Frederic Schuller: The Physicist Who Derived Gravity From Electromagnetism

Frederic Schuller derives gravity from electromagnetism using matter action and port-Hamiltonian methods. He explores port‑Hamiltonian methods, probability ports in quantum formalism, and the implications for causal structure and spacetime geometry.- 00:00 - Deriving Einstein from Maxwell Alone- 05:55 - Why Energy Doesn't Flow in Quantum Systems- 11:45 - How Modest Ideas Lead to Spacetime Revolution- 19:00 - Matter Dynamics Dictate Spacetime Geometry- 24:03 - Maxwell to Einstein-Hilbert Action- 31:00 - If Light Rays Split in Vacuum Then Einstein is Wrong- 38:04 - When Your Theory is Wrong- 46:10 - From Propositional Logic to Differential Geometry- 54:00 - Never Use Motivating Examples- 1:02:00 - Why Only Active Researchers Should Teach- 1:09:40 - High Demands as Greatest Motivator- 1:16:00 - Is Gravity a Force?- 1:27:00 - Academic Freedom vs Bureaucratic Science- 1:38:00 - Why String Theory Didn't Feel Right- 1:46:05 - Formal vs Conceptual Understanding- 1:54:10 - Master Any Subject: Check Every Equal Sign- 2:04:00 - The Drama of Blackboard Teaching- 2:13:15 - Why Physical Presence Matters in UniversitiesSPONSORS:- The Economist: 20% off discount https://www.economist.com/toeRESOURCES:- Join My New Substack (Personal Writings): https://curtjaimungal.substack.com- Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4gL14b92xAErofYQA7bU4e- Frederic's Papers: https://scholar.google.com/citations- Frederic's Lectures: https://www.youtube.com/@FredericSchuller- Frederic's Bio: https://people.utwente.nl/f.p.schuller- General Relativity Lecture Series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist- Quantum Harmonic Oscillator [Lecture]: https://youtu.be/s3I_MGfGm-w- Constructive Gravity [Paper]: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2003.09726- Geometry Of Manifolds [Paper]: https://arxiv.org/pdf/hep-th/0508170- Jacob Barandes [TOE]: https://youtu.be/7oWip00iXbo- Roger Penrose [TOE]: https://youtu.be/sGm505TFMbU- All Possible Paths [TOE]: https://youtu.be/XcY3ZtgYis0- Neil Turok [TOE]: https://youtu.be/ZUp9x44N3uE- Space-Time Structure [Book]: https://www.amazon.com/Space-Time-Structure-Cambridge-Science-Classics/dp/0521315204- Greg Chaitin [TOE]: https://youtu.be/PoEuav8G6sY- Ivette Fuentes [TOE]: https://youtu.be/cUj2TcZSlZc- Ted Jacobson [TOE]: https://youtu.be/3mhctWlXyV8- Eva Miranda [TOE]: https://youtu.be/6XyMepn-AZo- Jonathan Oppenheim [TOE]: https://youtu.be/6Z_p3viqW1g- String Theory Iceberg [TOE]: https://youtu.be/X4PdPnQuwjY- Sabine Hossenfelder [TOE]: https://youtu.be/E3y-Z0pgupg- Leonard Susskind [TOE]: https://youtu.be/2p_Hlm6aCok- What Is Energy?
