Started a new blog post on Principal Bundles at www.shiraz-k.com! It's a long way away, but I'm excited about how this illustration turned out:

Visited Emmy Noether today at Bryn Mawr PA! Here’s a lovely plaque that has inscribed on it her famous Noether’s theorem from physics and the defining feature of a Noetherian ring

Michael Spivak had some genuinely insane book covers. These are from his 3-volume differential geometry series

I think i disagree here. He tends to be incoherent and grumpy in general, the fewer words he uses the less sense it makes to me (possibly due to cultural differences). If anything I thought panel 3 was uncharacteristically precise for him

I've been having trouble using Google Scholar using Safari (MacOS) for about half a year now. Google continues to stoop lower. discussions.apple.com/thread/25605...

Going to try out Semantic Scholar, SciSpace, and other alternatives for now.

It unfortunately IS in Leibniz notation 😭 it’s incredible because we suppress the thing (\delta f… not to be confused with \partial f!) that the differential operator dJ is acting on. Thats not to say that “dJ(df)” would cause me any less pain

Found this quote from Goethe in a book about homogeneous spaces..?? the authors cheekily recontextualized the word mannigfaltigen (manifold)
