What is entanglement? Itamar Pittowsky claimed that these results brought us right to the precipice of logical contradiction--but not over. Abner Shimoney described it as a piece of "experimental metaphysics." I'm a nobody, but I think entanglement is the most interesting thing ever discovered. 🧵⚛️

The trick is, when among mathematicians, to say you are a physicist so that they forgive you for not knowing very much math. Then, when among physicists, say you are a mathematician so that they forgive you for not knowing very much physics. In especially dire cases I might say I am a philosopher.

The way in which quarks combine into hadrons is ... complicated. Is there a simple toy model of this phenomena? That is, a drastic transition in which degrees of freedom at one scale are replaced wholesale at another scale. E.g., analyzing the particle content of the theories T(s) along an RG flow.

I'm not sure who NGT's guest here is, but unfortunately he makes quite a boneheaded error. The description he gives, before saying "but thats not how it works", is precisely how it works. The very same light, carrying the very same image, is accessible to both observers.

You may have heard that the Banach-Tarski paradox is a consequence of the group of spatial rotations SO(3) having a subgroup that is free on two generators. But what does that look like? Answer: Roughly like this!

Did anyone else read Malcolm Gladwell's Outliers? Remember that guy Christopher Langan he glazed so hard for having an IQ "off the charts"? Deeply funny(?) that Langan would later say this regarding his pet theory, the Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe.

One way I like to present things is this: suppose you want to write a “fairly short” computer program whose goal is to run for as long as possible and then stop. (Equivalently, compute and return some ginormous number.) How would you do it? (Think about it!) 🧵⤵️ •1/8

Do we have good reason to believe the universe is finitely old? In GR, bounds on the hubble curvature of a surface Σ can provide bounds on the maximum proper time of past-direct curves leaving from Σ. They are stopped by a curvature singularity.

This is tangential but its been bugging me a while... the non-interacting limit is not the only situation we are obliged to make sense of 'particles'. Don't we want to say that a carbon nucleus has six protons, etc? These protons are in no sense even approximately free.

Well, I'm 30. My goal was to understand QFT by this time, and I think I have failed, unfortunately. I have learned a lot since last year, and there's a little bit of life still to live, so here's to learning a little bit more.

This is a great question and I wonder how much of probability theory is recoverable in QM? If you restrict to a commuting subalgebra you get regular prob theory & you can do whatever you want. But is there is one overall 'quantum covariance' that restricts to reg covariance on each subalgebra?

I had to leave early but in a talk this afternoon the presenter stated that gravitational waves propagate at lightspeed. Is this statement merely that the linearized Einstein equations, linearized around (M,g) and considered on that background, propagate along g's null cones?
