Interview at CIRM : Peter Scholze

Peter Scholze became known as a mathematician after finishing his Bachelor's degree in three semesters and his Master's degree in two further semesters. Scholze's subsequent PhD-thesis on Perfectoid spaces yields the solution to a special case of the weight-monodromy conjecture.

He was made full professor shortly after completing his PhD, the youngest full professor in Germany.

Since July 2011 Scholze is a Fellow of the Clay Mathematics Institute. In 2012 he was awarded the Prix and Cours Peccot. He was awarded the 2013 SASTRA Ramanujan Prize. In 2014 he received the Clay Research Award. In 2015 he will be awarded the Frank Nelson Cole Prize in Algebra, and also the Ostrowski Prize.

According to the University of Bonn and to his peers, Peter is one of the most brilliant researchers in his field...

Peter, I highly admire your Mathematical abilities. Although I'm only 17 with very little expertise and knowledge I always consider you my idol.

[Myrslokstok]

The way his mind and eyes work is amazing. But I just drifted in to it holding my iphone 20 cm away. You can just feel his energy it is like he lives in his mind.

[albertosamaniego]

International Mathematic Olympiad legend!

[venaterox]

yo he's simultaneously thinking about a math problem while carelessly answering the interview

[gchtrivs]

Looks like a great guy. Would love to have a beer with him.

[dr.mohamedaitnouh]

He sounds humble and really smart eyes!

[peterbietenholz]

3:30 He tries to refer to Zeno's famous "paradox" of the race between Archill and the tortoise.

[clarencejohncabahug]

Can't believe Boyinaband won a Fields Medal.

[bloody_tea]

This guy looks like nick from the fear of the walking dead.

[applecake]

It is rare that outstanding mathematicians are handsome. He played bass in a heavy metal band.

[stanislavsolc]

Helllo Peter im your big fan Stan Šolc-Scholze, just keep going you are the best man :D

[MarcyMoe]

krass Klapse Mane hat neben seiner Rapkarriere schon ordentlich abgeliefert

[dodgecrockett]

I couldn't understand what he said at 3:50 - 3:57. Can anybody help me with that?

[makkabaion]

Why do you interview him in English? He is clearly uncomfortable. You should do it in German and add subtitles.

[Vicky-pbhg]

What is the make/model of the watch he is wearing (4:14)? Looks elegant.

[Sebastians]

I can't figure out what he's talking about, his German accent is really tough

[SoSikWitIt]

Why did a random guy send link on yt to this

[irenestubert]

Noch nie habe ich einen Mann erlebt, der auch nur annähernd so gut entwickelte, liebevolle Ausdrucksformen hat wie Sie. Seit vier Jahren setzen Sie damit in mir dauerhaft ungeahnt viel Energie und Kreativität frei, z. B.  wenn ich mir vorstelle, wie viele Tausende Male schöner Ihr Gesang ist im Vergleich zu bislang bekannten Sängern. Ich denke, Sie können noch viel mehr Menschen zu liebevoller, gesunder, umweltfreundlicher Forschung und Kunst anregen. Herzlichen Glückwunsch und alles Liebe zum Geburtstag von Irene Stubert

I thought you might appreciate my conjecture on consciousness and the nature of reality. Among other things, I discuss Gödel's incompleteness theorem, Mamikon's constant area theorem, and Pythagoras' hypotenuse and the trammel. I stress ideas in geometry and topology. My goal is to describe an ABSTRACT model of reality, show the parts and how those parts interact. I show no proofs or equations. Instead, I detail parallels in the model's form and function. I draw a picture using the models of science.
My insights are mostly observational, with some speculation. With such a large topic as the nature of reality, topical integration and completeness may vary. I don't know everything. Here is the very informational INTRODUCTION:
In the objective concrete linear world of quantity, equations, and measurement of the uncountable, all things exist in their own unique locations in time and space. This is the perspective of differences; of the quantities of qualities. This is objective scientific reality, which has a counterpart.
Perpendicular to linear is the lateral perspective of reality. In the subjective abstract lateral world of quality, relations, and functional analysis of the countable, all things exist in the same time and space. This is the perspective of similarities; of the qualities of quantities which exist in the abstract. This is subjective personal reality.
All things exist in both the objective concrete and the subjective abstract. All things are both the observer and the observed. All things, both objective and subjective, (including the dynamic quantum resonant structure of consciousness), exist according to a single process which I describe.
The video is quite dense with information. The attentive viewer may need to take an occasional break. For best comprehension, integrate everything as you go. This work is visual. Words support the drawings which guide the flow.
