I don't remember if I already shared this, but Klaas Landsman has written a very nice book on the #mathematics of #GeneralRelativity and published it as open access. You can buy or freely download the book from library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.… #OpenAcces
This GeoGebra app by Walther Stuzka, a retired physics teacher at a high school in Vienna, Austria, lets you explore the famous brachistochrone problem (path of quickest descent): geogebra.org/classic/jxesaf… For background, see this @3blue1brown video : youtube.com/watch?v=Cld0p3…

Why care about homoclinic orbits? Many examples of chaotic, unpredictable behavior are closely associated with homoclinics. The classic low-dimensional example is the Shil'nikov saddle-focus homoclinic, which lives in 3D. The striped rectangle flows and deforms into the spiral.

This mene was made by someone who never did a PhD. Actually the crisis begins much earlier, more or less one year before the PhD salary will end.
Find the most general, SIMPLEST, most FUNDAMENTAL assumptions whole communities make and then stick in your intellectual "knife". It takes enormous amount of time but I personally think it is quite rewarding.
The clever trick after that is to say: "if this is not known then, what does this mean for areas of research that I have not considered yet? where they might assume unknowingly that the answer to this question is instead known?".
if you do it for long enough you discover there are deeper questions that underlie a bunch of different observations. Then you can postulate that question to be general.
3. Another style which is extremely unproductive, extremely challenging psychologically is to spend inordinate amounts of time getting a sense of the information network, by asking the simple questions: "how do we know that?", "what is the underlying assumptions".
So, how to do fundamental science while solving practical problems? It is hugely challenging because just solving the problem is sufficiently complex nowadays that very little mental and physical resources are usually left in your bandwidth to pursue the fundamental stuff.
I think deontologically it is not great. It would be fine to publish attempts at solutions, labeled as such, especially if creative, AS LONG AS the requirements of the problem are clearly stated in the papers.
The reason for hiding requirements is that problems are problems because they are f&^ing hard to solve, which is incompatible with Publish & Perish. In industry if you solve ONE REAL problem in your whole career you have been hugely successful.
Typically, "let's see what happens if..." type of science is stamp collecting. Which doesn't mean it can't stumble onto value. But, with training, you can navigate the information network, and "smell" where the high value nodes are necessarily missing.
