He is a proponent of balance between scientific research and enjoyment of the outdoors.Lisi is known for "An Exceptionally Simple Theory of Everything," a paper proposing a unified field theory based on the E8 Lie group, combining particle physics with Einstein's theory of gravitation.

    Physics Leaving Academia While Still Contributing to Physics Research

    There is a Theoretical Physicist by the name of Garret Lisi. He gave a ted Talk on one of his unified physics theories that received a lot of attention. The reason why I am bringing him up is because he left academia after he finished his phd and moved to Maui. During his time there he found...

    A The Inner Space of Garrett Lisi's E8 Theory

    Hi :) Does the 'inner space' and 'inner particle physics' which Mr. Lisi refers to in his TED Talk at Maui in 2013 refer to the 8 dimensional maximal tori within E8 and how they function? TED Talk at Maui in 2013 (video): Thanks.

    Is there any news to Garrett Lisi theory?

    I know there is nothing around, that I could find. I checked his tweeter and page and found nothing. So, do any of you know of anything ? https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/interview-theoretical-physicist-garrett-lisi/

    If I were Garrett Lisi, I'd postdoc at Nottingham

    A deepset culture bias says that too much limelight destroys scholars. The tradition goes back to monastery roots or even earlier. We expect scholars to withdraw to a quiet place: labor in the scriptorium and meditate in the monastery garden. I know (my culture prepares me to expect) that...
