This video is my best shot at animating and explaining my favourite proof that pi is irrational. It is due to the Swiss mathematician Johann Lambert who published it over 250 years ago. The original write-up by Lambert is 58 pages long and definitely not for the faint of heart (www.kuttaka.org/~JHL/L1768b.pdf). On the other hand, among all the proofs of the irrationality of pi, Lambert's proof is probably the most "natural" one, the one that's easiest to motivate and explain, and one that's ideally suited for the sort of animations that I do. Anyway it's been an absolute killer to put this video together and overall this is probably the most ambitious topic I've tackled so far. I really hope that a lot of you will get something out of it. If you do please let me know :) Also, as usual, please consider contributing subtitles in your native language (English and Russian are under control, but everything else goes).

Ye i came here to tell that

Regarding the first puzzle : log10(2) cannot be rational. The same method can be used, and it is trivial to show that no power of two can be divisible by a power of 10 (Except 10^0, of course). log7(8/9) cannot be rational either. log7(8/9) = log7(8) - log7(9); and log7(8) cannot be rational since 7 is odd and 8 is even. This leaves the woodlog. We need to go down two paths for this, assuming the drawing represents a real situation : 1. Either woodlogs are incapable of reason or speech. In which case, this one could be part of the few rational/speaking ones, but it is unlikely such a behavior would evolve so fast without intermediary steps. 2. Or woodlogs are capable of reason and speech, usually. Yet, they never speak. They get chopped, sawed, burnt, and they still don’t speak. If they are both rational and willing to go through this shutting up, they must have a damn good reason. Yet this log just broke millenias of omerta over a pun. I can’t imagine a situation in which that’s rational.

Francesco Malhabile Just to point out if log7(9) is irrational then your proof for log7(8/9) no longer works. (x=Pi,y=Pi + 1, x-y=-1)

@korayacar1444

5 жыл бұрын

log7(9) is indeed irrational, you simply can’t find a rational number a/b that satisfies 7^a=9^b. And so, the proof is as follows: Assume log7(8/9) = a/b where a,b are whole numbers 7^(a/b)=8/9 | ^b 7^a=(8/9)^b *7^a=(8^b)/(9^b)* The left side is always a whole number when a is positive, whereas this doesn’t hold for any signed b on the right side. Turn this around: 1/(7^a)= *7^(-a)=(8^(-b))/(9^(-b))* =(9^b)/(8^b) The left side is always a whole number when a is _negative,_ whereas this doesn’t hold for any signed b on the right side. Since a can’t be positive or negative, it’s 0 by default, and when a=0, this means that b=0 too. 0/0 is indeterminate, which is a contradiction to the assumption that a/b is rational. => log7(8/9) can’t be rational! Proofs like these are why general statements about irrationals shouldn’t be used carelessly. With this proof format in mind, all that is needed to be accepted is basic algebraic manipulation, not assumptions that look like they’re begging for a counterexample. edit: spelling

@davidalexander4505

Here is an easier way: it is easy to show directly that every subset of the natural numbers which is bounded above is finite. Assuming an infinite, strictly decreasing sequence existed, the first term bounds the sequence above. Thus, there are only finitely many numbers in the sequences. But there are infinitely many numbers in the sequence because it is strictly decreasing. Contradiction.

Beginning at 7:08 the series for "cos x" has "x/2" instead of "x²/2". When you expand the multiplications of x it is all solved, so it doesn't change the final result. Just pointing the typo if you want to correct it with a commentary on youtube. Great work ^^

What a great topic to analyze. Thank you so much for taking the time to create these magnificent animations.

i like how you present proofs sir. showing their sketch first and then filling in the gaps makes it both easy to understand them and remember, and leaves no room to get lost while we fill in the gaps later on. i recall countless times being totally lost after already like a half hour long proof done in a from a to z fashion what are we even proving in the first place..

I love how much fun these guys always have filming their videos. It always makes me happy.

0:29 - I'd love to see Vihart's reaction to that sentence.

log_10(2) = a/b [for some integers a, b, with b not zero] 2 = 10^(a/b) 2^b = 10^a 2^b = (5^a)(2^a) 5 divides 2 Contradiction. Therefore we conclude that log_10(2) is irrational. log_7(8/9) = a/b 8/9 = 7^(a/b) (8^b)/(9^b) = 7^a 8^b = (7^a)(9^b) = 2^3b 7 divides 2 Contradiction. Therefore we conclude that log_7(8/9) is irrational.

This animation made following what was happening soooo much easier than just going page by page. Thanks so much.

At 17:27, if we ignore the 1 and set it to x, doesn't that equation have two answers, being both 1 and 2, as the equation simplifies to x = 2/(3-x), and solving the equation results in valid answers for x being equal to both 1 and 2?

@maxprofane

My exact thoughts. I don't how we could show it is not 2 though. Any ideas?

I proved that infinite fraction at 6:00! Remember the fraction is 1+(1/(1+(1/(2+(1/(1+(1/(2+(1/...). we set the whole fraction equal to x so now x = (the fraction) we now subtract 1 on both sides, and then take the reciprocal of both sides . Leaving us with 1/(x-1)= 1+(1/(2+... Now we set the whole thing equal to z so now z =1/(x-1)= 1+(1/(2+... If you look at the fraction it's just a repeating pattern of 1 +...and 2+..., if we cover the first 1 +... and 2+... It's still the same pattern of 1+... and 2+.... Which is precisely our z! We can actually plug in z so now it's z=1+(1/(2+(1/z))) plug in z for the 1/(x-1) we get 1/(1-x)=1+(1/(2+(1/(1/(x-1))))) unfold bottom to top we get 1/(x-1)= (x+2)/(x+1) Cross multiply and rewrite as a quadratic in standard form gets you 0=x^2-3 add 3 on both sides and take the square root gives you x= ±sqrt(3). Throw out the negative sqrt(3) because it isn't a solution for the original equation. Finally by substitution, 1+(1/(1+(1/(2+(1/(1+(1/(2+(1/...).= sqrt(3) This proof would be better with actual visuals and math speak but it works.

One fatal flaw in your proof: You let x be a number equal to that object. The problem is, you haven't yet proved that object really is a number! Here is why that matters: I will prove -1 = 0 1) Let x be the number 1 + 1 + 1 + ... 2) Note that we have -1 + x = -1+(1 + 1 + 1 + ...) = 1 + 1 + 1 + ... = x 3) That is x-1=x 4) Subtracting x from both sides yields -1 = 0 as needed.

Assuming Log2=a/b and a,b are positive integers also b>a because log2 is not bigger than 1 but bigger than 0, then 2=10^(a/b) 2^b=10^a 2^b=(2^a)(5^a) 2^(b-a)=5^a 2 is an even number while 5 is odd. So this equation cant be correct while (b-a) and a are postive integers. Therefore log2 cant be rational, it is irrational

So 2^b = 10^a cannot hold with integers.

Yeah, cute. But to be rigorous (!), it should be 3HO. :-)

3ho = ho+ho+ho (ho)^3 = (ho).(ho).(ho) = hohoho [ 1 1 1 ] . ho = [ ho ho ho ] I think the vector makes more sense, but it's less "t-shirt friendly" ;)

Thanks sir for these kinds of videos, now I'm getting addicted of watching your videos, it's really increasing my curiosity. Thanks for the wonderful and unique animation.

This was amazing, thank you for visualising such an interesting proof.

zeroth

what if b=a/2 c=b/2 d=c/2 e=d/2 and so on? every term would be less than the previous term and still be rational: a/2^n. PS: I am NOT saying pi is rational. I felt that this explanation was a bit incomplete to my expectation.(not saying that it is, I just felt so)

i actually was having the same misunderstanding. the fact the A, B, C, ... are integers solves it for me. :) thx

Oh and thank you! Merry christmas & happy holidays!

That shirt is amazing! It took me a few minutes to work out that it was a base-conversion holiday pun. I'd wear that shirt all year long.

Very nice proof! I was able to follow all the logic, though I'd have to muddle through the details in order to reproduce the proof. I've looked at other proofs of the irrationality of pi, but I was never able to follow them. Good job!

Fröhliche weihnachten zurück, a merry xmas back to you😉

This channel is wonderful. You making proving things for the sake of proving things fun and exciting. That's hard to do!

I appreciate the effort to make these over 100 slides thanks! I wonder if the final proof was around 40 pages long how many pieces of paper he went through coming up with it? the economics of the availability of paper might actually have been an issue so long ago! im going through all your videos now thx

love it, merry christmas.

It was a great, accessible video. Thanks to that, i was able to focus my attention to finding out flaws. And having seen an other of your videos, i'm now very sceptical about the entire adding and subtracting the "infinite series" denominator"; that too after re-arranging the terms.

Thank you for working so hard on those slides for the infinite fraction, I finally understand how to create them now! I've been trying to learn for months

Also I absolutely searched for this video because it's pi day

You are awesome and the internet appreciate the hours you spend of this presentation...

That is wonderful to see. This way of rendering mathematics is very very pleasant. Well, you make it look joyous and effortless to yourself. The animations allow the imagination and working - mathologising - brain to gen and enjoy. Thank you.

Awesome, continue doing videos like this, don't know how much you helped me.
