Andrew Strominger | Black Holes: The Most Mysterious Objects in the Universe

Third Annual Yip Lecture
Title: Black Holes: The Most Mysterious Objects in the Universe
Abstract: In the last decade black holes have come to center stage in both theoretical and observational science. Theoretically, they were shown a half-century ago by Stephen Hawking and others to obey a precise but still-mysterious set of laws which imply they are paradoxically both the simplest and most complex objects in the universe. Compelling progress on this paradox has occurred recently. Observationally, they have finally and dramatically been seen in the sky, including at LIGO and the Event Horizon Telescope. Future prospects for progress on both fronts hinge on emergent symmetries occurring near the black holes. An elementary presentation of aspects of these topics and their interplay will be given.
Andrew Strominger is the Gwill E. York Professor of Physics and a senior faculty member at the Black Hole Initiative at Harvard University.
Introduction: Horng-Tzer Yau (Harvard CMSA and Mathematics) and Peter Galison (Harvard Physics & Black Hole Initiative)
Moderator: Daniel Kapec (Harvard CMSA)
The Yip Lecture takes place thanks to the support of Dr. Shing-Yiu Yip.

One of my favorite videos I have ever seen on RUclips ❤THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!! Beautiful 🤩
No one will listen and Nature rejects my articles last year-so does Entropy… Yet I understand everything you said so well, so outside the box! And I also know what the missing information is. It makes perfect sense to me. Thinking about the world in a different way is the answer. It’s why I left graduate school to write my own book. Thank you you beautiful human I love you so much ❤😊
I can’t even believe there are not more likes or comments. What?!? ❤😮
People don’t understand that it’s more difficult these days for something truly revolutionary because there is so much information. There is a spiral 🌀 on the cover of my first book LOL. Because it describes an information quality of the universe. People think I am crazy but it’s because they can’t reinterpret everything. 🤷‍♀️
I went to a “conformal geometry” lecture a few days ago with my MENSA group… for the WONDRIUM foundation in the Bay Area out here. Specifically because I need mathematics for black holes and he had an animation of light around a black hole…
I spoke with Kip Thorne a couple years ago about frame-dragging and stuff because Interstellar is the theory in my first book in movie form-the “bulk beings” helping us thing anyway. The gravity and backward in time stuff all is in my first book 20 years ago. I have progressed exponentially since then because no one can understand what I am saying so I just kept doing it by myself. They don’t understand that there are domains of information beyond what they assume are available. So it’s very difficult. Anyway I definitely tend to be long winded. In sum, I just wanted to send vibes of pure love and appreciation for you and your beautiful mind. I love you so much! ❤
Oh my god I know what everything is you are talking about because I predicted all those things. Just WOW. 😮❤️‍🔥🙏🏻
There’s a way to see what is going on in a black hole beyond the event horizon. I definitely figured that one out. It sounds crazy to say until I show how to validly and more parsimoniously reinterpret some other things. I left graduate school after 4 years to write my own book on this stuff. So I am extremely happy. I have a problem with loving people in general probably too much but holy cow I don’t even know what to say about you. This stuff is actually really really important to the future of Earth. So it’s super important. Thanks 🙏🏻 ❤again and again. Like over and over in a spiral fashion. 😂 👍🏻
I hope you don’t show all your friends what I wrote and make fun of it, but if you do, I hope you get a lot of endorphins at my expense at least. Because I love you that much. ❤

I like the idea that intelligence information is stored, structured, in holographic format on the surface of plank scale gravitational deeps. Imagine that as the well evaporates each sub-part holds an almost complete image of the whole hole.

[@Achrononmaster]

It is not *_that_* type of "holography". In a hologram parts of the image can contain _some_ information about the whole object, but (1) never all the 3D info, and (2) a hologram medium is not truly 2D. The black hole and AdS/CFT holography principles are also not 2D, the information cannot be at the boundary of spacetime or a black hole unless spacetime was actually 3+1-D. And on a black hole the information is highly scrambled on the so-called stretched horizon boundary (3D) and is not a hologram, remove parts of the boundary and parts of the information go away.

@@Achrononmaster nevertheless, Planck scale gravitational deeps may evaporate information in units that transmit a fuzzy part of the whole. I know no constraints.
