  • Godel and The End of physics-Stephen Hawking

    Well now we have Stephen Hawking on board as well. #Physics at precipice, saying that a complete understanding of the universe cannot be had from a finite set of principles (laws of physics). Time & again we saw, in various models starting from Peano’s arithmetic model to Hawking’s backholes, no corner of our universe is Read more

  • Interference Pattern

    The double slit experiment (from college days) has profound implications in understanding our position in universe and nature of reality . Our knowledge of system causes different results of how the photon will act, implying if there is any pocket of universe with information about some other part, it is enough to affect the former’s Read more

    Relativity and a possible future of computation

    “One hour on this planet is 7 years on Earth” According to Einstein’s theory of Relativity, “Time” slows down near massive objects. It appears that one can use this principle to simulate an “oracle” in computational complexity that could lead to machines that solve non-computable problems (NP hard & others in dense complexity hierarchy). We Read more

  • Constraints inspiring creative outbursts from the last century.

    Constraints inspiring creative outbursts from the last century.   Constancy of the speed of light (constraint) led to theory of relativity by Einstein Uncertainty principle, where a particle does not exist until we measure one of its attributes, led to quantum mechanics : Heisenberg Hilbert just want a proof that proofs existed to prove all Read more

  • Happy Birthday Kurt Friedrich Gödel

    Kurt Friedrich Gödel was an Austrian, and later American, logician, mathematician, and philosopher who was born on April 28, 1906 and lived through January 14, 1978. Ever since I took the course on Theory of Computation, this man had a tremendous impact on my mind. He was known for his mathematical work in the 20th century, Read more
