"Theory of Everything"
Motivation
This repository is supposed to provide reference to myself, and anyone intrigued, on the "theory of everything", including general relativity, quantum mechanics, and the hopeful candidate for their unification, M theory.
After reading the content of repo (in its finished form), one, including myself, hopefully gains an insight on the mechanic of the universe, at least about its objective part.
Apparently a real mastering of all these things will be difficult, terrible, if not impossible. Instead, the target here is to provide the shortcut (geodesic, it turns out a better metaphor) to the theories involved.
The content inside has been made shortest possible, but not shorter.
It is a WIP (work in progress), because I have to first finish this journey.
Present Status
The repo contains only textbooks and some notes up to now, because its much a part of my own learning archive.
Yet, I meant to make it public in a somewhat more formalized form later, in case that it helps more people.
Presently, only general relativity folder in the repo is non-empty, and in the Textbook notes subfolder you can see the notes: only a little content on Riemann geometry. It is an unavoidable part of the relativity, and it itself is one of the most interesting one can know about the structure of spacetime.
Prerequisite
I'll be largely writing this repo to let myself and people with similar math/physics foundation to understand, so it is actually a quite low standard (LOL).
To be more specific,
- Multivariable calculus
- Newtonian mechanics
Nothing more (temporarily), and both in the sense of an ordinary engineering student would learn in the introductory courses.
I'll try to fix some contents where I escaped to VV285/VV286 slides, or just upload a copy of the slides.
