Re: Thread for Non-CA Academic Questions
Can the resonance of a room (via what frequencies are perceived compared to the emitted ones) be used, after Fourier transform, to understand the shape of the room?
i.e. no echo or that kind of stuff, but the resonance of certain harmonics (which is known to happen but has never been used in this way)

Re: Thread for Non-CA Academic Questions
I wrote some Python code to model this. It clearly demonstrates the lack of conservation of energy of a system consisting of a body orbiting a fixed point under an inverse square law. Run in a 100x51 terminal window for best results.Me, a while ago, wrote:I'm currently trying to figure out how a universe in which Newton's second law is F=mj would behave. So far, I've determined that particles travel in parabolas (possibly degenerate) when not acted upon by any force, objects falling under a constant force with zero horizontal acceleration descend cubic curves, and that colliding objects attracted by a force rebound either superelastically or inelastic with a probability of 1 depending on how the force varies with distance — no kind of energy is in any way conserved, at least if my intuition is correct. I'm wondering what kind of work has been done on this problem.

Given a function f : {0, 1}^n --> {0, 1}^m expressed as a circuit C of classical logic gates, you can replace the gates in the circuit with reversible equivalents to yield a reversible circuit C' (which may have lots of ancillary '0' inputs and some arbitrary messy outputs):gameoflifemaniac wrote:Is it possible to emulate a normal computer in a quantum computer?
[n input bits][k ancillary '0' bits] --> [m output bits][n+k-m unwanted garbage bits]
Suppose we have another m ancillary '0' bits at this stage. Then we can CNOT the output bits with these ancillary bits to produce another copy of the output, like so:
[n input bits][k ancillary '0' bits][m extra '0' bits] --> [m output bits][n+k-m unwanted garbage bits][m output bits]
Now apply C' in reverse to the first n+k bits to clean up the mess we created:
[n input bits][k ancillary '0' bits][m extra '0' bits] --> [n input bits][k ancillary '0' bits][m output bits]
The upshot of this is that the ancillary '0' bits can be reused in a future computation. This combined circuit, ignoring the k ancillary '0' bits, actually computes the reversible function:
f : {0, 1}^(n+m) --> {0, 1}^(n+m)
(x, y) --> (x, f(x) XOR y)
Now, every reversible classical circuit is a quantum circuit (permutation matrices are unitary matrices), so this can be built out of quantum gates.

Re: Thread for Non-CA Academic Questions
In a .wav file, you simply specify the amplitude of the sound wave (using 16-bit fixed-precision reals) every 1/44100th of a second. By Nyquist's sampling theorem, this is sufficient to fully recover any frequencies up to 22050 Hz, which is the upper range of human hearing. Then, you just pass it through a digital-to-analogue converter and into a loudspeaker, which therefore vibrates according to that sound wave.gameoflifemaniac wrote:How are bits converted into music?
(Other formats such as .mp3 are more complicated, but they are ultimately decompressed into .wav files.)
It's actually thanks to Fourier who had the idea that an orchestra could be decomposed into sinusoidal waves.

Re: Thread for Non-CA Academic Questions
Why do the small stellated dodecahedron and great dodecahedron fit onto a sphere so well if they have a Euler characteristic of -6 - wouldn't it make more sense for them to tesselate a quadruple torus instead?
Help wanted: How can we accurately notate any 1D replicator?
Re: Thread for Non-CA Academic Questions
If you just look at a small stellated dodecahedron it looks like it's made out of 60 isosceles triangles with five stuck on each face of a dodecahedron. But this shape has an Euler characteristic of 2, just like the sphere. The small stellated dodecahedron only has an Euler characteristic of -6 if you consider it to be made of 12 stars which intersect each other. Since its faces intersect each other, the small stellated dodecahedron can't really be considered a valid polyhedron embedded in 3D space. So the idea of fitting it into a sphere doesn't really make sense.muzik wrote:Why do the small stellated dodecahedron and great dodecahedron fit onto a sphere so well if they have a Euler characteristic of -6 - wouldn't it make more sense for them to tesselate a quadruple torus instead?

Re: Thread for Non-CA Academic Questions
I've heard 'polytope' used to mean any of the following four (increasingly restrictive) conditions:
But anyway, I think you're arguing over whether the definition (ii) or (iii) is correct. I've seen mathematicians use any of these four definitions, so you're both right.
- Abstract polytope (a partially ordered set of faces obeying certain properties);
- Polytope which can be immersed in R^n;
- Polytope which can be embedded in R^n;
- Convex polytope.

How do i calculate the Euler characteristics of regular hyperbolic polygonal tilings, and is it possible to tessellate a certain order torus with these?
Help wanted: How can we accurately notate any 1D replicator?
Re: Thread for Non-CA Academic Questions
Do you mean the infinite tessellation of the hyperbolic plane (such as the order-3 heptagonal tiling) or finite quotients thereof (such as the Klein quartic's tiling with 24 heptagons)?muzik wrote:How do i calculate the Euler characteristics of regular hyperbolic polygonal tilings, and is it possible to tessellate a certain order torus with these?
Infinite: Read 'The Symmetries of Things' by John Conway, Heidi Burgiel, and Chaim Goodman-Strauss. If you calculate the Euler characteristic of a hyperbolic tessellation, you should end up with +infinity. But I seem to recall that the authors had a natural way to associate a finite negative number, such that it behaves correctly with respect to finite-index subgroups.
Finite: If you know the numbers of each type of face, you can calculate the number of edges. Moreover, if you know how many edges meet at a point, you can then obtain the number of vertices and calculate chi := V - E + F. If you want to ask more generally which polyhedra are possible, then this is a difficult question; even for the order-3 heptagonal case, it is essentially the study of Hurwitz surfaces:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurwitz_surface
This is deeply related to the studies of number fields, algebraic curves, and group theory.

So for polyhedra (and improper tilings?) it's 2, for Euclidean tilings it's 0, and hyperbolic tilings are infinity. Guess I won't be needing a torus for this one.
