My name's Curt Jaimungal, a Torontonian with a degree in mathematical physics from the University of Toronto and I analyze various Theories of Everything from this analytic perspective, though more and more opening up to alternative approaches. The separating factor of TOE from other podcasts is its focus on depth even at the risk of limiting the audience due to how much detail we delve into subjects. Paralleling the intensity found in academic discourse, we're increasingly embracing a spectrum of unconventional ideas to conduct research during this podcast, rather than merely conveying existing information.

Frederic Schuller: The Physicist Who Derived Gravity From Electromagnetism
In this episode Frederic Schuller argues that gravity can be derived from electromagnetism by starting from the matter action and constructing compatible gravitational dynamics. 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?
