Flatland and Minimum Action
[Addendum]
A few more observations about minimum action.
The process of minimizing the action actually leads to the conservation of energy, at least in cases where \(V\) is only a function of position. That is,…
Flatland and Minimum Action
[2 of 2]
Now let’s consider a simple but non-trivial example of how the minimum action principle works. Assume a uniform potential \(V=-kx\) and a kinetic energy \(T=\frac{1}{2} m \dot x^2\). Finally, assume tha…
Flatland and Minimum Action
[1 of 2]
Suppose we have a long board, and a flatland-inspired denizen which moves along it, perceiving at each point in time a cross section of the board. Now, let’s put nails into the board somewhat randomly a…
Looking for terminology, while writing up some speculative physics...
If we are discussing a field determined by finding a (potentially local) minimum of the integral of some action over spacetime, is there standard or natural term for the…
Another favorite puzzle:
We have a shuffled stack of 100 cards with identical backs, but different fronts: 50 red, 50 blue.
I turn over cards one at a time, so you see the front of each card in turn. At any point you can say "stop" and the…
4. There is a “multiverse’ with a reality for each possible assignment of plans to rats, and only when you start feeding the rats do you narrow down which reality you are in.
Which interpretation do you prefer?
7/7
There are various interpretations of this phenomenon. 4 of note:
1. The rat pairs communicate faster than the speed of light. (telepathy)
2. Each rat knows what food it will be offered next. Using this foreknowledge, they plan before you s…
Answer: No such distribution of plans exists: 2/3 anti-correlation is the highest possible. Anticorrelation is computable for each plan, most plans give 2/3, a few give 0. So, by linearity.
Note: While rats don’t act so oddly, there are ex…
Now suppose that you offer the paired, separated rats different types of food. Let’s say you pick two different types of chow at random for each trial. And now each pair acts differently 3/4 of the time. That is, 3/4 of the time one will e…
After many trials, you discover that if you take two paired rats out of their shared cage and offer them the same type of chow, they either both eat it or both refuse it. This happens even when the rats are well separated from each other b…
Setup: We have a supply of 3 types of lab rat chow A, B, C, and a large supply of lab rats, which arrive in caged pairs.
Rats are hungry for different types of chow at different feedings, if you offer a rat chow A, you find out if it want…
