   > that the divergence has a product rule, the derivative of Lambda with G mu nu left alone, plus Lambda times the derivative of G mu nu, that the derivative of G mu nu dies, that means that the only thing that you can count on is, is that the derivative of Lambda has to die. That is what doomed Einstein to having to include this goddamn term in his equation, which he never liked because it was just, there were three terms. There was the beautiful term,

   and that technically can sort of accommodate dark energy, but it's preposterous. So assume that the experimental result fell apart. I'd be in the same place I was in the 80s. This is not going to hold. This is completely artificial. Einstein was correct. And if he had the courage of his convictions, I think what he would have done is to recognize that the entire Einstein field equations cannot live on in this fashion where you've got one term that's perfect and two terms that are unggainainely to say the least and preposterous to say more. You know, we were talking in particular about a piece …

   I've written this very slowly because I don't know, you'll find this in many advanced books, but you may not find it in our textbook. So if you don't follow something, you should tell me. There's plenty of time to do this, so I'm in no rush at all. These are purely mathematical manipulations. We have not done anything involving physics. You all follow this? Yes? Okay. Now you have to ask yourself the following. I love this argument. Even if you don't follow this, I'm just going to get it off my chest, it is so clever, and here is the clever part - this is supposedly a function of time, you agr…

   I accept general relativity,  but everything we do is slightly wrong. We call,   we call Pati-Salam by the wrong name. We have  the wrong grand unified real forms of the group.   SU five is really SU three comma, uh, SU three  comma two. SO 10 is really spin 10 and spin 10   is really spin six comma four. Like the amount of  wear and tear on the mind to hear somebody say,   no, no, no. I accept all these things, but  we've, we've minorly got everything shifted. I   think there's a huge barrier to entry in Geo. But …

   > then in effect, that isn't true anymore. So the paths always have to be finite. So it's as if time stops. So what you end up with is what in a black hole is this physical path stopping, in meta-mathematics is the proof stops. So QED is like a singularity. Yes. QED in the sense of at the end of the proof. Right. And so then it gets even funkier because in general relativity, we know

   Prof: It's the state of definite energy. Remember, we said functions of definite energy obey that equation. So that Y is really just Y_E. So now I'll put these two pieces together, and this is where those of you who drifted off can come back, because what I'm telling you is that the Schrˆdinger equation in fact admits a certain solution which is a product of a function of time and a function of space. And what we found by fiddling around with it is that F(t) and Y are very special, and F(t) must look like e^(‚àíiEt/ ‚Ñè), and Y is just our friend, Y _E(x), which are functions associated with a…

   So when plotted as a function of w, K should look like a straight line with intercept W. And that's what you find. In fact, this is one way to measure the work function. How much energy do we need to rip an electron out of a metal depends on the metal. And you shine light and you crank up the frequency, till something happens. And just to be sure, you go a little beyond that and you find that the kinetic energy grows linearly in w. Anyway, this is how one confirmed the existence, indirect existence, of photons. There's another experiment that also confirmed the existence of photons. Look, that…

   So I mean I'm fond of taking that line of discussion too but I think of it more as a postdiction rather than a prediction for the very reason that you mentioned. We've known about gravity. Isaac Newton wrote down a mathematical understanding of gravity. But if you imagine a counterfactual universe for instance a universe in which there was no Einstein and we did not have Einstein's general theory of relativity and yet somehow people came upon string theory and they began to study the mathematics of string theory within the math of string theory a clever string theorist would extract the genera…

   Actually, Schrödinger did that,   right? Schrödinger had a modified idea. Again,  Schrödinger had an idea of modified gravity.   And he said, “no, no, no, no. Einstein does  these non-symmetric metrics. But actually,   a deeper structural concept than the  metric is the connection.” And there   are connections that come from a metric, and  they're more general connections, right? So,   that was Schrödinger's idea. Actually, a wonderful  book by Schrödinger, Space-Time Structure.   A very beautiful, thin book o…

    And the problem is that even though quantum mechanics works incredibly well in the micro domain and general relativity works incredibly well in the macro domain, whenever you try to put the two mathematical theories together, it breaks down. When you do any calculation that blends the math of quantum mechanics and the math of general relativity, you get one single answer. And that answer is infinity. And infinity might sound well that's kind of you know cool and poetic sounding but it's nonsensical in the context of physics. There's no quantity that you can measure that's ever infinity. So inf…
