Key ideas in The Hidden Geometry of Your World

  • Always extend the path that currently has the lowest total time from the start
  • Checking the shortest known connection first prevents missing a shortcut
  • A small delay can make an alternative branch of the network suddenly faster
  • The 'best' path depends on the relative cost of all connected options
  • Systematic pathfinding
  • Network sensitivity
  • Calculate the new total time using the shortcut
  • Why a single change in a network can invalidate the entire current best route
  • Compare the new total to the previously recorded 'best' time
  • Update the route map only if the new total is lower
  • The sequence of updating path values as new information is discovered
  • The person cutting must create two shares they value exactly the same.
  • Fairness is based on what each individual person values most.
  • The person not cutting gets to pick their favorite piece first.
  • Identical slices can have different values if the contents aren't uniform.
  • Applying the 'divider-chooser' method to ensure fairness
