After reading your papers, class notes, etc, all I have to say is.. Please write a book on Differential Geometry / DEC. Your language and illustrations/diagrams are insanely helpful, especially compared to the alternatives.
You are amazing! You explain all those sometimes quite involved subjects in such an intuitive way while basically reforming very important concepts for both CG-industry and physics research!
18:14 I haven't finished watching but holy crap!!! that reminds of spin in physical particles. If anyone can give me some resources of how to calculate the spin of singularities or something related to this please do. Thanks.
Amazing! I would love a more in depth intuitive investigation of the Dirac-equation. Do you suspect any difficulty generalizing your work on discrete d.g. on surfaces to simplicial complexes of higher dimension? To abstract simplicial sets for that matter, as one might expect a lot of problems do not need explicit coordinates for the vertices. I would love to see a discrete connection on the discreet phase space of motions of a swimming fish as the workhorse in a 3D motion picture one day.
+sicktoaster If you listen to what he's saying at that point ("looked all over the surface and added up all the numbers" - i.e., integrating K over the surface) he is first evaluating the integral and then solving.

Very intuitive lecture, which shows the "classic but intuitive" way of illustrating mathematical ideas.
yes, intuition is gold. that was einstein's gift, even more than just his IQ alone.
Keenan what a great talk ! The first part is something I am workingon as well and the last part electron movements on a bunny it was a great "finale"
Just wow, went from rango to qm in 50 minuts. Great talk.

Wow! Just really fascinating, incredible but also very applied research. Awesome work!
excellent! good primar for General Relativity and spherical wave forms used in quantum mechanics
sphere rango is amazing
very cool talk which I not only enjoy but can still share with my students.
the only (minor) suggestion I can think of: I'd improve the Gauss-Bonnet explanation - it could perhaps be made more intuitive geometrically.
Or just use the generalized curvature measure for n-dimensional Riemannian surfaces and teach Ricci flow from the get go
haha, couldnt stop laughing about the burger

16:30 Does that work if the atmosphere is treated as 3d volume surrounding the globe rather than just as a surface without vertical wind velocity?
Outstanding! Congrats

It seems like he didn't even use the integral. He solves it just as if it were K=2pi(2-2g) without the integral.

I see it now. Thanks.
omg it's lucy liu! it is!! i loved her in Charlie's Angels.
53:10 where can I find more information explaining why this happens?
interesting lecture :) don't rly get much of it but oh well xD
I guessed "bunny" correctly at the end.
