Dmitry Podolsky has got his PhD from Landau Institute for Theoretical Physics. He currently works as postdoc at Case Western Reserve University. He is also one of the editors of NEQNET.
Again – just posted. In this lecture, Susskind continues to discuss parallel transport, covariant derivatives and curvature (last time he has focused on 2-dim surfaces, this time he turns to higher dimensional case and finally introduces curvature tensor). He also discusses 4-currents, charge conservation and energy-momentum tensor (next time, I guess, he will introduce Einstein equations 
) Oh, memories, memories…
If you also wanted to watch previous lectures, I have posted their videos here (lectures 1-5) and here (lecture 6)
