Although we perceive only 4 dimensions (3 spatial and 1 temporal), the mathematics behind string theory, which seeks to unify general relativity and quantum mechanics, indicates that there are 10 dimensions. In this video, David Prieto (Utrecht University) shows how this value is arrived at using mathematical methods, such as divergent series regularization. #physics #strings #stringtheory #dimensions #quantumgravity #popularization #mathematics #riemannhypothesis Script and presentation: David Prieto Production: Ángel Uranga, Laura Marcos Follow us on TWITTER! / ift_uam_csic INSTAGRAM! / ift_madrid TikTok! / ift_uam_csic Also on FACEBOOK! / iftmadrid And check out our website!
