Dream 2

The following night, I dreamt I was at some lecture and some guy was, in his overheads, complaining that SFT was useless, by going through researcher-by-researcher the work of everyone in the field. He had a two-column slide, the left column of which was about someone's work on low-power SFT. There was a 12V on the slide, and I remember the guy ( Read more... )

You have a thesis?

This is a totally awesome dream story. It should be published more widely.

I once had a dream about abelianization of rank 2 theta functions. It had to do with obtaining an explicit cell decomposition of a moduli space of moduli spaces. Can't say it gave me any new math insights, but it was an awesome dream idea!
