🧵 Langlands Program

Every mathematician and mathematical physicist should be working on this, because it will open the floodgates to our understanding of everything described by mathematics, from number theory to physics. Hardly anyone is working on it because it's so interdisciplinary, and modern academics only want to stay in their little specialized lane. Langlands is how we become a type III civilization. It should be the singular focus of the entire human race, but instead we're focusing all our resources and talent on building retarded chatbots.

Give me a single application of this schizobabble to physics.

Isn't it more like nobody even knows where to begin with proper research on this that actually would lead somewhere?

QFT, CFT, guage theory, Yang-Mills, string theory, and likely heretofore undiscovered theories that could be uncovered with new mathematical insights. Mathematical progress has always led the way in the development of new physical theories.

The problem is that mathematics has become so specialized that there haven't been more than a handful of geniuses with the breadth of understanding to grasp all the different threads and connections in the Langlands program. We need a new approach to academic study which is broader and less specialized.

maybe start hiring people who have their own ideas instead of pumping subservient students into PhD positions for their merit of being obedient

>blah blah blah
I know all these things except string schizo bullshit. I asked you for an example application. Pseud larper.

Not a single thing in physics came out of the Chinese remainder theorem. Don’t overgeneralize.
