In this video, we look at the mathematician’s solution to Zeno's Dichotomy Paradox, as well a potential problem with it (Thomson's Lamp). And then we consider an alternate solution in line with what Aristotle originally proposed: that the path is there first, and the parts are constructed by the analyst. Following this solution through to its proper conclusions, we find it requires quantum-like properties, such as uncertainty and superposition states.
