The Nature of Causation: The Counterfactual Theory of Causation
In this second lecture in this series on the nature of causation, Marianne Talbot discusses the counterfactual theory of causation. We have causal theories of reference, perception, knowledge, content and numerous other things. If it were to turn out that causation doesn’t exist, we would

This lecture is part of an online course on Galois theory. This is an introductory lecture, giving an informal overview of Galois theory. We discuss some historical examples of problems that it was used to solve, such as the Abel-Ruffini theorem that degree 5 polynomials cannot in genera

Does Infinite Cardinal Arithmetic Resemble Number Theory? - Menachem Kojman
Menachem Kojman Ben-Gurion University of the Negev; Member, School of Mathematics February 28, 2011 I will survey the development of modern infinite cardinal arithmetic, focusing mainly on S. Shelah's algebraic pcf theory, which was developed in the 1990s to provide upper bounds in infinit

R. Dujardin - Some problems of arithmetic origin in complex dynamics and geometry (part3)
Some themes inspired from number theory have been playing an important role in holomorphic and algebraic dynamics (iteration of rational mappings) in the past ten years. In these lectures I would like to present a few recent results in this direction. This should include: the dynamica

Lecture 9 | String Theory and M-Theory
(November 23, 2010) Leonard Susskind gives a lecture on the constraints of string theory and gives a few examples that show how these work. String theory (with its close relative, M-theory) is the basis for the most ambitious theories of the physical world. It has profoundly influenced

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

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Galois theory. We define the discriminant of a finite field extension, ans show that it is essentially the same as the discriminant of a minimal polynomial of a generator. We then give some applications to algebraic number fields. Corr
