SUMMARY:A new perspective of entropy
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered how mathematicians "understand"? In a
 1932 lecture\, Hermann Weyl identified two key modes of mathematical
 reasoning: topology and abstract algebra. These\, he argued\, can help us
 solve problems in a way subject to the Dirichlet principle\, minimizing
 mindless calculations and maximizing insightful thoughts. Recently\, Dr.
 Tai-Danae Bradley took this idea further\, suggesting that information
 theory\, using the formular of Shannon entropy\, can bridge these two modes
 of understanding. In this lecture\, I'll explore her fascinating work\,
 "Entropy as a Topological Operad Derivation"\, and show how it offers a 
 new way to understand entropy - not just as a measure of disorder\, but
 also as a tool for mathematical reasoning. Join me to gain a fresh
 perspective on this interesting concept and its potential impact on our
 understanding of the world.\n\n[1]: Weyl\, Hermann. "Part I. Topology and
