17:02 - 18:56 (01:53)

The study of partial differential equations (PDEs) and the underlying simple rules that govern reality were discussed. The idea that there are complex structures underneath our reality just from simple rules was explored, inspired by Stephen Wolfram's beliefs.

Summary

The satisfiability problem of propositional logic is a universal combinatorial problem, where any algorithm can be expressed as a sequence of moves of the Turing machine. This means that any non-deterministic polynomial time algorithm can be translated into the language of the satisfiability problem.
