[@sbreheny]

The term "chaotic system" has specific technical meaning in mathematics and dynamics. It isn't just any deterministic but hard to predict system. It is a system whose state trajectory is critically dependent on initial conditions. This means that in general to predict the output with accuracy A over a timescale T takes an accuracy Aprime in the knowledge of the initial conditions, where Aprime goes toward zero with a rate which increases rapidly with T. For example, to predict the output to within 1% over 1 second might take an initial condition accuracy of 1%, but to predict the output to within 1% over 2 seconds might take 0.1% initial condition accuracy, and 3 seconds 0.001% accuracy, etc., so that in order to predict the output for even a short time period like 10 seconds would take an impossibly high accuracy in the initial measurements. Some chaotic systems even exhibit bifurcation, which means that at a certain time t after starting, the graph of all possible trajectories diverges sharply and discontinuously in the initial conditions, so that would you need infinite accuracy just to predict the output beyond that finite time t, but it is still deterministic in a sense because if you know the exact initial conditions, you still know which way it will go.

That was Schrödinger's Equation on the Whiteboard. It describes how the wavefunction of a Particle develops over time. In Quantum mechanics it is impossible to know the exact position of a particle. The particles wavefunction basically tells you the probability of the particle being in a certain place. You used the equation because even though for single particles the location of the particle is completely random, when you have many of them they start to act deterministically as a group, just like the beads in the Galton board! And everything we observe on a human scale is made up of so many particles, that to us, our world seems completely deterministic.

BenRickProductions perfect but you didn’t mention that solving the shrodinger equation gives boundary surfaces of atomic orbitals. And that you could have mentioned that the Heisenberg uncertainty principle is why both velocity and position can’t be measured at the same time - which gives for randomness and hence a closer explanation to the use of the equation

Khawab Raghuvanshi A pretty conjecture that says all the solutions of the Riemann zeta function(look it up, I can’t explain this in a KZbin comment) fall within a certain range.

[@blasttrash]

HeyGoogle determine whether collatz conjecture is indeed a conjecture or not.

[@legendariersgaming]

​@@khawabraghuvanshi8052 Aight, imagine you wanted to add together 1/1 + 1/4 + 1/9 + ... = (1/1)^2 + (1/2)^2 + (1/3)^2 + ... Well this sum actually does have a value, i.e. it converges, and it is equal to (pi^2)/6, which I will not explain here, but look for the Basel circle problem. Ok, now imagine replacing that exponent of 2 with another number, say s. Then you have a function of s, equal to the sum of (1/n)^s from n=1 to infinity. In other words, (1/1)^n + (1/2)^n + (1/3)^n + ... Well clearly this thing isn't defined for all s, like s=1 is just the harmonic series, which diverges to infinity. But... There's this function called the Riemann Zeta function. It takes in complex numbers, that is, numbers with both real and imaginary (b*i where i is the sqrt(-1)) components, and spits out another complex number. The Riemann Zeta function of a complex number s is written as ζ(s). But get this, the function actually *continues* the sum we just described using something in complex analysis called analytic continuation. Basically it extends the formula to include those numbers that don't make sense, like s=1. Interestingly for some s, ζ(s)=0. When s is a negative even integer (like -2, -4, -6, ...), ζ(s)=0, and these values are called the trivial zeroes of the Riemann Zeta function because (relatively speaking) they are easy to prove. However, the Riemann Hypothesis concerns those zeroes that are not negative even integers. Specifically the Riemann Hypothesis states that: All non-trivial zeroes of the Riemann Zeta function are complex numbers with real part (1/2), i.e. complex numbers of the form (1/2) + b*i for some real coefficient b. It's been proven that all non-trivial zeroes must lie in a "critical strip" where the real part is between 0 and 1 (in fact the proof is relatively easy, arising from the same formula used to prove the trivial zeroes), but the proof (or disproof) that they all must have real part (1/2) remains elusive. There is a $1,000,000 prize to anyone who can prove or disprove it (it is a Millennium Problem). The reason it's so important is because the problem relates to a lot, and I mean a *lot*, of other problems, including some regarding prime numbers. I won't go into any here, but take my word that if you prove the Riemann Hypothesis then you will go down in history as one of the greatest mathematicians to have ever lived.

[@vernonzehr]

This predication of random and "random seeds" from software is exactly why I was very annoyed and skeptical when decades ago my state lottery switched from ping pong balls to computer generated. Okay first off, I know I know, ping pong balls could be more or equal to digital generation as far as manipulation and predictability. My feeling at the time was if someone was going to cheat, make them work really hard at it. These days I think it would be easier to hack a computer based lottery draw than hacking the ping pong balls as happened in the past. The inside job cheaters injected water into all the balls except the winning numbers pre-picked to manipulate a play 3 bet. The lighter balls went up the shoot faster, heavier balls stayed at the bottom. They got caught because it was so clearly obvious something weird happened. My thought when the lottery switched to computer numbers for security and cost, was there was no way to double check a computer draw for manipulation. There were no ping pong balls to check later. No paper trail. Anyway I was convinced I won more with ping pong balls than with computer picks. :)

[@TheActionLab]

Well there was a mathematician who actually figured out one of the random functions and won the lottery twice in a row. You are correct.

[@vernonzehr]

@@TheActionLab Holy cow! I had no idea that actually happened! Back in the day, I worked for an ad agency that promoted all the games for the state lottery. I use to illustrate posters (before photoshop existed, airbrushing big piles of money is NOT fun. The masking is a nightmare). I was also a bit of a computer nerd... just a bit... and was familiar with random generators back in the late 80's early 90s as was experimenting with very simple programing on the Macs we used. When the lottery announced this change to computer numbers I really sort of kind of freaked out a tiny little bit. No one where I worked understood anything I was trying to tell them. No one agreed with me. When I tried to explain "random seeds" and how it related to computer programming their eyes would glaze over and they would feign falling to sleep, making little snoring noises. Yes I was kind of nerdy back then. I am sure I deserved it. :)

[@storm37000]

advanced govt security computers listen to radio static, audio noise, or radio decay to get real randomness. Not sure if the lottery uses any of that but it should with how much money is at stake.

From this we can also get the Eigen value of an Eigen function. The operator used here is the Hamiltonian operator.

I have a suggestion! If you can totally predict a coin flip knowing all of the initial conditions, can you build a device that will drop a coin with all controllable conditions so you can predict 100% accurately how it would land and actually demonstrate it? Meaning if you do the same exact conditions twice, you could play the two drop videos side by side and the coin would bounce off the table IDENTICALLY? would be really cool to see!

#HeyGoogle whats 0 divided by 0 dont say i have no friends

[@carlycarpenter9275]

Ok then u have no cookies

[@my3dviews]

Answer is 1. A number divided by itself is always 1. Don't care what anyone else says. :-)

[@falconsite]

My3dviews that’s true but because division can’t increase number it either has to be -1 or 0. Because anything divided by 0 is always 0 than it’s 0 out of those two. Hope that could help!

[@stevenmilnes2053]

The answer is undefined, it is not exactly known if it equals 1, 0 or -1, and almost is almost dependent on how you mathematically approach the problem, but you cant say for certainty, it is any answer

If you think about it, if nothing is random then everything that has happened from the beginning of the universe and everything that will happen is already predetermined. In other words you have absolutely no free will, feel insignificant yet?

[@waveplasma1369]

Hi Sans

[@slippery_gecko9274]

Actually we do you preddicted our free will

[@thecarsyndaily8899]

There’s just one error with that logic. You used the term “predetermined,” which implies some overarching consciousness or system making decisions on the outcome of the universe. However, I believe a better term to use is “inevitable.” This is because of the hypothetical concept that if you take a decision you made at “x” point in time, and then reset the entire universe to its exact position as it stood in that point in time, that decision would be the same. However, it wasn’t determined, it was merely unavoidable. You could argue that with enough information, every decision could be predicted. Collect all the variables, you could know the end result. But what if free will was accepted as information to collect? You could argue free will to be a combination of facts and influences leading to some statistical outcome as perceived by the person with the will in question. However, that still wouldn’t alter the inevitability because of the situation I showed. Free will and consciousness would still follow that concept. I’m glad I researched this. #BigQuestionsDebate20162017.

[@erazure.]

Carsyn Jacobsen the ‘system’ in question are the laws of Physics determined by the basic fields that our universe operates on. As for using all the variables in order to predict the future, if such a device was to be created it would need to be completely isolated and not included in the data in order for it to work, rendering it pretty much useless. The point I was trying to make was that time isn’t linear according to the theory, not moving in one direction as we perceive it at least, instead all moments of time throughout space are simultaneous and it’s just our perception of the order that makes it appear to be moving creating the illusion of free will and probability ect.

although its a 3 years old post it looks absolutely fresh for 2021:) by the way, Don't you think even the pure random examples (Quantum mechanics) might be actually predictable. but not yet for us... Our mathematics bases cannot work anymore... just like trying to predict a complicated phenomena with some basic maths and get to the conclusion that its random while it's not.

They can be predicted but chaos theory suggests that a tiny nudge in input value will result in a huge change after sufficient time, so the predictability is only to a certain degree depending on our precision of initial conditions

This chain of cause and effect continues on and must continue backwards. Without the first cause, the chain cannot exist. The first cause must be uncaused, exempt from the Law. It must have made the Law. It must be outside the Law.

I have two ideas. The first is to start at a 180° angle and record the level of chaos as you slowly approach 90° and maybe even go beyond. The second idea is to test it on a spinning platform where you slowly move it away from the center.
