Last year I wrote a paper on a small connection between entropy, algebra, and topology. Today, I’m happy to share a new article on the same ideas, this time written for a *wide* audience: bit.ly/3LVp1bZ A new 5 min. explainer video is out, too! youtube.com/watch?v=8TtdmX…

New video! An adaptation of a post by @ncasenmare on contact tracing and privacy protection. It's highly counterintuitive that you can do this without tracking people's locations. youtu.be/D__UaR5MQao

gravitational 3-body problems are great for chaotic dynamics. one of my favorites is the sitnikov system: given two equal massive bodies rotating about one another on ellipses, add a third tiny mass perfectly poised between them. give it a kick & what happens?

linear dynamics given by x'=Ax (for A a square matrix) are determined by the eigenvalues of A. this example has 3 eigenvalues. when they're real, flow goes in/out along eigendirections; a complex pair yields spirals. if all 3 are the same w/one eigenvector, it "tries" to spiral.
