Graham P
I am interested in theoretical stuff: Cosmology, Metaphysics, theories about the limitations of mathematics, Theoretical biology and similar stuff like what life on other planets might be like and how to build time machines or FTL star drives. My IQ is quite high but I can be very scatty at times, and lazy in my thinking. I watch lots of TV especially SciFi. I like Jake 2.0 and Stargate. I don't follow any set religion but believe in magic or something beyond our knowledge, but am overly sceptical of fortune tellers etc. My brother is a spacecraft engineer, and my father trained with ASIO and was facinated with spy novels. His favourite TV show was Callan.
How are simplexes used in quantum or quantum gravity theories?
I know they are used in Loop Gravity.
2 AnswersPhysics9 years agoslope at (0,1) of y^4 = e^x + x^2*y?
How do you integrate for x if you have a function in x and y?
E.g. Find the slope of at (0,1) of y^4 = e^x + x^2*y
This is a question from a previous exam, I have to do shortly.
I need to be able to do questions like this.
1 AnswerMathematics1 decade agoIs matter-energy conservation a part of quantum mechanics?
My understanding is it isn't. I.e. I thought new energy space-time or matter-energy can pop into existence any time in QM.

2 AnswersPhilosophy1 decade agoAny good books on Loop Gravity.?
I am looking for a book or website explaining multi-dimensional physics such as Loop Gravity, M-Theory or stuff similar to super string theory.
1 AnswerPhysics1 decade agoWhat types of multi-dimensional shapes are there?
I am interested in basics of multi-dimensional geometry.
Simplexes are made by adding an extra dot or vertex for each dimension. I like to think of these as triangular shapes.
Other shapes that have multi-D versions are Square or cubic shapes such as hyper-cubes that are made by duplicating or sliding the shape into the next dimension; and circular.spherical shapes, where every point is equidistant from a center origin, or made by spinning into the next dimension.
What other types of multi-Dimensional shape series exist?
