For mathematicians, Wald is indeed fine; another suggestion would be Callahan, Geometry of Spacetime. Needham's Visual Differential Geometry with Forms will soon change the way the subject is taught (as his Complex Analysis book did) once enough time passes and enough generations are raised in its greatness - it may be the best textbook in mathematics written in the 21st century so far (and I've read a few), but its focus primarily on diff geo and secondarily on GR may sink it as a singular course text for a grad physics class.

@tattah96 Год назад

This lecture series is more similar to how F.Shutz teaches it in his book, reccomending Sean Carroll in my opinion is misleading because Sean Carrol's book relies heavily on Abstract mathematical formalisms which can be initmidating to a first time introduction to this topic. Lecture 2 of this series is right out of Shutz chapter on Lorentz transformations. To new students trying to learn this stuff, use Shutz as a main and sean carroll as a complimentary, trust me it will make your life easier. Don't get me wrong, I love sean carrol's book, it has alot especially in the last chapters, he even gets into string theory and anti de sitter space, but as an introduction it has confusing definitions and not enough examples.

@musselchee9560 9 месяцев назад

Hmm. Formal foundation. I like it. I'm an old school drop out. I have taken the time out to finally learn a thing or two. Over my life time I have spent 420 hours in therapy for, as one therapist asked "... are you still restlessly searching?" Up to the age of 14 I endured violent abuse (manifold) as remembered by my current IRF. The degradatious event(s) occurred over years, again as seen from my current IRF. The metric has gradually, with the benefit of distance through my desperate attempts at wanting to know Why!? enabled me to reach my current inertia and to now breathe a long sigh of relief, if you can dig it. THANK YOU for crossing the tees and dotting the i's for me (with your noisy chalk🙂). Great lecture.

Gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY are linked AND BALANCED opposites, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Accordingly, the Earth AND the Sun are linked AND BALANCED opposites; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. Great !!!!!! Energy has/involves GRAVITY, AND ENERGY has/involves inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE. E=MC2 IS F=MA. The EARTH and the SUN thus constitute and comprise what are the MIDDLE AND THE FULL DISTANCE in/of SPACE (IN BALANCE) in full and BALANCED compliance and conformity with the CLEAR and universal fact that E=mc2 IS F=ma, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Great !!!! It ALL CLEARLY does make perfect sense. (The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky.) INDEED, BALANCE and completeness go hand in hand. Now, very importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is fully invisible AND black. Great. NOW, OVERLAY what is THE EYE in BALANCED RELATION to/WITH what is THE EARTH. Notice the black space of THE EYE. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. THE DOME of a person's EYE is ALSO VISIBLE. Now, carefully consider what is the semi-spherical, translucent, QUANTUM GRAVITATIONAL, AND BLUE SKY. Great. E=mc2 IS F=ma. It is CLEAR. THE EARTH is ALSO BLUE (AS WATER). GREAT. "Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. INSTANTANEITY is thus FUNDAMENTAL to what is the FULL and proper UNDERSTANDING of physics/physical experience, as E=mc2 IS F=ma; as ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. Inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE is proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) GRAVITATIONAL force/energy, as this unifies AND balances gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy; as this balances gravity AND inertia. (This clearly explains BOTH F=ma AND E=mc2, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY !!!) ACCORDINGLY, gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. SO, the BALANCE of being AND EXPERIENCE is essential; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. Our EXPERIENCE is NECESSARILY that of what is the FULL DISTANCE in/of SPACE, AS we are BALANCED between what are THE SUN AND c (A POINT); AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. SO, a given PLANET (INCLUDING WHAT IS THE EARTH) sweeps out equal areas in equal times; AND this is THEN consistent WITH/as F=ma, E=mc2, AND what is perpetual motion; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. E=mc2 IS F=ma. BALANCE and completeness go hand in hand. It ALL CLEARLY does make perfect sense. THINK about what is QUANTUM GRAVITY. "Mass"/ENERGY involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE consistent with/as what is BALANCED electromagnetic/gravitational force/ENERGY, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Indeed, gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Therefore, the rotation of WHAT IS THE MOON matches it's revolution !!! Objects fall at the SAME RATE (neglecting air resistance, of course), AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. Gravitational force/ENERGY is proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Stellar clustering ALSO proves ON BALANCE that ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma. Magnificent !!! E=mc2 IS F=ma. Is a two dimensional surface or SPACE visible or invisible ? The answer is that it is BOTH. So, the electron AND photon are structureless. A PLANET (INCLUDING WHAT IS THE EARTH) is a balanced MIDDLE DISTANCE form in relation to E=mc2 AS F=ma. A PLANET (INCLUDING WHAT IS THE EARTH) is a balanced MIDDLE DISTANCE form in relation to the Sun AND c (A POINT). The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. E=MC2 IS F=MA. ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. Gravity AND ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy are linked AND BALANCED opposites, AS E=mc2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. BALANCE AND completeness go hand in hand. Very importantly, outer "space" involves full inertia; AND it is fully invisible AND black. E=MC2 IS F=MA. It ALL CLEARLY makes perfect sense. The BALANCE of being AND EXPERIENCE is essential. The INTEGRATED EXTENSIVENESS of THOUGHT (AND description) is improved in the truly superior mind. INSTANTANEITY is thus FUNDAMENTAL to what is the FULL and proper UNDERSTANDING of physics/physical experience. (THOUGHTS ARE INVISIBLE.) It is a very great truth that THE SELF represents, FORMS, and experiences a COMPREHENSIVE approximation of experience in general by combining conscious and unconscious experience. MOREOVER, the ability of THOUGHT to DESCRIBE OR RECONFIGURE sensory experience is ULTIMATELY dependent upon the extent to which THOUGHT IS SIMILAR TO sensory experience. Beautiful.

At 53:54 he says "You can read out the components of the lambda matrix from what I've got over there". He was so careful up to this point that I was a bit surprised that he didn't define capital lambda and was confused that he calls it a matrix. As far as I can tell, Lambda_nu is not a matrix but a 4x1 vector which is multiplied by the scalar delta x^nu (resulting in another 4x1 vector). Doing this for nu = 0,1,2,3 and adding together, we still get a single 4x1 vector, that will incorporate the Lorentz transforms if Lambda has the correct coefficients of the delta x's in the Lorentz transform equations. This uses the fact that they are linear in the delta x's. So in the example which he refers to as "what I've got over there", the Lambda_0 vector would be [gamma, -gamma*v, 0, 0] as these are the coefficients of delta x^0. Am I thinking of this correctly?

Assuming you have done an EM 1 course then you can easily self teach yourself EM 2 using Griffiths EM. It's a very well written textbook for undergrad EM. For EM 2 read chapters 3,4,6, 7.3.4-6, 8 and 9.2. That will essentially give you everything you need. Of course, if you have not taken EM 1 also do chapters 1,2, 5, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3.1, 7.3.2, and 7.3.3. They cover a good intro to vector calculus as well as electrostatics and magnetostatics

So a line-of-sight analog amplitude numberness density-intensity analysis, by "numerically condensed" analog sync-duration frequency alignments, ..logarithmicly positioned by pure-math relative motion probability in Singularity point Perspective, an example of AdS/CFT type image projection-drawing, ie of how to construct a Polar-Cartesian AM-FM precision functional coordination-identification picture of "geometrical" dimensionality, Entanglement and loop-resonances at "atomic" positioning, is required. (Precision tools do not guarantee accurate results) Here-now-forever @.dt zero-infinity e-Pi-i sync-duration Eternity-now is holographic Modulation Mechanism Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Geometry.., and then the more accurate academic analysis approach "makes sense" of intuitive observation. (Ie String Theoretical Calculus => potential logarithmic "ideal" possibilities in the phase-locked projection-drawing of e-Pi-i omnidirectional-dimensional, logarithmic condensation, ..primary probability sequences, of Super spin-spiral Super position-pointed Super duration of Eternity-now specifications) Re-evolution and necessary adaptation to ever changing natural circumstances, requires "learning by doing" accumulation of skilled Intuition, and reduces hands-on experience to a wordless teaching-learning acceptance of the superimposed superficiality of observational math-measurement, and the pervasive complex messiness creates an artificial demarcation with Pure Dynamic Mathematics, as if we were in alternate universes, eachin our own skin. For example, the education of Engineering Students requires direct experience of phenomena to the extent that Conservation Laws loose their apparent magic of consistency and become quantisation tools. When a Power Station generates Electricity and distributes it everywhere, that is not using different properties of Actuality Conception than Mathematics teaching-learning, it's a similar distinction between Space-time and QM-TIMESPACE via Quantum-fields of Math-Phys-Chem and Geometry, ..and "it's always NOW", in the Universal Holographic Principle of Singularity. We are all together in one coherence-cohesion objective mind-body in cause-effect self-defining time duration timing superposition.., for better or worse.

Thank you for uploading. I have just finished watching this lecture. It was fascinating but I fear if this was the boring easy stuff I am going to start struggling in 3-4 lectures time. I have a question. Time was spend defining manifolds, event, metrics, how measurements or length and time are made, etc but no definition of length or time were given. Could these two concepts be defined, please?

@TheMajorpickle01 4 года назад

Can I ask, have you had any undergraduate education? Moving straight into this kind of mathematics will be very hard as it's usually a 3rd year or master qualification level being taught in GE

@@TheMajorpickle01 I've a PhD in computer Science from University of Kent but that was a long time ago and my Maths has gone very rusty since then!

@TheMajorpickle01 4 года назад

@@e_m_met Oh then you should be very quick up the pickup! I'm a lowely theophys graduate haha. If you are willing to spend a little (or do some googling) there are two fantastic books to do some prereading for this module, "Engineering Mathematics" by KA Stroud, and "Essential Mathematical Methods" by Riley and Hobson. If you are mainly doing this for a dabble i'd suggest the latter! Doing Comp Sci i'd imagine you didn't interact with a ton of tensor, although i'd think you are probably somewhat familiar with vector mechancis. The only essential reading is essentially an understanding of tensor mathematics (which is basically vector notation)

@PDHo-hl3ld 4 года назад

Agree, but this is an introduction to give a general idea of the course, so rigorous mathematical details might come later, hopefully

So how do the two clocks actually synchronise? If the light is reflected by clock 2 -- how does clock 2 sync with clock 1? Or is the pulse not actually reflected, but emitted when the incoming pulse is detected?

@hywelgriffiths5747 2 года назад

clock 2 sets its 0 time to when it sees the light, and clock 1 sets its 0 time to halfway between when it sends the flash and when it receives it back

It is not easier to just say that a given structure is a manifold if there is an isomorphism between the structure and (real) space of some dimension?

The Carroll disaster is tied for worst book to use if you're starting to learn G. R. for very first time... He's an authority on the topic - BUT this time he's showing his stuff by writing to an audience of his peers just to prove he;'s still in the game: helps keep you employed ...

Part of the difficulty of the subject to the naive person is lack of conceptual presentation and friendly mathematical notation and the ability to bridge the two. There is no need to overwhelm the beginner students with side issues on the first lecture. Piecemeal approach might tender the subject more appealing, than just trying to see the forest when it is hard enough to see the tree. One the worst teaching mistakes is assuming that the audience of students is at the same level or even worse assuming that the audience understands every concept or notation and the underlying thought behind it. I love those teachers who treat their students like infants without any knowledge about the subject unless they make sure that their students without exception are well familiar with it.
