COMPLEXITY AND THE UNIVERSE Part I (Physics 366U or Science 318U)

Cosmological Complexity

Important message for students:

Because this subject is exploratory, a textbook does not exist. Therefore you should be aware that this is not a standard textbook course. You should be comfortable exploring new ideas and working without a textbook. We will use lectures, notes, and many new ideas.

Here are the course notes:
