    Hi Eugene, I have read your animal rights website! You are an amazing person - superior, incredibly kind, and intelligent, The true intelligence lies in helping us grasp the meaning of a concept at its deepest level, rather than merely teaching equations. This way, we can utilize that logical thinking to derive equations.
    I wish you all the best of luck! Your enlightening videos always blow my mind, and without your education, my understanding of general and special relativity wouldn't have reached this far although I still have a lot to learn. Thank you for everything!

    Another neat trick is to simply show these harmonic series as Fourier sums with changing "wavelength" that depends on an arbitrary range (essentially the number of positive or negative terms you wish to sum in a certain order), and see where this function tends to at infinity. This way you are free to adjust the periods and hence choose any value as the convergent value.

    Suppose you had a sequence with all even numbered terms adding to +inf (1, 1/2, 1/3, …) and all odd numbered terms adding to -1 (-1/2, -1/4, -1/8, …).
    The whole sequence would look like 1, -1/2, 1/2, -1/4, 1/3, -1/8, …
    Would this sequence still he conditionally convergent? I ask this because it’s stated in the video that for a conditionally comvergent sequence, both the positive and negative “components” sum to +inf and -inf, respectively.
    I appreciate any clarification. Thanks in advance.

    • @abmagnitude7596

      Having infinitely many numbers is necessary but not sufficient. In an alternating series with absolute convergence you also have infinitely many positive and negative terms but you cannot make them sum up to an arbitrary real number (which is basically the definition of unconditional convergence and in finitely dimensional vector spaces it is equivalent to absolute convergence).

    I think what this proves more than anything is that "infinity doesn't exist". It's only a construct in our minds. Basically, the amounts that would balance things out are basically put off forever and never counted. It's like flipping a coin an infinite number of times, but you just put off counting all of the times it's "tails", or only count as many of them as you need. I actually started writing this before it was mentioned that some think that infinity is only a mathematical construct, but I do agree with those who believe that is the case. If infinity exists, it exists simply as "nothingness", and thus still doesn't exist, but no physical thing or series of objects can itself be infinite. And maybe dimensions like time and space might (or might not) go on to an infinite extent, but no matter how far you go, you'll never reach the end, they may be unfolding with no end in sight, but infinity has no end, and thus can never be counted "after reaching the end".

During the video I felt a lot of intelligence, intuition and love as people feel in their NDEs 😅 It was like If there is a God, he/she himself is teaching me mathematics...
    One thing that convinces me that NDEs are fake and only the illusion of brain is that no one ever have seen how God created the universe or how the big bang happened in any of their NDEs nor did anyone see the dinasaur era not even the vision of how the universe will end... But my mentor these is still something mysterious that we humans can not yet understand because I myself had some precognitive dreams but they were not exactly how I saw them but they were about 95% true... I wonder how brain saw peep into the future during sleep. Maybe its not due to some God but due to a phenomenon like Delayed Choice Quantum Eraser where signals can travel back in time.. Anyway my mentor! Thank you so much for this brilliant video... All my anxiety went away by watching your video... I am anxiously waiting for your video on why all spinning astronomical objects release jets of radiation and materials only form their poles and not from their equator or any arbitrary surface position..
    When is your next video coming?

Recently, my uncle had an NDE when he suffered a brain hamirage (sorry for wrong spellings) in the hospital, and what I know is that during that brain hammarage the brain is not able to function properly but he remembered it as clear as a glass. Moreover, after recovery he honestly told us about that experience that It was a hellish one... But he didn't told the doctors about it... What I am afraid of is that he is a very good & kind hearted person so listening to his hellish NDE has confused me...
      Does the kind of NDE we will see not depend upon how good or bad we are?
      I mean good people can have bad NDEs and Bad people can have good ones?
      If this is true then this is very unfair and heartbreaking 💔... What's more heartbreaking is that my uncle didn't tell us about meeting their deceased relatives in his NDE...
      What confuses me the most are the japanese NDEs where they neither see any heaven nor God rather they see a river and after crossing the river they find themselves in a beautiful park...
      No one has ever seen or talked to God other than in an NDE... Does God equally loves all of us, even the bad ones & the tyrants/ bullies... If this is so, then this is unfair... Because Bullies are the worst kind of humans on this planet.

      I think the more we spread love in this life the more we will feel loved in the afterlife and the more we spread hatred, anger and tyranny, the more we will have a hellish NDE... What I believe is that God only created the Universe but he didn't created us.. It is the universe which created us... That's why there is so much suffering in this life (our universe) but there is absolutely no suffering in the afterlife (God's spiritual Realm).
      But I also use to sometime believe that the afterlife have nothing to do with God, if this life is possible without God, the afterlife can also be possible without God... Maybe the afterlife have nothing to do with God. (as suggested by japanese NDEs).. The thing which I am most afraid of is the concept of reincarnation... Like Carl Sagan said that the universe wants to know itself through humans.. I don't want to respawn in this world where there is a lot of suffering but if the universe wants to do this then I am helpless... There is only one hope that if I reincarnate I will see the Glorious future of the humans I will know more about universe and Quantum mechanics in the future world... I will know about the pictures captured and the information gained through james webb telescope and luvoir telescope and much more powerful observatories of that time...

    Here is why Chat GPT has to say about ln2
    ===
    The natural logarithm of 2 (ln 2) is an irrational number, which means that it cannot be expressed as a finite decimal or as a fraction of two integers. However, it can be expressed as an infinite series:
    ln 2 = 1 - 1/2 + 1/3 - 1/4 + 1/5 - 1/6 + ...
    This series converges to ln 2, which means that if we add up enough terms, we can get a very accurate approximation of ln 2.
    If we want to express ln 2 as a fraction, we can use the first few terms of this series to get a rational approximation. For example, if we use the first two terms, we get:
    ln 2 ≈ 1 - 1/2 = 1/2
    So we can say that ln 2 is approximately equal to 1/2. This is not an exact value, but it is a useful approximation that can be used in many calculations.
    ln 2 is a transcendental number. A number is said to be transcendental if it is not a root of any non-zero polynomial with rational coefficients. In other words, it cannot be expressed as the solution to any algebraic equation with rational coefficients.
    It is known that ln 2 is transcendental, as proved by the mathematician Charles Hermite in 1873. This means that there is no algebraic expression or fraction that can represent ln 2 exactly, and its decimal expansion goes on infinitely without repeating.
    It is not known whether ln 3 is transcendental or not. The question of whether ln 3 (or any other natural logarithm of a rational number) is transcendental is still an open problem in mathematics, which means that it has not been proven or disproven yet.
    However, it is conjectured that ln 3 is indeed transcendental, based on the fact that most natural logarithms of rational numbers are believed to be transcendental. In fact, it is believed that almost all real numbers are transcendental, in the sense that the set of algebraic numbers (numbers that can be expressed as roots of polynomials with rational coefficients) has Lebesgue measure zero.
    Despite the lack of a proof, the conjecture that ln 3 is transcendental is widely accepted by mathematicians, and it is assumed to be true in most contexts where such a result is needed.
    If someone were to prove or disprove that ln 3 (or any other natural logarithm of a rational number) is transcendental, it would be a significant result in the field of mathematics.
    If the number is proven to be transcendental, it would confirm a widely held conjecture and provide further evidence for the prevalence of transcendental numbers in mathematics. This would be a significant achievement, and the mathematician who proved it would likely receive recognition and praise from the mathematics community.
    If the number is proven to be algebraic (i.e., not transcendental), it would be a surprise and a significant result as well. It would require new techniques and ideas to be developed, as the current methods used to prove transcendence cannot be used in this case. The mathematician who proves this result would also receive recognition and praise from the community.
    Regardless of the outcome, the proof or disproof of the transcendence of ln 3 would advance our understanding of the properties of real numbers and contribute to the ongoing development of mathematical knowledge.
    It is harder to prove that ln 3 is (or isn't) transcendental than ln 2 because these are two different numbers, and each number has its own unique properties and characteristics that affect how easy or difficult it is to prove whether it is transcendental.
    One reason why it is easier to prove that ln 2 is transcendental is that there are known methods and techniques for proving the transcendence of certain numbers, such as the Gelfond-Schneider theorem. This theorem provides a criterion for determining whether a number of the form a^b, where a and b are algebraic numbers with a ≠ 0,1 and b is irrational, is transcendental or not. By applying this theorem to ln 2, we can prove that it is transcendental.
    In contrast, there is no known general method for proving that a given number is transcendental. The proof of the transcendence of a specific number often requires the development of new techniques and ideas specific to that number.
    Additionally, the fact that ln 3 is not known to be transcendental does not necessarily mean that it is harder to prove its transcendence. It may simply be that there has been less effort or attention devoted to proving the transcendence of ln 3 compared to ln 2.

    Next you could try Ramanujan and Borel summation.
    1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + ... = 1/2
    1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... = -1/12
    Then you get into the ideas of regularization and analytic continuation.
    For example consider the geometric series (valid for |z|

    There can't be an infinite number of fractions of a whole because if there was it'd be impossible to move between any two points, because at any part-way point the remaining distance could always be halved and so you'd never be able to complete that distance because no matter how close you got there'd always be a half distance to complete before the full remaining distance could be completed.
    That's also true at each part-way point which was already completed.
    But because we know movement (completing a journey) is not impossible there can't be infinite fractions of distances or spaces.

      @@sophiophile That so called solution is that despite the numbers of half ways between two points being infinite the total of every step between the same two points is finite. That's not a solution that's a restating of the problem. Modern proposals talk about different types of infinities which (like how many numbers there are compared to how many even numbers there are) which just exposes the limitations of mathematicians.
      A logical solution is that there can't be infinite fractions of a whole.

    The inifinity in act can only exist in the mind. Every physical magnitude we know of has a maximum or minimum finite limited value. So this is how we prove the existence of God: A mind that is infinite. And we, made in his imiage, can know Him and the infinite, even if it cannot exist in the physical reality.
    What can exist in the physical reality of the infinity in potency. But not in act. God is infinite in act.

    I hold the opinion that shuffling terms around can't change the true sum as you're just pushing a lot of terms away to infinity and ignoring them. Part of the confusion around this seems to stem from mathematicians being unable to comprehend infinity. Just treat it as an unknown variable of known extreme magnitude.

    • @EugeneKhutoryansky
      @EugeneKhutoryansky  Před rokem

      The sum really does converge to a different value, and we are not ignoring any of the terms. The mathematical proof is available at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_series_theorem

    4:20, 4:40... So infinity is -not- a number which can be positive or negative with a vague value used for comparing different infinities and whatever we want it to be. Invented by humans unsatisfied with reality. Infinity is not accepted by the IRS.
