I watched all of his lecture in youtube.

then i realized F1 reminds me monad which Leibniz said.

He is a living legend. I'm glad he's on youtube.

Forgive the probably silly question... Is there a notion of a "1-adic" completion of Q, as there is for any other positive characteristic? If so, is it just the reals, or is it some other object which isn't a genuine complete field? If not, why should the notion of Q_p not extend (Arakelov theoretically, probably, but I don't know any Arakelov theory really) to characteristic one?

Very informative video, thanks!

Joint paper!

The relationship with the Riemann Zeta Function........because there is a conjecture relating to that the Great Mr Connes is probably trying to demystify.....

[quillendaniel]

Brilliant .....of course....
