Hot off the press, Eva Miranda unveils her latest findings on how physics has undecidable problems, and why that’s terrifying. We cover:
Why chaos can be logically undecidable (not just practically unpredictable). This is a stronger result.
How the Navier-Stokes equations encodes that uncomputable behavior.
Geometry (contact, co-symplectic) is the engine of this computation.
The best part is that all of this is explained extremely simply. You do NOT need any formal background in computer science, physics, logic, or math to follow.
Eva Miranda has appeared on Theories of Everything before, covering something called geometric quantization and the link is here. Today’s podcast is brand new and I’m excited to share it with you.
I want to hear from you in the Substack comment section below. I read each and every response.
