Apr 14, 2021 at 5:04 | comment | added | Incnis Mrsi | There is some hype about alleged physical relevance of p-adic numbers (in fact, Ī̲ know in person several researchers who built their career upon it), but—as for $\mathbb{Q}_p$—these are either overreaching generalizations or barren conjectures, whereas complex numbers are justified by quantum mechanics alone. | |
