For those who do not want to follow the beaten track, and want to follow the beat of a different drum, heres another very exciting path

Jose and Eugene Saletan, Classical Dynamics



I will say more about this later when I write about the Landau-Lifshitz pseudotensor and the Rosenfeld-Belifante pseudotensor

Landau and Lifshitz - Volume 1 Mechanics

V. I. Arnold has said that there are mistakes in Landau's mechanics. I am afraid I have to disagree. This is very difficult to understand. This book is far beyond perfect. It is the most immaculate conception.

A beautiful formula discovered by Feynman

Feynman discovered this formula using Hamiltonian mechanics

The wobbling rate of a top is twice the angular speed of rotation


$$ \dot{\phi} \simeq 2\omega $$

At the Pocono conference Niels Bohr was in attendance. Feynman made the mistake of trying to explain the path integral without showing any formulas. He thought that If he showed formulas they would not believe it.

Show a single formula Bohr said. I will understand. 

Today I was walking near the dust. I sat on the pavement and was thinking of a new formula, something new and interesting. I found this interesting expression

$- \left( \frac{2e^2}{3 \pi \hbar c^3} \right) $


I might say more about this later. For now,

$ \frac{e^2}{\hbar c} $

Even though he seemed like an experimental physicist, for some reason he always carries around a copy of Mukhanov's physical Foundations of cosmology

I looked at my Rolex. the time stopped at 9:02

Today I solved the 𝜏-θ puzzle
It is not actually possible for such a thing to exist. It must have been taken a long time ago.

One day at tifr-h, a boy came inside [somehow]

why don't you teach me physics
the boy asked

OK. I said.


$\epsilon_{\mu \nu} = \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ -1 & 0 \end{pmatrix}$


$\epsilon_{\mu \nu} \epsilon^{\nu \rho} = g^{\rho}_{ \ \mu}  $

Solving simple problems 4

A sequence $u_n$ is determined by the relations

$u_1 = \alpha + \beta$

$u_n = \alpha + \beta - \frac{\alpha \beta}{u_{n - 1}}$


Show that

$u_n = \frac{\alpha^{n+ 1} - \beta^{n + 1}}{\alpha^n - \beta^n}$

$ = \alpha^n + \beta^n $


solution

u_n = u_{n - 1} + 

$u_1 = \alpha + \beta$

$\alpha + \beta + \left( \alpha + \beta - \frac{\alpha \beta}{\alpha + \beta} \right) + \ ...$


$\alpha + \beta + ( \frac{    (\alpha + \beta)^2 - \alpha \beta    }{\alpha + \beta + \ ...}$

New

M-theory and a couple of other mathematical physicists were standing on a hill in Edinburgh, talking about modular lie algebras. Some people who were around put a question to M-theory - What do you think about loop quantum gravity? He said "isn't that just lattice gauge theory?"

they say that the 'calculus and sheaf theory' comment was also made here, but no one remembers clearly.

It is impossible to figure out this movie

but here's a hint:

555 timer

after a week of walking around tifr-h, I started reading a research monograph by Anastasios Mallios. these are new ideas that are worth looking at for a few nights.

this must never be forgotten.

..and he seemed to believe that, even though he was not.
i do know, but seem to think i cannot remember.

Something so exciting

Abel wrote a monumental work on elliptic functions which, however, was not discovered until after his death. When asked how he developed his mathematical abilities so rapidly, he replied "by studying the masters, not their pupils."


On this note, I did tell the strange people from youth that 90% of the arxiv is nonsense. Let me clarify, I read all kinds of papers. If you want to remember the comment that I only check Bousso and Douglas Stanford and so on, remember Abel's remark.

When I was young, one of the principles close to my heart: everyone except Einstein is a moron. This is probably exactly how Einstein thinks of it, but he might have changed his mind when he found out about Feynman.

I have decided not to buy anymore classic books

This is the last one




I also have a sufficient number of poetry books

What is an automorphic function?

it is a symbolic statement which does not have an answer


$\int {\log z} \  {}^{\square} = M$


$\int {\log z} \  {}^{\square} + f(M)^{\sim } + \ ... $


M is an automorphic function

The book is mine, but the movie is yours.

Math Tripos

If x, y, z are unequal, and if

$2d - 3y = \frac{(z - x)^2}{y} $




solution


The answer follows because

$\left( \frac{z}{y} \right)^2 = 1 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{3}{2} + 1 + \ ... $

$x + y + z = \alpha$


$x = \frac{\alpha}{3}$


$y = 3x$


$z = 3\alpha + 5 + 2$

Solving simple problems 3 - Dieudonne 'Infinitesimal Calculus'

This is not really a simple problem, but still fun.


In the neighborhood of $+\infty$, the function $\frac{\sin x}{\sqrt{x}} + \frac{\sin^2 x}{x}$ has for generalized principal part the function $\frac{\sin x}{\sqrt x}$; but the integral $\int^{+\infty}_1 \frac{\sin t}{\sqrt t} \ dt$ is convergent whereas the integral $\int_{1}^{+\infty} \left( \frac{\sin t}{\sqrt t} + \frac{\sin^2 t}{t} \right) \ dt$ is not convergent.


Solution 

$\int_{1}^{+\infty} \left( \frac{\sin t}{\sqrt t} + \frac{\sin^2 t}{t} \right) \ dt < 0$

$\epsilon > \frac{1}{2} + 1$

$\delta = 1 + \frac{1}{2}$


$ \frac{\sin x}{\sqrt x} > \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{2} + 1$

 



volume of cylinder = $\frac{h^3}{1 + a}$


$$ \left( \frac{1}{a} \right)^n \int dr \ d\theta \ dh \ R(r, \theta, h) = n + \frac{1}{2} $$


the 'dimension' of a cylinder is $n = \frac{1}{2}$

Notes for 'Advanced General Relativity' (Warwick postgraduate course)

Pseudo-Riemannian space


element of a vector space V can be expanded in terms of a basis

For a vector bundle the basis of sections does not exist [probably no one will understand]

p-form valued sections

gjk,l = Γjkl + Γkjl


g_ij are not observable like the potentials

g is a transverse wave

Fun - what is 'teleparalellism'?

exercise. GR two-body problem


solution to ‘teleparallelism’ exercise

acceptable solution
- parallel vectors at different points of space


full marks
- h is symmetric and rank n - 1

probably should not try to figure out in full detail


another acceptable solution
g^ij R_ij = R


what is the relationship between R and Λ


R is the Ricci scalar

It is not very difficult to understand the Einstein field equation, but writing them in a form in which they can be manipulated is very hard

How did Hilbert discover the field equations?

think before looking at the answer

g is the Lorentzian metric and $\delta g$ is any symmetric (0, 2)-tensor that vanishes outside a compact set. This allows us to define the variation of the action as 

\delta S(g) = \frac{d}{ds} S(g + s\delta g ) |_{s = 0}

so we have

\delta S = \int_M (\delta R) vol + R \delta vol

we get

\delta (det \ g ) = - ( det \ g ) g_{\alpha \beta} \delta g ^{\alpha \beta}


[ when Hilbert told Einstein about this, he explained to Hilbert what the christoffel symbols are ]

The power of the Jacobian under transformation is called the weight of the tensor (density)

In order to perform the variation of the action, we need a lagrangian which is a scalar

g has weight -1
d4 x has weight 1

gμ ν has weight -2

so, if

ℒ = - 1/16πG gμ ν Rμ ν

(this is 16 instead of 8 because we did not include the speed of light)

-1/16πG ∫ d4x √g ( Rμ ν  - 1/2 R gμ ν ) 𝛿gμ ν

variation of  ∫ ( L - 1/2κ R ) √g d4 x = 0
gives the field equations

Hilbert misunderstood the meaning of integration by parts

what are the Bianchi identities?

you just say that the curl of R^i_{jklm} = 0

 Ich weiss es, widerspruchsfrei ist die Sache schon, aber sie enthalt meines ...

why does heat flow from hot to cold?

the explanation of the fact that heat flows from hot to cold involves the concept of fluctuations. fluctuations distinguish which particles to absorb energy from and which particles to reflect elastically
