I've read somewhere that if you consider a classical random walk driven by totally uncorrelated noise, then you can define position x and velocity v in some way such that [x,v]=1.
In physics.stackexchange.com/questions/238976/… this question, guill answers in 3) by introducing self-induction on moving electron. Can someone please explain how come self induction was produced and effected a straight moving electron?
@DavidZ I'm in grumpy mood this morning (lack of sleep) and on reflection I thought the tone was a bit immoderate, though that is the way I feel and I take none of it back.
I had the idea of a little bus roundabout using warp bubbles to have CTCs with no geodesics, but that would imply leaving a warp bubble to go on another one
Because otherwise you need overlapping bubbles and I'm pretty sure those allow closed geodesics
I don't even know if overlapping bubbles would work
That is the idea thrown aroud to prove that Alcubiere allows CTC but I haven't seen any hard computations of it
"The interior of the bubble is causally disconnected. It's not possible for the bubble to be turned off or steered from the inside. But there is no reason it cannot be affected from an outside agency at a pre-planned points, or even simply have a finite lifetime, naturally deteriorating to stop at the intended destination."
I don't mean theoretical stuffs… I have a data set of an event and I can analyze it as hadronic-level or parton-level and I would to know what is the difference
@yuggib I think one doesn't get an appreciation for what mathematical physics actually does when one hasn't first learned the physicists' way of thinking about things. I mean, you had a reason you began as a physicist and then drifted towards math, right? Do you really wish you had only studied math in the first place?
Does anyone know that website where you chuck in like a long decimal like "0.12412479812479" and it'll output the closest 'special' numbers like "Oh this number is pretty close to root 17, and a bit close to pi/7" and stuff so you can identify what your number probably is
however nowadays most mathematical physics researchers teach on mathematics departments; so if you are in a physics degree, you won't probably have any opportunity of being in contact with them
Honestly the worst abuse I've seen is not defining the covariant derivative along a curve as the covariant derivative along the pullback bundle of the curve
quadratic scalar interacting theories satisfy the Wightman axioms, need renormalization and a non-unitary change of representation, but still they have a Fock space representation
@Slereah I'm not sure what you mean - you don't get a Fock space for interacting theories because you don't get the creation and annihilation operators as modes of the free fields
@AnubhavGoel I'm not sure what you're trying to ask - the wavefunction is not a point-like object (not a physical object at all), it doesn't "move" in the classical sense.
