0:00 It's history, starting with Riemann, not the time. Riemann, he was at that film trip in 1892 by flying with Caroline. It was the same tricks which suffered as the Riemann regarding the nature of the analogic manifolds, flying assets to specific manifolds, and regarded geometry as a theory of properties or figures of the matter. Arnold was not a mathematician. He naturally returned to something like this.
2:30 No shifts were thoughtful for preaching and mathematical systems. Einstein was not a mathematician. And Weil seemed to be a mathematician, to be true, long and narrow, but he was... We are continually developing the idea of differential invariant theory. Such an invariant is the abstract object which has in each coordinate system a unique set of components, each component being a function. The theory of one or more such invariants is what we call. What we have here, in a sense, thinking of what data is, is a sort of separation of this.
5:00 Thank you for your attention.
