That was awesome. I’m currently majoring in data analytics and mathematics, which is great but bloody hard work sometimes. Your videos remind me that the shit is still great fun, and why I chose this path in the first place 👍

I can relate to that

[@shacharh5470]

I took a course on group thoery in the prev semester, it's one of the most interesting I've taken yet. Everyone with an interest in mathematics should get into that

[@brandonfox9618]

Great job easily demonstrating the 5th roots of unity!

[@nerkulec]

This was the best explanation by invention (which is the best way) of complex numbers I have ever seen. Even tho I got to know all this stuff from excellent professors in uni, THIS video still blew me away thanks to the angle from which you approached this. Big congrats!

[@Roosyer]

I’m NOT interested in engineering or mathematics but somehow I managed to watch the whole video. You’re good at this bro! No, you’re great! :)

[@blugaledoh2669]

Why are you interested in?

[@ameerhamza4816]

Eventually you will like mathematics

[@alansmithee419]

I believe for multiplying two complex numbers - you multiply their distances from the origin, then add their angles. We see the adding of angles here, but as we are only dealing with complex numbers of distance 1 from the origin, the result is also a distance of one, hence why all the values here remain on that circle (1*1=1)

[@TheManOfPeace999]

I think your videos might be the best brilliant ad

Nikola tesla even said geometry is like the language of the universe

[@aidanokeeffe7928]

The great thing is that algebra and geometry help each other out, so when one is too hard the other can assist

[@kartikeyedunite]

Symmetry is not only in geometry but also in algerbra but it is in more visual form in geometry. *The whole mathematics is language of universe.*

Was wondering if you could make a statistics or neuroscience video akin to your other college major videos. Granted, stats and neuro are less ubiquitous among undergraduate programs but it is possible that would be of interest.

[@ejb7969]

I can't believe everybody else understands that except for the two of us. And I took group theory as part of a physical science PhD. (40 years ago, but still ...)

[@sagethephoenix7494]

I remember when I was first presented with the Rubiks Cube solutions thing....at the time we hadn't officially solved it yet, but "experimentally" the most moves ever required to solve one had been 19 and it was theorized that either 19 or 20 was the true answer. Ah, the wonders of Google and how far it has brought us. (I worked on a Rubiks Cube for a year and never had a solution over 17 moves, so 18-20 move solutions are near-perfect scrambles and extremely rare)

[@FACH-nr3jz]

[@skilz8098]

The expression of 1+1 which is the simplest of all mathematical expressions and the most basic of all computations is in itself symmetrical!

Excellent, with one little niggle. The singular of criteria is criterion. (While we're there: the singular of phenomena is phenomenon; the singular of bacteria is bacterium; the singular of fungi is fungus.)

[@eeyoreofborg]

[@tracyh5751]

What you've said about soap film is a common misconception, but not wholly accurate. Soap film does not always evolve to global energy minima. It finds a local minima where the energy needed to leave the local minima is larger than the small deviations in energy in the bubble. If bubbles really did find global minima, we'd be able to easily solve the traveling salesman problem by simulating solutions to differential equations. But we can't. We can only find (often times quite good) approximate solutions.

[@michaelbrantley6039]

Question: with the Cuba frame dipped in soap bubbles, where the soap films meet in the middle, you mention its a square not a point. Just curious if you know what the ratio of the square in the middle is in relation to the squares on the sides? I'm assuming it must be some constant ratio....just curious if its 1:3 or 1:6 or something cool like pi or e or something like that

[@Dyslexic-Artist-Theory-on-Time]

It is madness to think symmetry can form out of chaos and time out of statistical entropy! But it is logical that a process of spherical 4πr² symmetry forming and breaking could form entropy with the potential for greater symmetry formation. When the spherical symmetry breaks, it could form the potential for the most beautiful of geometrical shapes, the spiral. We have photon ∆E=hf energy continuously transforming potential energy into the kinetic Eₖ=½mv² energy of matter, in the form of electrons. Could this process form a design pattern or template in the form of spherical geometry for self-organization and complexity to arise? Could a single geometrical process square ψ², t², e², c², v² forming the potential for mathematics? We need to go back to r² and the three dimensional physics of the Inverse Square Law. Even back to the spherical 4πr² geometry of Huygens’ Principle of 1670. The Universe could be based on simple geometry that forms the potential for evermore complexity. Forming not just physical complexity, but also the potential for evermore-abstract mathematics.

[@pladselsker8340]

I heard that despite the fact it was proven that there is no such equation for the fifth degree using roots, there was a way to find the solutions of a fifth degree's polynomial using elipses' equations. It's on wikipedia, at least. I did not see the equation(s) myself, but I don't think I would understand that anyway ^^

[@bhavyaramakrishnan801]

[@Joe-bb4yi]

It’s not the number it’s just the variable he used

[@farrankhawaja9856]

@@Joe-bb4yi Well in this video e was a variable but e (eulers number) is actually a mathematical number around 2.7182818... and its irrational.

[@sabinrawr]

Can anyone recommend a video that shows the proof that there can be no formula to find the zeroes of a fifth-degree polynomial? I recently saw a video that showed how the quadratic formula can be derived algebraically, and it seems intuitive that such a derivation might be possible to any degree. Thanks!

I think the definition of "more symmetry" is subjective to some extent.

I have my own definition of symmetry (Of an image) containing information that can be expressed as duplicates and variations of an original seed of information. Basically you only need to know part of the image to generate the rest
