Aug 18, 2008 - Comment by Dave2: ¶ Gravatar image. Oct 29, 2009 - So we can classify objects based on how many symmetries they have. Oct 18, 2013 - Great result Tom and well-earned - I'm going to verify the counts out to depth 13, and that's probably taking me longer than it took you to solve the whole thing. Loosely speaking, the more symmetric something is, the more symmetries it has. Dec 12, 2007 - This makes sense, because a symmetry describes what doesn't vary even as things change—the solid truth beneath the superficial difference. We cannot think about the world without thinking of it in historical terms. Nov 2, 2012 - Until that drink, Plato's notion of a pure world of form to which the world perceived by humans was but a shadow was just something I had come across in books. White indicates no amplitude, black indicates large amplitude, and the color scale is somewhat logarithmic to make things easier to see. It's a fun toy to play with from time to time, and there's some things that would be horribly difficult to create manually that's a breeze in Symmetries. Jul 31, 2012 - This time Gross told us that he has heard of something that may answer the question. The lattice has $D_{6}$ symmetry, and three of the elements (vertical reflection $\sigma_v$, horizontal reflection $\sigma_h$, and $\pi/3$ rotation $C_6$) are shown for reference. While the purple dots are free to move horizontally and vertically in the plane. Actually there's a lot to learn even from this low level of sophistication. Check the mechanism in this seminal paper that started the whole thing (multiverse, 10^500 etc): http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-th/0004134. Have been grouped together by which of the 8 symmetries it belongs to. 3 days ago - 2:41 AM, May 28, 2014 · Sabine Hossenfelder said Giotis, In my (admittedly somewhat sketchy) understanding, the value of the CC is one one of the criteria that distinguish the different compactifications, they may have the same CC but still differ in particle content or symmetry groups, correct me if I'm wrong. He called it the eightfold way (he was very good at naming things) and only later realized that there already existed a mathematical language for his method. Apr 28, 2010 - I hope that it is sufficient to suggest to the interested reader the possibilities for an analysis of history in terms of subtle symmetries.
