Length Limitations in Mathematics, Physics, and Theories
2:27:58 - 2:33:47 (05:49)
In mathematics, there aren't infinite length proofs, whereas in physics, the universe can be wandered around forever until running into a black hole where time stops. The interplay between concepts and theories, such as black holes and undecidability, can play a role in mathematics.

A lot of theories in one area of mathematics play into another area of mathematics.
2:31:41 - 2:33:47 (02:06)
Summary
A lot of theories in one area of mathematics play into another area of mathematics. Understanding the metamathematical space may explain why different areas of mathematics ultimately map into the same thing.
