Pattern Recognition
I’ve always found these sentences in mathematics to be so lyrical. They almost want you to complete them in this way, even when we can get a little carried away.

In tumultuous times, turn to science
This year has been weird, that’s for sure. But aside from the stress and change, it’s also brought a new and interesting opportunity for me that I thought I would share: In my spare time, I’ve been writing scripts for the YouTube channel SciShow on a freelance basis. If you want a break from doomscrolling, check out my first six episodes below. Stay safe!

As a quantum theorist, I spend a lot of time thinking about high-dimensional spaces. These are the playgrounds for quantum many-body systems, and they are vast. The technical name is a Hilbert space, and it’s the space of complex vectors with the additional structure of a way to put vectors together (called an inner product). Hilbert space is big (see “The Curse of Dimensionality”), but the usable area for quantum theory is often much smaller.…
