Knigh4321 Posted January 24, 2003 Posted January 24, 2003 is there a connection. Could one do a college level project on the two subjects and their corralation?
JaKiri Posted January 24, 2003 Posted January 24, 2003 Well, not really, as chaos theory is a mathematical explanation for minor deviations in starting conditions causing large changes, and general relativity is about space/time curvature :|
fafalone Posted January 24, 2003 Posted January 24, 2003 I recommend reading the lectures I posted on GR http://www.scienceforums.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=390 I don't believe there is an obvious direct connection, but there are sure to be some subtle connections worth exploring. This would be a bit above the undergraduate level, as both topics pretty much graduate work... but give it a go.

JaKiri Posted January 24, 2003 Posted January 24, 2003 Originally posted by fafalone The point I was trying to make was that General Relativity is a really really poor thing to compare Chaos Theory with.
Knigh4321 Posted January 25, 2003 Author Posted January 25, 2003 so then perhaps quantum mechanics and chaos theroy would be more apporiate a subject. Though I worry it may be too broad...
Radical Edward Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 quantum chaos... not the easiest thing in the world by a long stretch. essentially what you would be looking at is the border between the quantum and classical world, something that has been occupying alot of very clever people for a long time.
Knigh4321 Posted February 1, 2003 Author Posted February 1, 2003 Does anyone know where I can get ALOT of information (from the internet mainly) on this little masterpiece (the Riemann zeta function)?
PogoC7 Posted February 1, 2003 Posted February 1, 2003 Beware. Many numbers inside. http://www.utm.edu/research/primes/notes/rh.html
Knigh4321 Posted February 9, 2003 Author Posted February 9, 2003 eigenstates and riemann's hypothesis...I'm gonna prove it (lol). or at least try...wish me luck
Chaos Theory Posted August 29, 2003 Posted August 29, 2003 Although I used Choas Theory for my handle, I don't know much about it. You can refer to the skeptics' article in my siggy if you want.
