Hi all, I once read an article about a sort of matrix theory: that we are only a computer simulation which a supercumputer runs in the future to let the people experience there what the past was like. Does that ring a bell to anyone? I really need this article again but am not sure what...

For one of my classes, I am choosing to write a paper on either String Theory or the search for the theory of everything. The paper will not be very technical, rather it will deal with the effects of these theories, and how they will effect our planet, and the way we view life. These ideas...

I read John Gribbon's In Search of Schrodinger's Cat recently and have spent many moments puzzling over the implications of QM. Particularly this passage: Imagine an arrangement that records which hole an electron goes through but let's it pass on its way to the detector screen. Now the...

TUZFC the general idea is to find a way to axiomatize a universal set into existence in a way that doesn't contradict other axioms. there are potential ways this might be done, including 1. changing the subsets axiom 2. using ternary logic and changing all axioms 1 would go something...

Ok, is my blame for not wanting to buy a Group theory book, but anyway: I'm searching the correct definition for the Lie groups SO(n) and SU(n), and these are the definitions that I've found until now: Well, what's the correct definition?? Or, if they are wrong, what's the exact definition of...
