Humanities Area: Philosophy Speaker Series | Strong Determinism
A strongly deterministic theory of physics is one that permits exactly one possible history of the universe. In the words of Penrose (1989), "It is not just a matter of the future being determined by the past; the entire history of the universe is fixed, according to some precise mathematical scheme, for all time.” Such an extraordinary feature may appear unattainable in any realistic theory of physics. In this talk, the speaker will show how it can be achieved in a universe like ours. Share this link with guest visitors via WeChat! Center for Career Development: Join the Open House!
Come get this incredible opportunity to discover and leverage the diverse array of services offered by CCD, unlocking a world of possibilities for your future careers!
