Representation theory of groups

McKay conjecture

In mathematics, specifically in the field of group theory, the McKay Conjecture is a conjecture of equality between the number of irreducible complex characters of degree not divisible by a prime number to that of the normalizer of a Sylow -subgroup. It is named after Canadian mathematician John McKay. (Wikipedia).

What is the Riemann Hypothesis?

This video provides a basic introduction to the Riemann Hypothesis based on the the superb book 'Prime Obsession' by John Derbyshire. Along the way I look at convergent and divergent series, Euler's famous solution to the Basel problem, and the Riemann-Zeta function. Analytic continuation

Axioms of Lie algebra theory

In this video I write down the axioms of Lie algebras and then discuss the defining anti-symmetric bilinear map (the Lie bracket) which is zero on the diagonal and fulfills the Jacobi identity. I'm following the compact book "Introduction to Lie Algebras" by Erdmann and Wildon. https://gi

The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus | Algebraic Calculus One | Wild Egg

In this video we lay out the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus --from the point of view of the Algebraic Calculus. This key result, presented here for the very first time (!), shows how to generalize the Fundamental Formula of the Calculus which we presented a few videos ago, incorporating t

Stokes Theorem

In this video, I present another example of Stokes theorem, this time using it to calculate the line integral of a vector field. It is a very useful theorem that arises a lot in physics, for example in Maxwell's equations. Other Stokes Example: https://youtu.be/-fYbBSiqvUw Yet another Sto

Theory of numbers: Gauss's lemma

This lecture is part of an online undergraduate course on the theory of numbers. We describe Gauss's lemma which gives a useful criterion for whether a number n is a quadratic residue of a prime p. We work it out explicitly for n = -1, 2 and 3, and as an application prove some cases of Di
