Graduate Information theory via knot theory
Knotty Knits are Tangles on Tori Shashank G. Markande1 and Elisabetta A. Matsumoto2 https://archive.bridgesmathart.org/2020/bridges2020-103.pdf This is a less abstract & more hands-on approach that does note the mechanical responses of various knit patterns.- Twodogs

Graduate Information theory via knot theory
It is interesting to see what the math might look like, thanks. So, would increasing the complexity of G be equivalent to adding symbols to your alphabet, increasing bits/symbol? I am thinking that your "topological channels" is kindred to communication channel rather than river channel. I am...- Twodogs

Graduate Information theory via knot theory
"that the major tenets of information theory can be established through knot theory" Well, I remember who made this statement and it was Chris Hillman who was post doc at University of Washington. I find on checking that he was a contributor to Physics Forums until sometime just before 2022. My...- Twodogs

Appreciate your for checking it out. I will look at these.- Twodogs

Graduate Information theory via knot theory
That would be helpful, thanks. This was 40 years ago and I have lost touch. I do remember the comment though.- Twodogs

Graduate Information theory via knot theory
A mathematician friend told me that the major tenets of information theory can be established through knot theory. Is that the case? Thanks.- Twodogs

Undergrad Singing Crystal Wineglass -- Does the wine mass determine the pitch?
Reading about resonance as an emergent phenomenon and wandered into chemistry "Resonance is a consequence of the valence bond (VB) theory." I regret lack of clarity. I know you can not reference any AI sources, but not clear about posting article from say Quanta Magazine.- Twodogs

Undergrad Singing Crystal Wineglass -- Does the wine mass determine the pitch?
Reading about resonance seen as an emergent and ubiquitous phenomenon. Interesting. Chemistry for example, "Resonance is a consequence of the valence bond (VB) theory." What are the protocols for posting URLs to Physics Forums?- Twodogs

Thanks all for input. Time to empty the wine glass.- Twodogs

Undergrad Singing Crystal Wineglass -- Does the wine mass determine the pitch?
Thanks for going through that step wise. The mass of the longer guitar string a good example. In the wine I am thinking that the sound pressure waves, must be concentric, go to the center and bounce back. But the same mass in a glass with lightly larger diameter would not produce the same tone...- Twodogs

Undergrad Singing Crystal Wineglass -- Does the wine mass determine the pitch?
Well, I would surely like to experiment with an acoustic probe measuring period of pressure transients in wine. Apparently the wine in glass system I describe is analogous to the period of a weight cycling on a spring. The more weight the longer the period. I would like to know exactly how the...- Twodogs

Undergrad Singing Crystal Wineglass -- Does the wine mass determine the pitch?
"When you stroke the top edge of a crystal wine glass half full of wine, a musical tone is produced. Is the wine mass part of the determinate of pitch? Is the water vibrating at that pitch?" I asked asked ChatGPT this question. It did not call me an idiot for posting a questionably formed...- Twodogs

Graduate Entropy increase in proton/proton collision?
Thank you. Interesting distinction that. Need to consider. Shouldering my way in a classical realm I tend to acquire rules of thumb, one being that whenever you turn mechanical energy not all of it makes the corner, some leaks away in heat, sound or even electromagnetic energy. Here 'turn' being...- Twodogs
