How did you find PF?
Google search of a quote about abstract algebra and topology
Graduate of MIT (1972) and Ph.D. from Cornell, 1979. Quantum physics courses always left me with the feeling that some sort of sleight-of-hand was involved in converting wave functions to probabilities of observation, always wanted to further investigate these issues, but spent my life until now doing plasma physics, and electrical engineering.

Now (mostly) retired, kids (mostly) grown up, and wanting (and having time) to get back into quantum physics.

Hello everyone, I was advised to join this community while seeking guidance on how to navigate the academic world as an independent researcher. My name is Omar, and I'm based in Groningen The Netherlands. My formal physics education ended after high school, but I have dedicated the last several years to developing a theoretical framework from first principles. My work focuses on a topological field theory (which I call Swirl-String Theory) that models particles as knotted vortex...
