I've been watching you for years. You saved me in my complex variables class. Thank you so much, you are the best channel on YouTube.

What's your set up for creating these education videos? Software, equipment, ect?

If you are a big brained enough physicist, you can use the Ising Model for epidemics.

Hello professor, Love the content you have going on nonlinear dynamics. I just wanted to ask whether there are any areas of finance where nonlinear dynamics can be applied. Thank you!

Hey I really loved your videos about complexe analysis. But you didn't covered some important topics like fourier series, fourier transform and laplace transform. I would really love if you did some videos about it, you make everything so simple and clear! And I think also that most of the people who are taking a complex analysis class would be gratefull.

Were You able to derive supply/demand curve for "n'th" producer of apples 🍎 for "m" members of apple market?
The question should lead us to understand microeconomics and how prices behave.
I hope You can help for people.
Best regards

Can you please suggest a good book for this course

Hello Professor,

Thanks for your all videos. Great explanations. I would like to ask if you know something about Meshless methods and specially Radial Basis Function kernel. How to use RBF to solve a time depending partial differential equation? How to integrate explicit time scheme in to RBF kernel? I know you are interested analytical solutions but I just want to ask.

Best regards

Wow, watching this video makes maths look sweet, I guess I wasn't learning calculus for nothing.

Something is on my mind, I need to ask someone who is really clever, so I came here. Do you think gravity is really a 'thing', a real 'force'? Einstein said gravity is a description of the curvature of spacetime. So gravity is just an apparent force, so this is why a gravity particle or graviton will never be discovered. So we learn general relativity, the geometry of spacetime, to understand what we think of as gravity. Particle physics is a totally different ball game. What do you think?

Sir please make videos for line integral, Green's theorem🥺🙏🏻🙏🏻

What is the common name for this equation?
