Good morning! I'm so glad Bjab has rejoined the renewed blog.
Sorry for missing two posts, but I was busy exploring a recently discovered connection between seemingly distant things: the Indian mathematician Ramanujan's algorithms for expanding pi and modern CONFORMAL field theories. Yes, that magical conformal invariance again. I don't want to spam the Blog, so I'll just link to the original article: "Ramanujan's 1/pi Series and Conformal Field Theories" (October 2025) https://arxiv.org/html/2503.21656v3
The math there is quite complicated for me, but there are several links that are much clearer. Virasoro Algebras and many other wonderful things appear there...
After some reflection, I even grasped a very simple idea about why it's so natural for pi to be associated with conformal invariance. However, I'm not sure it's appropriate to present such primitive ideas here.
