    He mentioned that in one version of the reality the horizon is emitting high energy photons. So is that are what is referred to as the "firewall"?

    Thanks sir for such a simplistic explanation...
    Black holes radiate because they are not in equilibrium with rest of universe and eventually after getiing in equlibrium (thermalised) tey should not radiate and get into equlibrium with universe with no radiation? why does the process go on forever

    • @monke8478

    Could it be that the rate of the expansion of the universe is somehow tied to the increasing entropy (i.e. the cosmic horizon has to expand to accommodate the additional entropy)? Some of the entropy might be stored on the internal horizons (of black holes), so could it be that the rate of black hole production is tied to the expansion of the universe? (I wonder what is the ratio between the areas of the cosmic universe and the total area of all black holes anyway - probably very little). Just some thoughts :)

      I was thinking the same thing when I was listening to these lectures. Although my mind went in the direction of; Is the fact the Universe is expanding then the cause of the increasing entropy (and the second law of TD), and thus the direction of the arrow of time? And would the direction of time reverse when the Universe shrinks?
      It's probably wrong though, I don't really understand enough.

    How can the Holographic principle be correct and reconcile with Minkowski's 4 dimensional space time? What happened to time in this scenario? Einsteins Relativity theories are predicated on the Space-Time continuum, Time
    cannot be separated from space and not lead to a contradiction to Relativity.

      Under-rated comment. Agree 100% In lecture 1 Susskind seemed to be hinting is that very few cosmologists are genuinely asking: What does it mean to say "We have an explanation for the Observable Universe" ?
      I got lost in lecture 1 when I felt I was being told "most" [intelligent, consicous] observers would expect to find their galaxy to be the only one in existence. Surely with 10^79 particles and 13 billion years, more than one galaxy could exist simultaneously? Besides we observe billions of galaxies, so there must be some "seeding process" of dust clouds, and these lead to more entropy, more "states", more "degrees of freedom" [orbitals, atomic nucleii, chemical compounds, sequences of chemical compounds, ..., lives..., minds...] than could ever be "represented" by the "bit count" (aka "information content") of the diffuse gas because that "hydrogen everywhere, no stars" is an "information desert". What we see is after one or two local wash-rinse-dry stellar lifecycles we have 90 odd elements.

    I did keep track on the constants but with this rationale the result seems to differ from the right formula by a factor of 1/8π^2 . Anybody could help me?
    R=2GM/c^2 ,∂R=2G/c^2 ∂M
    ∂E=2πℏc/λ, ∂M=∂E/c^2 =2πℏ/cλ=2πℏ/cR
    ∂R=(2G/c^2)* 2πℏ/cR =4πℏG/(c^3 R), R∂R=4πℏG/c^3
    A=4πR^2,∂A=8πR∂R=(32π^2 ℏG)/c^3 ???
    Thanks in advance.

      Well, the partial derivatives seem to be unclear, e.g. what are you differentiating with respect to? Plus, ∂R is ℏG/Rc^3. since R=GM/c^2 not 2GM/c^2.

    David Grusch brought me here with his creepy statements. I have been thinking about the possibility of the UAVs described using some tech based on understanding some aspects of the black holes, is crazy. Especially to imagine a cube flying in a clear sphere, which to me personally resembles what Mr Susskind mentioned the maximum entropy of the chosen sphere, could these crafts use some understanding of the black holes? By creating small black holes? Am i crazy? Perhaps haha!

    When nothing crossed the horizon for Alice how the information got lost? She still has information about everything.

    • @brendawilliams8062
      @brendawilliams8062 Před 2 lety

      I am trying to figure this too. It will take me a while. My initial impression is that polarization is best looked for inside a holographic image. The dust cloud on the edges. Well not one motion can be tolerated on one particle or it would collapse. Say like 189/945. But I have to try to grasp what the history is saying. Many years of scientific study. These educators have something profound to say.

    Entropy means (I'm referencing/explaining from what I have researched and learnt myself) that over a given/defined/speciific amount of time, order loses definition, until it becomes chaotic/undefined. Basically; all things/life must end/die.
    I don't understand why you would state "hidden information is entropy..." unless I've misinterpreted what you mean/have explained in this lecture? Either way, I find this subject very interesting and "scary".

  • @gruminatorII
    @gruminatorII Před 8 lety

    Hmm, sorry but there is something fundamental about conservation of information that i do not get. Doesnt chaos tell you that initial starting conditions that differ, grow esponentially with time. Therefore looking reasonably far back in time, very tiny changes in the initial conditions, change the present dramatically. Eventually looking far enouph back, these tiny changes in the initial conditions with large effect on the present, become smaller than the uncertainty principle, and therfore the past can not be reconstructed?? where is my mistake ?

    • @Tore_Lund
      @Tore_Lund Před 8 lety

      +Philippe durrer When we talk about conservation of information on an event horizon it is scrambled, you can not reconstruct Bob but everything is there. Every piece of information in him is represented on the horizon as viewed by Alice, also the way he is scrambled, but there is no methodology that can reconstruct him. As the black hole evaporates it looses it's information storing capabilities and the frozen image of Bob will get more and more fuzzy as the photons radiates away from the black hole over the next trillion years, or so. The escaping photons energy is determined only by the size of the black hole so they no longer carry information of anything other than the size of the black hole they originated from. So Alice can watch Bob disintegrate unimaginable slowly .
      My own wild guess:
      I don't know if Bob, if he turns around and look at Alice, would be able to watch the next trillion years flash by, as to him the entire universe would be sped up? Does Bob experience time dilation in free fall as he approaches c on his way to the singularity?

    • @mrstevedavis5731
      @mrstevedavis5731 Před 8 lety

      +Tore Lund Except technically you could reconstruct Bob, that's the point. Not with technologies we have today, but you technically could.

    • @Tore_Lund
      @Tore_Lund Před 8 lety +1

      That is what I'm saying, but maybe not expressed clearly: Scramble, as in scrambled eggs has lost information. Scrambled as in cryptography, has not. In a hologram you have a pattern of interference lines that corresponds to a 3D point, but which intersections between multiple lines correspond to which point is non regressive to us, but it is not scrambled eggs, there is a perfect order and reproducibility, we just can't figure it out.
      The tricky point is as when an old black hole evaporates, information will be lost as it's event horizon surface area decreases and the elementary particles ejected will have less information. Is there an upper limit of complexity for objects in the universe? Does the same loss of information applies to the universe in general. Does the universe forget its history far in the future when the only matter left is black holes evaporating away?

    • @monstrositylabs
      @monstrositylabs Před 8 lety

      +Tore Lund I think we will eventually come to a concrete conclusion that the information in a black hole is not lost. I think Hawking's recent paper is a step in that direction. It also seems to borrow from the Holographic Principle somewhat :)

    • @Tore_Lund
      @Tore_Lund Před 8 lety

      It would be nice if it didn't. The holographic principle is cutting edge right now. Math is being developed to calculate entanglement as information storage with error correction (Edward Witten). The quantum computer might be a natural phenomenon after all. Personally I can't wait for the holographic principle to be become the "holographic theory" with some numbers behind it to tell us how.
