SAHIL OHE.

I self-study mathematics, computation, and explanations.

"One lives and learns, I guess."

About Me.

Hi! My name is Sahil from India. I am self-studying mathematics and computer science with a research-oriented mindset. My work is guided by a strong interest in David Deutsch's four strands of explanations, which inform how I approach learning and problem-solving and life in general.

I build learning tools as a means of understanding deep concepts. Each project is an opportunity to test ideas, refine explanations, and develop better mental models.

Philosophy.

My approach to life, learning and research is grounded in critical rationalism. I believe that knowledge grows through a process of conjecture, explanation, testing, and refinement; not through appeals to authority or credential-seeking.

"Good explanations are hard to vary while still accounting for what they purport to account for."

"Problems are inevitable; Problems are soluble."

01

Explanations over authority: understanding trumps memorization.

02

Mathematics and computation as tools for building explanatory models.

03

Learning is iterative: conjecture, test, refine, repeat.

04

Credentials document past work; explanations demonstrate current understanding.

Notes & Explorations.

Explanatory Power

Discusses how an explanation (like E=mc²) provides a hard-to-vary account of reality rather than just fitting data. Focuses on why understanding matters more than correlation.

λSK Combinators & Computational Universality

Explores how complex behavior emerges from simple rules (S and K combinators) and references Wolfram’s principle of computational equivalence. Analyzing the irreducible nature of logic.

Wolfram Physics Project & Hypergraphs

Covers the emergence of spacetime from hypergraph evolution, causal invariance, and the idea that the universe is essentially a computational system evolving over time.

Isomorphism & Structural Identity

Analyzes structural identity in mathematics, arguing that objects matter only up to isomorphism and that structure, not substance, determines what a mathematical entity truly is.
