Bekenstein bound

In physics, the Bekenstein bound (named after Jacob Bekenstein) is an upper limit on the thermodynamic entropy S, or Shannon entropy H, that can be contained within a given finite region of space which has a finite amount of energy—or conversely, the maximal amount of information required to perfectly describe a given physical system down to the quantum level. It implies that the information of a physical system, or the information necessary to perfectly describe that system, must be finite if the region of space and the energy are finite. In computer science this implies that non-finite models such as Turing machines are not realizable as finite devices. (Wikipedia).

Upper Bound

Upper and Lower Bound In this video, I define what it means for a set to be bounded above and bounded below. This will be useful in our definition of inf and sup. Check out my Real Numbers Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJb1qAQIrmmCZggpJZvUXnUzaw7fHCtoh

Sum of limits

Sum of limits In this video, I give a very classical proof that the limit of the sum of two convergent sequences is the sum of the limit of each sequence. It's mathematical analysis at its finest, enjoy the show! Other examples of limits can be seen in the playlist below. Definition of

Lorenzo Zambotti: Bessel-like SPDEs

Abstract: I will discuss integration by parts formulae on the law of the Bessel bridge of dimension less than 3 and show how this allows to conjecture the form of an associated SPDE. The most relevant case is the dimension equal to 1, which is expected to be the scaling limit of critical w
