Hopf Fibration Explained Better than Eric Weinstein on Joe Rogan

Hopf fiber bundle topology is taught as simply as possible. Physicist Roger Penrose called the Hopf fibration, "An element of the architecture of our world." Essential in at least 8 different physics applications, the Hopf fibration is a map from a hypersphere in 4D onto a sphere in 3D. Many visualizations are displayed herein. Mathematician Eric Weinstein commented on the structure on Joe Rogan's podcast as, "The most important object in the entire universe."

Including here for those interested: S0 0-sphere | Pair of points | Bounded by lines S1 1-sphere | Circle | Bounded by pairs of points (S0) S2 2-sphere | Sphere | Bounded by circles (S1) S3 3-sphere | Hypersphere | Bounded by spheres (S2) So the pair of points at the ends of a 1D line segment is considered a 0-sphere, or S0. It's hard to visualize, but a straight line is an arc of a circle whose radius is infinite. Now, a circle is bounded by those pairs of points. We say a circle is S1, or a 1-sphere, sitting in 2D space. A sphere is bounded by circles. We say a sphere is S2, or a 2-sphere, sitting in 3D space. You are probably noticing an important pattern here. Each of these structures are one dimension lower than the Euclidian space they are embedded within. This is because we are only concerned with the boundaries of each shape. So for a circle, we look at just the 1-dimensional circumference. Thus, S1. For a sphere, the surface is actually 2-dimensional. Thus, S2. Now, we are navigating beyond the limits of human perception. A hypersphere is bounded by spheres. We say a hypersphere is S3, or a 3-sphere, sitting in 4D space. This is technically impossible to visualize. At 2:58, I've included two visualizations of a hypersphere. The first is the shadow of a wire-frame surface of a hypersphere, projected in 3D. A perfect model would be an opaque object, so this cage gives you a sense of the hypersphere composed of spheres. The second is a highly polished version with a few vertices in view. Neither version is perfect, but they are the next best things compared to Hopf maps: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fi...
