Your Daily Equation | Live Q&A with Brian Greene

[@yaserthe1]

Now in Oct 2024, when we live in dark timea, and the world is an even more dangerous place than it was during the pandemic, i remember these cosy marathon sessions on Fridays with the good Professor with such fondness , and a sense of Nostalgia.

[@timault8209]

Thank you.

[@Kokorikovaati]

Brian Greene I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for the work you do and the videos you make. I have followed you and your work for sometime now. I find that when something scientific that you specialize in is difficult to understand I always come to you and your videos for clarity and clarification. It is yoyr enthusiasm and love, yes love, of the science that keeps me not only intrigued, informed, and up to date but your ineffable passion for your field, the love of understanding and knowing to make it possible for others like myself to "get it" and understand it, the true gift that is you. So than you!

[@huskiehuskerson5300]

Ok but don't suck up man it's pathetic

[@Kokorikovaati]

@@huskiehuskerson5300 thank you for taking the time, precious time, out of your day that you won't ever be able to get back just to write that malicious and atrocious comment. Made you feel good hu? Think you were a smart and bad ass by doing do hu? Well 👏 to you. When you have something nice to day not something so subjectively hateful and erroneous, I welcome you back, until then your words and the co text in which you mean them have no room in this pantheon of higher intelligence and intellect. Those words are not welcomed and it is words like that which hold the collective back from reaching great new heights. And yes, I do accept your apology in advanced. 😊

[@Kokorikovaati]

[@gregorymegbert9086]

John Godolphin Bennett sure could cure his mush of unnecessary cluelessness the sweeping generalities referring to the end part in his book the dramatic universe Bennett lays out this topic in a concise way that avoids this. He calls it the domain of fact and the domain of value and of harmony which is not as easy or self evident as the other 2 what that means . His description in this 2500 page book in 4 volumes which has plenty of high level math and physics in it sure would help Greene's understanding. Emailed him directly on this I think he never got it.

Professor Greene, I've been interested in physics since I first saw Fabric of the Cosmos. I have since read a few of your books and I love WSF. I was recently able to share FotC with my daughter and she was really into it. I made my own two slit experiment with a laser pointer and a paperclip and I actually got it to work. After seeing that the flood gates were opened and the questions started. Questions I don't have answers to but look forward to helping her figure out. Thank you for what you do. When she wins the Nobel prize it'll be because of you.

Wonderful Brian, thanks so much for doing this. Really helps to survive the isolation.

[@AzimuthAviation]

I love WSF with panel discussions and here your personal vlogs on science matters and concepts are wonderful. Born in the 60s, I was inspired to make my way into space via the military pilot/ engineer route. I didn't make it to orbit but making passenger announcements flying an airliner when the conditions are right to understand that we live on an oblate spheroid rather a flat Earth isn't bad. My interest in reality were too broad to commit to one educational area in natural philosophy and eventually got a piece of paper with a degree having Physical Science/Mathematics printed on it. Childhood loves of geology and astronomy led into cosmology and theoretical physics. Your confession at 1:50:30 reminds me of a moonlit night and a stunning sky of thin cloud layers slowly moving in the winds aloft when the math kicked in as a thought experiment ran behind my eyes. Using only differential equations, I imagined Gravity Probe B taking a path through the picture at hand as a tangent on one of infinite spheres between my feet and the Moon. I lost my breath as if I were Paul were walking to Damascus as the model took motion with time bending with space. The maths do make reality pop into view. Thank you...

[@noelwos1071]

just like that, professor, it is amazing to me that you, as an excellent mathematician who illuminates the path of understanding the universe, say that you are a multiverse skeptic. but if we omit that model which most naturally supports mathematics itself, without the possibility of an infinite number of directions passing through each point, there is no mathematics

[@JATMA14383]

Hi Dr. Greene, Enjoyed your question and answer session today. Impressive! I learned a few things. It was nice to see that other people were thinking about some of the same questions I have given some thought to as well. I agree with your statement that one “needs” the math to more fully understand the significance of the different physics concepts. I am one of those people who does not have the math or the ability and, at this point, the time, to learn it so I do the best I can to understand the concepts minus the math behind them. It’s a bit like being color blind and going to a museum to appreciate great paintings; you see the painting but you don’t see all their depth and detail. It is better than not seeing them at all but there is something missing that hinders one’s appreciation of the painting. I think there are good science writers who understand a lot or just enough of the concepts that they can relay more of the science in a way that engages their readers. I think you are one of those people. I know I have learned a lot from your presentations and books. There was some mention of a class you have offered or may offer in the future on Relativity or some other topic. Where might I find a link to your classes? Many thanks for the answers to some of my questions! J. Tavano

[@travisfitzwater8093]

I like bread and butter, I like particles and waves. A particle is a disturbance in the ocean of bosons. Think of the Universe as a giant sea of fecund, fodderlike, and nourishing, ,"particaves" (a portmanteau of stem particles and waves) So, this ocean has an overall wave pattern and NO it does not always behave in the same manner but its properties are sufficiently monolithic that it can be recognized at any moment. Now this ocean "gives life" to energy and matter. The smallest constituents of this sea of stem particles are not made of energy -they create/produce/carry/combine/separate/offer/&take energy through their behavior and they interact in ways to produce all matter is and all of energy. As they interact their machinations build momentum. Think of this go-round of a "reality" as a benign storm of sorts engulfing the entire ocean of "everything."

I never get to catch this live, possibly because I don't live behind my computer, and I don't know when you broadcast them. but every night I pick a topic from my favourite astrophysicist (Issac Arthur, channel name is SFIA) than every morning for the last 2 or 3 weeks I wake up to Your daily equation. I watch them while I'm awake yes, but I already remember hearing it minus the see.also in the last few weeks i natualy see the world so different. I already know your face and voice well from world science festival, another one of my Faves. Thank you for doing this. I'm likely not the only person who dropped out in school because I seen that they where teaching us lies. you do an amazing job at breaking down post university concepts to a non grad that already thought these concepts to be more correct. ex beeing string, bozon higgs (that was discovered and confirmed around the year I dropped out) time and space being woven. I was failing science because I doubted the Einsteinian theory. I once was given a IQ/Aptitude test that advised I be given comprehension tests on high school material up to grad and only made to pass what I failed in test (this was in gr8, we didn't have middle school. k-gr7, gr8-grad) in turn they put me in the resource room (dummy room) I was to smart for them my friends and family clames anyways that whole type up is saying Thank you for what you are doing. there's thousands of me out there that never went on to university because they theorized this in the 80s-90s. they didn't get to learn university year 3 astro physics.they where failed if they agree with you.

Good morning, this is the first time I've listened to you and I'm very happy to finally come across a site where I can ask questions. I have a HEAP of questions, but I really would like to just start with this one cause its really important to me. I hope you find the time to possibly answer. With the internet nowadays its really hard to find what information is researched and provided by genuine scientists that have been peer tested. How does someone like me, totally new to this work out who is the scientist with tested and proven information as opposed to conspiracy? Of course I'm aware of the famous scientists Einstein, Stephen Hawking but these people have now passed? Who are our trusted and leading names today? How do I know what information is right and what is conspiracy? Some of the latter are really easy to work out but sometimes they are not. I need help to direct me and probably soooo many others to quality information please. Please take as long as you need to reply too :)

[@nathanokun8801]

To get some idea of HOW MUCH LARGER the second level of infinity -- usually thought of as the number of points on a line from 0 to 1 since you can map all points on any size line, such as PI for a larger line say from 0 to 10, onto this "standard" line by multiplying all of them by some constant, though there might be some infinity between this and the first level, the countable whole numbers and any combination of them such as all fractions made by them (1/2 and so forth), that we are as yet unfamiliar with -- you can do the following mental image: Think of the straight line from 0 to 1 stretched across a dart board. In you hand is a "super-pointed" dart whose tip is only one point wide (the "fabled infinitesimal "dx" used by calculus where "x" is any place on the line). You throw this dart at the line and hit it. On that line is of course an infinite number of countable point (made up by using fractions of the countable number to replace the whole numbers; same size infinity) Such points are 1/2, 1/4, 55/112. etc., etc. Also on that line are all of the non-countable points, such as PI/4, and so forth, made up of all unending decimals not made by a countable-number-only fraction. There is an infinity of both of them on that line, but what is the chance of your dart hitting, say, 1/2 or any other of the countable-number-infinity of points -- they are there, aren't they? THE CHANCE IS ZERO!!! The number of unending decimals not made from countable number rations is so much bigger than the number of countable-only-number-made fractions that you literally get (COUNTABLE-NUMBER-INFINITY)/(UNENDING-NON-COUNTABLE-DECIMAL-INFINITY) = ZERO as the chance of hitting on of the former. Thus, even infinity is negligible when dealing with different SIZES of infinity...

[@_John_Sean_Walker]

Jonathan, I don't think so because the speed of gravity is c. Tachyons could be an essential part of everything though.

[@eserkaraoglan2145]

GRAVITON IS ALREADY DEFINED AND IT IS MASSLESS WITH LIMITING SPEED, HOW MANY FORCE CARRYING PARTICLES WE NEED FOR THE SAME FIELD.

Rev Jonathan Barlow Allow me, please - here you go.

[@ikitclaw7146]

@@eserkaraoglan2145 we still havnt found a graviton, its the theoretical force carrying particle for gravity, so yes don't spread misinformation. and we know with a good degree of certainty gravity is limited to the speed of light, if the sun suddenly vanished it would take approx. 8 and half mins before we felt the effect of being released from its pull.. Also from the way I understand it, a tachyon would be faster than light but as you pass light speed "c" it would be traveling backwards in time since as you approach c time slows to a stop.

Does negative cosmological constant prediction pulling back string theory? Guys plz ans

[@peskii64]

22:32 I don't know anything about string theory, but the sum S = 1 +2 +3 +4 +5 +... can't be equal to -1/12 right? S is a divergent series and can't have a finite sum. You need to start with the assumption that S is finite to get that answer, which would be a false assumption. If S even had a finite sum how would that be -1/12, only adding natural numbers will always land you with another natural number and in that case you are saying -1/12 is a natural number. I have seen the proof for S = -1/12, but don't think it works using bare bones mathematics. Maybe if you implement some special type of math it would work. What do you guys think?

How do you run out of digits?

update, We traveled to Boca Chica to see the starship get built. & we got the S dual motor fsd last Christmas 🎄 😎 still have the cybertruck tri motor or 4 motor fsd on order, i got lots of solar & backup battery system to charge them both. i'm in TSLA too.

I have a question and it deals with Donald Hoffman’s theory on how we perceive reality. Given his Siri how does this effect our observations and knowledge based on our senses of the reality of the universe? I have never seen this topic addressed. Thanks and I love your show

[@jamesbarlow6423]

You never will from these people. They're fundamentally paid to preserve the status quo. They fear Hoffman because he can prove the likelihood of his theory. Now the big bang is becoming obsolete; but you'll never hear that from these yoyos.

Haven't had luck with my question. But perhaps the community has some thoughts on that: *What are your opinions on Penrose's "interpretation" of QM?* Penrose argues that taking the equivalence principal seriously in QMical gravity (resp. QFTical gravity) one runs into troubles with the positivity of the spectrum of the Hamiltonian (resp. quantum vacuum) if superpositions of gravitational fields (in the classical basis) do not decay. So Penrose proposed such a decay, which would also solve the measurement problem in QM (resp. QFT). Does anyone know how far away the experimental tests are from being possible?

[@naimulhaq9626]

Hawking's theory of BH radiation, involving QM & GR, provides a deeper window into how the quantum fields can simulate a conscious intelligent 'observer', collapsing the fields to produce real particles. Adam Becker, first contemplated this question, but got lost. I think Hawking's claim of pair production of virtual particles and anti-particles at the event horizon, when the anti-particle falls into the BH while a real particle is ejected into space, answer's the question. If true, then the measurement problem is answered, once and for all.

[@tofu-munchingCoalition.ofChaos]

@@naimulhaq9626 Thank you for your comment. I have seen no empirical or theoretical evidence, that wave function collapse has to do with consciousness. Penrose interpretation has not to do with consciousness. Not consciousness is the source of the wave function collapse in Penrose's interpretation of QM but differences in the gravitational field. Hawking's calculation of back hole radiation however has neither to do with consciousness nor with wave function collapse. In the calculation pairs of a virtual particle and a virtual antiparticle are produced. One with negative energy is swollowed by the black hole. The other is radiated away. Not only virtual particles but equally virtual antiparticles are radiated from the black hole. They overall annihilate to a thermal radiation. Much like a thermal radiation of a black body of extremely low temperature. The calculation is a typical perturbation calculation. There is no collapse whatsoever happening. The particles are purely virtual to calculate what the quantum wave functions are doing. But there is no collapse happening. ps: Penrose however has a theory that the collapse is a non-computable process which supposedly is harvested by the brain to produce consciousness. There is no empirical evidence for this. The reasoning Penrose gave has to do with Gödel's theorem. He argues that there has to be a non-computable process present in consciousness which allows us to prove such a theorem. But he used Gödel's theorem in the wrong way. Gödel's theorem can be computed because it says something not about its own system but a smaller axiomatic system. If one applies Gödel's theorem correctly the indication that non-computability is present in consciousness would be that we have a complete understanding of the natural numbers. But we clearly haven't. We have only listable axiomatic systems. But even in Penrose's quantum consciousness, consciousness is not needed for the wave function collapse but consciousness supposedly harvests effects from this collapse. This theory is not convincing to me There is no theoretical or empirical reason to believe the wave function collapse is essential in consciousness (neither for the other direction).

[@naimulhaq9626]

@@tofu-munchingCoalition.ofChaos I think we have quite different views on 'measurement', 'Godel' and consciousness. I think Copenhagen is quite a complete and deterministic interpretation of QM. Misinterpreting Copenhagen gives rise to multiverse, pilot wave etc. It is perhaps not easy to accept Bohr on collapse of the wave function, I think he is right about 'conscious observer'. However, Adam Becker came closest to an empirical indication of the collapse of QF, but lost out, I don't know why. It maybe because some atheists don't want to compromise their long held stand. I used to be an atheist, but no more. Atheists think we are here because of an accident or sheer luck. But this stand is very unscientific. Consciousness like life or soul is a particular simulation of inanimate objects/particles, but we don't know how, perhaps when we are able to understand the algorithm of quantum computing functions, we may have some insight. Its like Turing's universal machine that can never think. As for Godel, he proved the liar paradox or barber paradox using infinite axioms of normal logic that lead to circular situations. Finite axiom logic of Mathematics is provable and complete, I think. What is indisputable is 'we are here', whether by accident or by divine design. Like I said before, there are many ways to reach the divine design, if you are interested we can explore the possibilities available.

[@tofu-munchingCoalition.ofChaos]

@@naimulhaq9626 The Copenhagen interpretation of QM is not deterministic. The Born rule explicitly is not deterministic but assumed to be random in the Copenhagen interpretation. The Copenhagen interpretation is not complete. It does not describe what exactly counts as a measurement (Born rule) and what does not count as a measurement (Schrödinger equation). Your statements about Gödel's theorem are wrong. The line is not finite or infinite systems. Gödel's first incompleteness theorem states that not all true statements about the natural numbers can be recursively enumerated. So the line is recursive enumeration and non-recursive enumeration. There are many important infinite axiom systems (ZFC - modern mathematics) and infinite proof systems (first order logic - proof system in modern mathematics) which are not finite but don't lead to a contradiction necessarily like you claimed. Furthermore Gödel is purely about the natural numbers. The algebraically closed fields of fixed characteristics are famously a complete and recursively enumerated theory. Here complete (anything is probable or disprovable) means something different than before (any identification of words are precisely connected with the real world through the model). Gödel's second incompleteness theorem gives an explicit statement which can not be recursively enumerated (the consistency of the recursive enumeration formulated as a statement about natural numbers). On these three things you are just objectively wrong. That has nothing to do with experimental evidence or interpretation. These are purely mathematical questions about the axiom system of the Copenhagen interpretation or the content of Gödel's theorems. And you are just wrong about those three things.

[@tofu-munchingCoalition.ofChaos]

@@naimulhaq9626 Personally I don't like many worlds or pilot wave. Both don't solve the measurement problem. They rephrase it. In many words the measurement problem is the split of the multiverse which is incompletely and asymmetric in time (vs. the claim it only needs the Schrödinger equation which is time symmetric). In pilot wave theory the measurement problem is shifted to the collapse of the guiding wave and the consistency condition. So both interpretations are still incomplete. The measurement problem is a very severe problem of combining two processes (Born rule, Schrödinger equation) with different mathematical properties or to make the categorisation of measurement precise. But some completions of the theory might be true. We will see where the scientific method leads us. What is Adam Becker's empirical indication of the collapse of the wave function you referred to twice? Precisely! At the moment there is no empirical data helpful enough to understand the origin of the collapse. But there are theoretical indications and proposed measurements which are not far away from experimental setups today. But they have nothing to do with consciousness or a higher being. About "God": Let's start with the "long hold stance of atheism". Atheism by definition is not a statement about the real world. Only a statement about belief. Perhaps you mean antitheism. Please be more precise and careful with your language and think about your claims. Most of the statements in your last comment are wrong (see my last response) or the language is imprecise. I certainly do not believe in luck or accident. I believe that there is some incompressible physical law that describes reality (that can even be mathematically proved). And more can not be done. But instead of this fundamental physical law to assume a being (God) is unnecessarily complex and against Ockham's razor. This is a very unscientific position. By a mathematical theorem the only strategy to approximate the truth is to follow the simplest (simple to describe precisely in all details) consistent model. So for such a being to be fundamental, we need massive amount of precise evidence to rule out every other theory which is simpler. This is effectively not done. Therefore any such claim is highly unlikely to be consistent or relevant to the real world. And I will follow the scientific method (simplest empirically consistent model) no matter where it leads me. Because it is the only rational thing to do. If you have empirical evidence (precise!) or precise additional reasoning, feel free to add your thoughts. But I'm certainly not interested in an imprecise belief system. The contribution should be much more precise than your previous comment. Especially about such a loaded topic where most people stop to think precisely if they found a comfortable belief.
