebra (systems, matrices, operators), Euclidian vector spaces and vector calculus. Complex analysis is useful. 3 Abstract algebra (mappings, groups, rings, fields, especially group theory and group representations). Lie groups (importantly the Poincare group). Basic differential geometry, in particular Riemannian geometry in conjunction with tensor calculus. (Affine geometry is useful too). Exterior algebra. 4 Topology (point-set, algebraic including cohomology, and differential), differentiable manifolds, differential forms. Fiber bundles: associated bundle, principle bundle, tangent and cotangent bundles. Category theory and functors. Vector-valued differential forms, specifically Lie algebra-valued forms and adjoint bundles. Killing fields, Clifford algebra, Weyl algebra, Hopf bialgebra are useful. PHYSICS 0 Motion, matter, basic concept of energy, atoms. Dimensions of space. Electricity. Magnets. 1 Newton's laws including gravity. Kinetic and potential energy and momentum. Elementary particle physics. Electric current, Ohm's law, electric and magnetic fields. Optics is useful. 2 Classical mechanics (coordinate systems, equations of motion, classical waves). Electromagnetism, potentials, Maxwell's equations. Quantum mechanics (Schrodinger equation, electronic structure of atom). Special relativity (Minkowski spacetime, 4-momentum). 3 Advanced mechanics: Lagrangian, Hamiltonian, variational principle, Noether's theorem. Quantum theory: Hilbert space, quantum harmonic oscillators, Dirac equation and Dirac spinors. Basic quantum field theory (i.e. canonical quantization), quantum electrodynamics. General relativity. 4 Gauge field theories, Yang-Mills equations, electroweak unification, quantum chromodynamics, standard model unification. Higgs mechanism. General theory of spinors. Modern formalism of general relativity. Note that M theory (supersymmetry, supergravity, superstrings) is good to be aware of but appears at odds with experimental evidence.

But this sounds very very interesting. I implore you, Eric, to have the conviction to develop these awesome ideas in a 'rigorous way' . I'm no good at notation either, but I would say you need a completely unified notation system to tackle this potential path to a unified field theory! Don't let detractors squash you. You speak of the problems with academia and science -- problems I witnessed and experienced well enough while at the University, enough so to put me off ever wanting to persue a PhD (also, I am probably not smart or conscientious enough) -- and you suggest the action that will help alleviate the hostility any theorist faces when they are suggesting something so radical: pay them more. I agree. But until that happens neither you, nor I, nor any 1 person can make that change happen. It would have to be something we all come together for. Until then, don't let that system stop you. This is that. This video was you not letting them stop you. Carry on! You have my support, the support of your fans. You're a brilliant mathematician, theorist and scientist. Honestly.

It's not that difficult. He's creating a system that transcends group or category theory in order to have a non contradictory maths network that can unify different mathematical physics equations in order to have a wholly consistent frame. Lol. In his ideation he's using a 4 dimensions fort instance axiom to reprisent nature. This seems arbitary but maybe it's to represent 4 forces of physics but I don't think that's it since this new theory assumes nothing in the physical world. If have gone with 0 dimensions . Anyways. He then wants to create differences in mathematical abstractions as scalers. So if you describe light in one equation you'd use a specific size and weight and scale that's consistent with other equations so therefore you'd be able to mix equations and no contradiction. You're using objective scaler functions. It's definitely going to solve alot.of problems . An example of this type of maths you can read about is univalent holotype theory. This is 22nd century maths

Currently watching the video but for those coming from the rogan podcast hes saying theres 12 dimensions. If you think of all dimensions as forms of measurements you have dimensions measured in x y z and those account for the first 3 dimensions. Then the 4th dimension of Time/space is also measurable... space referring the fabric of time and not the generic 3d space... and time referring to the passage of time. And from there the extra dimensions are also forms of measurement ie angularity and other things he mentioned in the podcast. Instead of restricting dimensions to the physical realms of 4 dimensions hes defining dimensions as all unique forms of measurement... some of which fall in our realm of physical observation ie the first 4 but 5-12 are more minute measurements but arent necessarily 'extra' ' newfound' dimensions. They are simply a more ornate and detailed way of breaking down our universe. The important aspect being it breaks down both the observational and non oberservational universe which according to him most of our universe is non observational which is why there are so many gaps in our knowledge between macro and micro physics and why they dont adhere to the same laws of physics. This is why people are looking for an everything theory to begin with. ie planets and atoms orbit but they dont adhere to the same law which means our understanding is broken. We can accurately depict most scenerios w our broken understanding but its broken. In a way his theory is like saying numbers arent something made up by people. The numbers we use are observed and are used to describe/count our surroundings... but more accurately our 'numbers' are a perspective of describing/counting our surroundings and because its a perspective it is not an absolute truth (unless observed directly in that dimension which is impossible for us). Thereby Numbers are absolute in another dimension and are not made up but we cannot see this 'absolute number' dimension so we have our 'observation of numbers' which suffices. dimension 5-12 are unable to be directly observed similar to numbers but they can be accounted for if included in equations. For example in chirality it is important to know orientation and angularity and w those accounted for we can know the proper orientation as opposed to a less descriptive inaccurate model of that thing. In chemicals they are build of the same elements so on paper they sound the same but w a diagram accounting for chirality you can see why they are entirely different chemicals. The most similar thing in common science to demonstrate his theory of 'measurements arent merely measurements but are correlating dimensions that have real world effects on physics' is that photons behave differently when observed compared to not observed. You cant know speed and location and measuring one causes uncertainty in the other. It also behaves as a photon or a wavelength depending on observation and context. So in a way the act of 'virtually' measuring/observing in fact has real world consequences on real world matter. This reinforces his theory that measurements could be a dimension correlating to other dimensions. So in conclusion Hes saying that we need to give these measuring methods their own dimension to fully account for the theory of everything. I know its not a fully detailed explanation and maybe is redundant but this is my basic understanding! Its not life changing understanding as it only redescribes our world but w this redescription perhaps we can crack the code to everything! Hope this helps!

do they REALLY behave differently? or is it just that if you looked hard into a sea that you cant interact with, and you saw a particle. like looking into the pacific and seeing an individual hydrogen molecule. the sea does not collapse if you measure that hydrogen molecule. observers in physics are a pretty catch all term also, a particle interacting with space is "observed" particles with each other they observe each other and data exists in the universe to be measured. so the first particles in our universe were observed the moment they came into space the very information created when they untangled space to come into being. the earliest we can see in the CMB and that quantum fluctuation painted into it one of those hidden dimensions. either way it is a fascinating take on field that got sidetracked by string for 30 years, look forward to more.

So in other words, you start with a flat hot surface (x4-a proto spacetime that is able to heat itself). You then add butter plus garlic (the differential operators) to allow the matter to be separate from the pan. This creates a U14 fiber which enables the heat (10 dimensional metric) from the pan to transfer to the matter via fermions while at the same time the meat and the pan stay separate from eachother with the help of convenient spinners. When you add the pepper tensor plus the salt tensor times the heat index divided by the resting time tensor, you have yourself the universe you see today.

When i was in grade 5/ grade 6 I was in love with science, specifically I loved reading university level reference books of the universe. Learning all the ideas behind astrophysics was the most interesting thing in my life. Due to an extreme aversion to math, I hated being forced to learn and practice things, adopted from my piano lessons as a child, I dropped my extreme interest around the end of grade 8. I picked up video games instead. Through highschool i took every university math course available, not because i wanted to or enjoyed it, but because i was told that is my key to a good university program. (I shouldn't have listened to my parents) I never did homework, sometimes failed my tests, once an exam. I sometimes like a unit or two, logarithms and some other units piqued my interest for maybe a minute. I hated math. I had a tutor to help me because i never payed attention in class, and didn't want to, and I always was learning the first units by 2/3 of the course being done. I will always remember the podcast you and joe rogan did together that lasted some 4 hours, which went into the ideas behind some very important equations. You taught me something important about my history with math. The ideas are the thing that captures me, the math itself is beautiful and I couldn't comprehend it because i didn't want to. You helped actually make me become excited and interested in math for the first time in my life. I am 22 years old in a business and environment bachelors, minoring in cognitive science, and i wish to learn more about math in my free time. Thank you for freeing me from my math prison.

Physics and Mathematics were both my favorite courses in college. Back in my high school days, I did a version of a ship in a bottle. Not once, but 3 times I put a garbage can on top of the schools flag pole - without using a ladder - without scaling the pole at all. My feet never left the ground. Just because a Mathematician or a Physicist hadn’t thought of it - doesn’t mean it can’t be done. "Everything is impossible until somebody does it" (Einstein)

Are there any textbooks or other sources of information you'd recommend for problem solving in general and for engineering in particular?

When I start with someone else's defined problem, their datasets and systems, I can do a decent job at analyzing and interpreting the data. When I start with my own problem though, I struggle with creating efficient, scalable ways of organizing data, processing it, maintaining it, etc. Engineering would help me get better at systems design, so I'm looking for recommendations on good books to start with.

Every time I watch this, I understand more and more of what is being explained and see the universe so differently. All the "holes" in the mainstream physics taught to society at large by mainstream educators always had contradictions and conflicts that I could never parse. I'm now watching this among Eric's other GU videos, for the 4th time and I still find it exhilarating and informative. I dream of working on this stuff some day, unfortunately I also have learning differences, so access to material and mentors is tough. It's videos like yours Eric that allow my understanding to evolve and my interest to continue, thank you for bringing this and all your other insights about thinking differently to the world. It has had a meaningful impact on my life!

How he was describing his hypothesis, all I could see is how if you watch the translations from the Riemann hypothesis on the complex plane. How at the underlying structure itself loops back onto itself. granted that is a 2d function.. this goes much deeper than that. 3blue1brown has a great video describing the motion I'm talking about. I'm at the edge of my limits with that abstraction though. Assuming his mathematics is correct, it's a great starting point for figuring out the universe. Good video Eric

The lecture was great, like watching The Book of Genesis being told in mathematical form. Got a little shaky about 3/4 through, but it's complex - there has to be room for reiteration. I hope you give yourself some grace. It's a brilliant theory. I'm excited to see it develop.

chomsky has insight into this; i think I am applying his insight correctly: language is but an emergent property of hardwired and highly responsive systems that exist not for language but for 'other' things and language is a curious emergence that provides insight into that which is hidden although with clear limitations; (note: I haven't watched more than a bit of the pod though; I don't really have time now; i stopped when I hit a query that needed to be resolved and didn't feel like parking it and also have no time really for the long form atm.)

Jesús Antonio Martinez yes, I too have read that blog on Scientific American a while back, when I first heard about Eric. At risk of engaging in a very convenient form of apologetics, his personal experience, as well as that of his immediate family, lends an air of credibility to his claims of shockingly unjust treatment by academia, which lead to, till now, his unwillingness to reveal the details to his alleged “cocktail party” physics. He claims to be finally ready to offer the technical details academia seeks (might it be that he is focused on his own mortality in the harsh light cast by this pandemic?) Let’s see how this plays out now that he is ready to offer more than the GU 101 Oxford lecture he his wetting our feet with through this first post...
