The equations of General Relativity are written in the language of curvilinear coordinates, where mathematical objects like Basis Vectors, Metric Tensors, and Christoffel Symbols dominate the landscape. But where do these concepts come from and how can we connect them to our physical intuition? Join us to find out. Plus -- hotwheels!

You use determinants. You can convert the paramentric vector space to the curvilinear one by using determinants as a linear transformation.
@robertwilsoniii2048
@robertwilsoniii2048 2 ай бұрын
The parametric space can be represented as the column space of a Jacobian matrix (of coordinate derivatives). Each coordinate derivative is the eigenvalue of the Jacobian matrix. Because of this, you can take the determinant to explain a chain of linear transformations to apply to the columns of the matrix, thus specifying how to transform into the curvilinear coordinates. This can be done in any number of dimensions, including greater than 3. 😜🔥 This is called a differential-form, and that's how you do it. Essentially, the differential form becomes a change of basis matrix that converts back and forth between the parametric space and curvilinear space. An arbitrary manifold's surface will be specified by curvilinear coordinates. This allows you to convert back and forth between euclidean flat coordinates and the native local area of the manifold in question, in order to study an analyze the manifold. Now, in terms of physics, I think the error screwing us up on a theory of everything all this time is a universal false assumption that space is continuous. Discretize space, aka finite difference methods, and that is a big step in the right direction in my opinion. But anyways. The real bizarre thing is that the human brain thinks in terms of euclidean spaces when there is no empirical basis for perpendicularity in the real world -- it is just a figment of our imagination.

Just like every time, my day is made when I see a new Dialect upload! I don't really have anything to note about this video because its already a masterpiece! I can't wait for more! My only question is going to be about the nature of General Relativity... I am starting to get the feeling that there is a misconception about General Relativity and Newtonian Gravity... Many people seem to believe that Newton had no idea what Gravity is and where it comes from and that somehow Einstein with General Relativity gives us an intuitive explanation to not just how gravity behaves, but also what it is and where it is coming from... So I am starting to believe that that is sadly not the case. Sadly, Einstein still had no idea what Gravity is and where it is coming from either; After all, a curved spacetime isn't any less magical than a gravitational field... The big change from Newton to Einstein is that now we know that the Universe has a speed limit! The speed of light, therefore Gravity needs to respect that law. Thus we need to update Newtonian Gravity with General Relativity, to see how Gravity behaves in a Universe with an actual speed limit; But neither theory actually makes anyone more intuitive to where Gravity is coming from... So for certain, General Relativity has been falsely "advertised" it seems by science communicators - as this theory that puts Newton into shame, explaining how Gravity isn't a force but the outcome of acceleration and all that jazz... But in reality all we have, is just a mathematical model, where its manifolds can be subjects to higher dimensions and non Euclidean surfaces... Ok - its just mathematics, we can do whatever we want with them because they are in just in our brains... But does this General Relativity give us any real intuition about the nature of Gravity and its real origins? Maybe not; Gravity is a fundamental force... We have no real explanation to how ANY other fundamental force works either... Electromagnetism? You mean this magical EM field that permeates all of space? I hope that Im wrong. I hope that General Relativity really does give an intuitive explanation to Gravity, in a way that we can understand it in an amazing AHA moment, and we are just too uneducated to do that now; Hence we are watching videos like these... But I don't really believe that anymore... I think that its just all mathematics and just like mathematics, everything is permitted; But if we say that "spacetime is Mikowskian therefore this and that", that sentence is still no less magical than a "gravitational field"... Anyway, I hope Im wrong! Ill be watching these videos to find out :)

I'm currently looking into evolving spacetime entirely with tetrads(basis vectors), so I can't use the metric tensor nor the Minkowski metric.

I'm currently looking into Teleparallel gravity, or the tetrad formalism of GR. I look forward to your future videos on this!

Sounds like you're a bit ahead of us! We know Einstein was looking into similar subjects in his latter years (though if we recall correctly he was also suggesting the use of antisymmetric metric tensors as well) so it'll definitely something we'll be looking into down the line.
@PerpetualScience
@PerpetualScience 2 ай бұрын
​@@dialectphilosophy I look forward to it! The reason I'm dropping metric tensors altogether is because I've deemed them unnecessary and problematic. In GR, the determinant of the fully covariant metric tensor pops up a lot. However, the determinant is only a defined operation for mixed-index rank-2 tensors. If you convert the metric tensor to one of those, the determinant is always 1. When we normally take the determinant of the metric tensor, we mistreat the fully covariant tensor as a mixed index tensor. This is a gibberish operation though! Not allowed! This is why I've deemed it somewhat problematic. This issue can be avoided though if you avoid ever taking the determinant of the metric tensor. What the metric tensor is supposed to do is define distances in spacetime. Lets say you have a given vacuum solution for a topological soliton of spacetime. Lets say this topological soliton is a particle, say a hydrogen atom. Vacuum GR is a scale invariant theory though, so we can scale this solution up and down however much we like. This means we can have an asymptotically Minkowski space where copies of these particles of different sizes coexist with each other. In real life though, all particles of the same type are the same size. You could make two rulers with atoms of different sizes and measure the same length and get two different values. The metric tensor had one job, and it has failed. This is why I've fired the metric tensor. A consequence is that nonmetricity is an undefinable concept in this new formalism I'm working on.

If electromagnetism was actually warping of spacetime in this wave like curvilinear space, would we be able to actually detect this as our matter would be warped with the waves? Basically asking if there was a way to detect if EM radiation could even be experimentally shown to be a high frequency gravitational wave. Due to it warping matter we likely would only see it acting on one axis at a time.

I think the description you gave for how something needs to accelerate in the parametric space in order to travel in a straight line in the Cartesian space might be incomplete. I tried simulating motion in polar coordinates and checking whether it would correspond to a straight line in Cartesian coordinates and found that if I simply took the opposite of the sum of the christoffel symbols with the upper index that refers to the same coordinate I’m using the object still accelerates in Cartesian coordinates. If I first multiply each christoffel symbol by the components of the velocity that correspond to its lower indices and then add up their opposites I do get a straight line in Cartesian coordinates.
@dialectphilosophy
@dialectphilosophy 13 күн бұрын
Hmm... in the first example, where the Christoffel components are simply summed, the parametric velocity components are both equal to one. Before the ending however, we mention that for parametric velocities not equal to one, you have to scale the Christoffel components by the respective velocity component. Did you perhaps miss that part of the video, or are you saying that you did something differently than us?

I do the same thing for 2 cars moving the "vertical" purple directions, to get a difference of velocity vector V2. I don't have any "feel" for why these vectors V1,V2 should be exactly equal.

It's a tricky point. The first thing that's necessary to clarify is that the condition is only infinitesimal; so if you are looking at too large a region it will not hold. But in the infinitesimal space, essentially, if one coordinate basis vector expands or contracts along its own direction, then the other coordinate basis vector must rotate and pick up a component in the direction of that expansion/contraction in order to compensate for this. Indeed we'd recommend watching our "conceptualizing the christoffel symbols" video; around the half-way mark we do an infinitesimal walk-through of the Levi-Civita condition and it becomes a lot clearer there. We didn't want to go into the infinitesimal picture here in this video, but without presenting it the Levi-Civita condition is almost impossible to grasp intuitively.

We don't actually disagree with you there; what we've learned is that these "alternate" geometries are actually just descriptive conventions; two geometries can in fact describe the same theory. We tackle the geometric conventionalism of SR in our video "The Loophole"; we have yet to seriously treat on it in GR, but we are headed definitely headed there.

​@@dialectphilosophy Thanks for the reply. Much appreciated, and I am looking forward to what perspectives you present (for write or wrong). "There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so" - Shakespeare > I have been working over a number of fundamental geometries that Einstein could have had in his mind, before it was possibly re-interpreted or misinterpreted by his mathematician colleagues. Each geometry "appears" to go some way toward describing the concept of "combined" space-time in SR, but fail at the extremes or have quirks. In any functional geometry (in my mind visuals) that describes relativity with combined space-time (distance-time m/s) I cannot find any natural x,y,z(3D) x,y,z+t(4D) and even a xt,yt,zt appear to break spacetime into space AND time. I can create the 2 spherical histograms of any point observer for past photons in m/s along the radius lines in my mind which is more complex than it first appears, but in both cases I think anything other than radial coordinates (ones using 2D polar surfaces) seams to break the mathematical description back into space and time separately. > So, we have 2 possibly functional distance-time m/s radial (spherical like) geometries that the mind can grasp visually and conceptually (when it learns how to) and any attempt to describe it in our 2D, 3D paper breaks it. And the math based geometry appears to recreate space-time in mans image and breaks it too lol It really is difficult to translate into human language outside of the mind :) > Good luck with your quest and take care. If I see you down the rabbit hole I'll give you a hello :) Thank you for your videos and perspectives. > P.S. Not an indentured physicist. I lean heavily upon philosophy and cognitive psychology in an attempt to describe the human reality and then step beyond to the external reality (what physics looks for). Kind of lift the veil of the human condition to see outside in a more real raw way.

There's nothing to debate, there are several experimental measurements that when combined together will give you the Lorentz transformation, and _only_ the Lorentz transformation. That's a requirement for any luminiferous aether theory... and for special relativity... and any theory using the Lorentz transformation is going to make the exact same predictions.

@@juliavixen176 I mean, the author of this channel tries very hard to re-introduce the idea of an ether... and most physisist believes it doesnt exist and has been disproven. So I think there is indeed something to debate lol.

Physicist here, although not exactly mainstream. Dialect's matrix theory is just GR but with a definite correct coordinate system which an observer can never determine. This naturally gives the exact same predictions as GR, and isn't really even a different theory. We have coordinate systems for black holes(Gullstrand-Painlevé raindrop coordinates) where the speed of light in the radial direction varies depending on whether it's ingoing or outgoing. This can be interpreted as spacetime flowing into the black hole, reaching light speed at the event horizon. Dialect hasn't done anything particularly innovative or controversial here, although it does go against the spirit of GR in some admittedly unmeaningful respects. Any debate on the matter would be purely on the philosophy of science, as the theory has no meaningful differences.

@@PerpetualScience ok ok. So you are saying that his interpretation doesn't give rise to new predictions or anything like that? It's just a different interpretation of the framework that produces exactly the same results as GR? What's the goal then?
