Ok. But….Also a layperson’s term for flatland viewing an ambient space for an embedded/immersed sub-manifold. Also for a Kaluza Klein theory or a general fiber bundle projection. Or for worm holes and non trivial topology. Etc | |||
In other words, it means almost nothing. | |||

|content=[Note for Curt: This is the whole point of [[Theory of Geometric Unity|Geometric Unity]]. They are three geometries. Which are all one geometry, and that is only possible in the rarest of circumstances. Which we are in oddly. | |||
Metric Geometry: General Relativity GR | |||
Fiber Geometry: Standard Model SM | |||

|content=I'm confused. This lecture doesn't negate the geometric foundations of GR. Einstein differentiates between how gravity and electromagnetism relate to the structure of space, all the while pointing to his ultimate goal of unification. As for the rest of the original article linked, I'm unsure how the quotes from Einstein support the author's title. GR is indeed a geometric theory; however, Einstein's viewpoint was that its geometric nature doesn't singularly distinguish it from the broader domain of physics, where geometry has always played a fundamental role. If anything, Einstein is saying not to confuse the map with the territory. | |||

|content=He is correctly anticipating the Simons-Yang discovery of the “Wu Yang dictionary”. | |||
Maxwell became Yang Mills | |||
Yang Mills became Simons Yang. | |||
Simons Yang became the Wu Yang Dictionary. | |||
Wu Yang was (except for one entry) was Ehressmann fiber bundle geometry. | |||
Think of metric geometry, fiber geometry and symplectic geometry as the geometry of symmetric metric 2-tensors, fiber bundle connections and anti-symmetric 2 tensors respectively. | |||
