And that's where the grouping stops. It can't go any further than The Monster boss, because calculation past that is impossible. Wow man, just epic.

I think you're mixing math and physics - all constants in math are very well defined, and we know how they arise. In physics, constants and principles are usually made up to correct the formulas into observations and nobody knows why exactly those numbers, nor do they apply everywhere or just here (anthropic principle)

@@HorukAI This whole video id about a mathematical constant and nobody knows why it's exactly that. I mean, we can calculate it, but that doesn't explain much.

@@tacticalassaultanteater9678 sorry this was not a constant, but a cardinality of a particular finite simple group. My point is that constants in mathematic indeed do arise from deduction process (logic) while in physics it's often an equation scalar based on observation, or mathematical necessity added so that it fits to hypothesis (think inflation)

@@HorukAI A cardinality is a number and a number not dependent on any variable is a constant.

@@HorukAI Numbers like the gravitational constants aren't even proper constants, they are derived from the quantities we pick. When I say constant I mean precisely values like π, Euler's number or the cardinality of the monster group. Artifacts of logic, independent of our circumstances, universal, yet hard to explain why their values are exactly what they are.

I might be wrong but I think photons are in 5D space, as far as special/general relativity is concerned anyway. The basic idea which when you go into detail is totally different (going off memory, may be wrong) is photons reveal what is in 3d space, travel through time (4d) and they are in the 5d. Surely, much much more could be unknown about em and time is controversial to begin with but im sure thats the consensus in modern physics so far; although anyone could come along and massively correct me plus, time is apparently, according to some, just a result of the universe expanding or whatever. So, photons apparently dont actually move, they stay static in one part of space time, but space time moves really fast and its as if the light travels as fast as is possible in space, but its just travelling at the fastest (known) possible speed in the universe; the rate at which it 'expands'. I think some people claim that in one dimension, there is a pulling force, like a gravity, to the universe and then in another dimension theres like an opposite pull - not so much a push but pulling in the other, or another, direction - and basically, the waves that photons make are a result of one dimension pulling, causing a peak in the wave (the light wave travelling 'up'), while the other dimension pulls the other way, causing a trough in the wave (the light wave travelling 'down'). Idk if one dimension, would be space, or time, or electromagnetism. Now, it's a bit like when you grab two edges of a piece of paper and pull them apart. The paper rips into two pieces in around 0.27 of a second. On the macro level (watching in real time) it's as if it's a clean break, it was pulled near enough equally in both directions and torn apart. Yet, if you were to slow it down to an extreme level, like 20000 times slower or something and magnify by about the same, you would see the left hand pulls the paper diagonally to the left, then the right hand pulls it to the right, very quickly. These pulls to the left and to the right happen very frequently, very quickly and there are very much of them, as the tear travels down the paper; from whence the tear started and whence the tear must end (the other end of the paper). and when you observe time at a very slow instance, almost freezing time in effect, you can see the up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down of the photon. Really, if you consider the photon is staying still, and this is all happening very fast, perhaps at the speed of which the universe is 'expanding', then it's like you can see the different pulling dimensions acting as the 'left hand' and the 'right hand'. But, it's not 2d like the paper, it's 3d or 4d or some higher amount of dimensions. The light wave, travelling in one direction, is kinda like the tear in the paper. You can see how the universe is tearing, being pulled left to right in the patterns of the light wave. Yet, just like how the paper was near enough a clean break, torn apart in 0.27s, this pulling and tearing of the universe is near enough a clean break (we'll assume; scientists have found that the universe is likely expanding at a faster rate in one direction than another direction(saw Zach Star mention an article about it in a hypersphere universe video) but that's a story for another day haha) so whether or not we see the pattern, the pulling left to right on the microscopic, micro-timed level, the result is still near enough the same. We see the light, pretty much in an instant, before we can even notice we see it. If there is a plentiful amount of photons, which they're most usually is, we see a constant stream of photons and we visualize the object that emits the photons.

@Grant Jacobson to answer your question: even if light is in a lower dimension, a 1d point could travel through 3d space and hit near enough exactly the vertex(corner) of a cube. This 1D point would then be reflected along another path in 3D space(4D spacetime if you wanna get technical). In a similar way, whether photons are 3D, 5D or More Dimensional, if a photon was to travel directly into a vertex, a corner of the monster, it would be deflected and reflected along a different path in it's own dimensions; or perhaps the photon would be reflected into different dimensions to the ones that it was originally in, then it's path would continue there. I can only assume The Monster, being some form of physical object, in space, would have oodles and oodles, trillions of corners. I can also only assume, that these corners must reach the edge of many other dimensions because... they're corners. With it being such a highly dimensional being, these corners must crossover into many and lots of different dimensions, so it goes to suggest that they must probably crossover every, or most, dimensions, including the ones that light travels in. Now, if enough light hits enough corners, travelling from (starting from) enough different dimensions (assuming it can even be reflected/deflected into hitting the corners of the monster; covering all grounds)(and assuming light could even act the same within it's presumed finite dimensional range in any set of dimensions, that's a pondering for another day;[*]), then, some of the monster could be illuminated and visualized. Maybe the light could travel along edges, not just corners, or perhaps even it would be hard for us to distinguish between corners and edges at that high level of dimensions; this way we could possibly see more of it. Through seeing the corners we could get some kind of glimpse of what the shape of it could be, from some presumably very limited angle; yet, we could estimate a full picture of the monster by calculating symmetry patterns in what we do see. * -[perhaps the higher the dimension the light travels in, the higher range of dimensions it occupies. Wherein, the range of dimensions it occupies as it occupies higher dimensions could expand at a proportional/formulaic rate as the range of dimensions it occupies gets higher] TL;DR: To the one person who may have actually been interested in this: Thank you. You're welcome!

@@MrAlRats Knapp "Elliptic curves", it's covered in the last chapter or near the end of the book.

I just graduated with a Master's degree in Mathematics, my thesis was on modular forms stuff. Who was your advisor (if you don't mind sharing)? I've attended the Automorphic Forms Workshop a couple of times, I've probably at least heard their name. For everyone else, I think Kilford's book on Modular forms was somewhat readable with a decent background in group theory (maybe some number theory) and knowing kind of what Fourier expansions are. For anyone outside of math, you need to learn what proofs are first, and then a few more things. Diamond and Shurman's book on Modular Forms is a beast. I kind of managed to get through the first chapter and maybe a few pieces of the second chapter, although I tried to do that before Kilford, so I think it would be easier now. Also, I think some experience with complex analysis might be necessary that I wasn't fully solid on. Modular forms was not an easy topic for me to just jump into. Progressing from no math beyond Calculus to modular forms, here are some books I might recommend: Learn proofs: A Transition to Advanced Mathematics, Doud and Nielsen (free and well written, highly recommend) Learn group theory: A First Course in Abstract Algebra, Fraleigh Representations and Characters of Groups, James and Liebeck (all solutions at the back of the book, it's amazing; also learn a bit about generalizations of this 196,883 thing) Galois Theory, Cox (not strictly necessary to get to modular forms, but you do get to see what's going on with the roots of polynomials business) Abstract Algebra, Dummit and Foote (if you really want to go hard; also, just the first fourteen chapters - after that it goes into Algebraic Geometry and other topics; also you might want to at least take a glance since Kilford touches on exact sequences and Dummit and Foote has a section on them) Learn complex analysis: Understanding Analysis, Stephen Abbott (probably best to start with Real Analysis) Fundamentals of Complex Analysis with Applications to Engineering and Science, Saff and Snider Complex Analysis: An Introduction to The Theory of Analytic Functions of One Complex Variable, Ahlfors (this is probably the standard text, although I used the one by Stein and Shakarchi, which was alright) Some basic ideas of Number Theory might not be bad, maybe something like Fundamentals of Number Theory by LeVeque, and maybe Introduction to Analytic Number Theory by Apostol, seeing as modular forms in Kilford are mostly treated in the sense of Analytic Number Theory. Then Kilford. Going through all of those books is probably not fully necessary, but since when is stopping to smell the roses a bad thing in math?

we are coded in source 8, not so buggy

Things like this studied by maths are actually more fundamental than the universe itself. If another universe were to exist with completely different physics yet housing some form of entities of sufficient intelligence, they would eventually come to these same results, since they are consequences of logical necessity rather than properties of the universe we inhabit.

@@MatthijsvanDuin what you just said blows my mind, could you, please, explain more about it? Cant logic work diferent in other universes? Truly interesting coment!

​@ I guess it's plausible that we could live in a universe in which there were no dark energy and still have logic work the same.

@ In a sense, logic works independent from the universe. To reach a logical conclusion, you start with some set of assumptions, and then combine those axioms to reach some sort of conclusion. Because we exist in the universe, our starting assumptions are typically tied to the universe, but the conclusions we reach are only tied to those assumptions. We could start with an assumption that is untrue like "glass breaks when you hit it with a soft object" and reach the conclusion "if I hit a window with a feather, it will break". This conclusion is not true in our universe, but the logic is correct given the starting assumption. Since logical conclusions seem to be independent from the universe we inhabit, it seems likely that if there were another universe with different physical laws, logic would still work independently from those laws. An intelligent species in that universe would likely still recognize Pythagoras' theorem as true, even if they didn't have any use for planar geometry, since they could still recognize that if they started with certain assumptions, Pythagoras' theorem would be a necessary result. Similarly, if these alternate universe mathematicians started studying symmetry, they would also eventually discover the Monster, since the Monster is tied only to the idea of symmetry, and not to any physical reality of symmetry.

Lantanoids and Actinoids are only written down separately to make the periodic table look more clean. In reality, they fit there perfectly. They just make the table wider.

The parts of periodic table that do not fit this nice pattern are not a part of chemistry even in uni. There is a table of isotopes that has neutron and positron counts on its axes, and then there are nuclear isomers that differ from usual atoms by the way neutrons and protons swirl inside of a nuclei (metastable isomers) or weird shape (fission isomers), even though the number of nucleons is the same. They are randomly all over the table, with no apparent pattern.

Some chemists may be concerned with the symmetry of chemistry... while we are concerned with the chemistry of symmetry

Are you interested in getting info for better crypto gains?

Dont worry, no one really dies like most people think we do. The essence from him will be born again! No one can get away from this existence. At least not so fast and easily as many of us wish we could be.

C: RUBBISH! Says the voice from beyond. oh! I guess that proves your point !

Maybe we'll just regroup again

Grant is a legendary explainer, managing to present very brain-hurting topics engaging The world needs more people like Grant teaching

@@ultradude5410 it felt like 2 hours

So, it felt like one pi-th as long...? Interesting apparent compression rate. :)

@@QmcometdudeShardMaster was gonna comment the same

Yeah I watched the 20 minuters and I was too focused in trying to understand something to notice the time pass

...jokes? What jokes?

@@aliince9372 Jokes aside refers to the sarcastic statements that this comment made before saying, "jokes aside." It is a relatively commonly used phrase in english.

The way Grant makes his videos: 1. Find a topic 2. Make an incredible video about it
