The Emergence of Time, What Lies Beneath?

Posted on January 10, 2005 by PlatoHagel

The intuitive classical space-time picture breaks down in quantum gravity, which makes a comparison and the development of semiclassical techniques quite complicated. Taken in context of how supersymmetrical levels could have ever been reached, is really a wonderful thnng to … Continue reading →

Quantum Gravity at Planck Length

Posted on January 7, 2005 by PlatoHagel

It was necessary to bring some of this infomration here while things are getting sorted out elsewhere. 6.4 Spacetime Topology Change by Joseph Polchinski This subsection is not directly related to black holes, but deals with another exotic question in … Continue reading →

Primordial Gravitational Waves

Posted on January 6, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Although I have designated the title above, I want to add current trends for future observations by speaking to this one first. It is sometimes evident that such comments made by Peter Woit would have to have enormous amounts of … Continue reading →

Light Humour From Another

Posted on January 5, 2005 by PlatoHagel

When your feeling all alone in the dimensional world, think about Homer’s triumph:) Well, it should be obvious to even the most dim-witted individual who holds an advanced degree in hyperbolic topology, that Homer Simpson has stumbled into… the third … Continue reading →

GR Reduced From Higher Dimensions?

Posted on January 4, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Earlier in my blog, I posted a subject called the Classical discription of the quantum world Now it was a big leap of faith on my part that I saw these events as distilliations of a larger and more dynamic … Continue reading →

Induction and Deduction

Posted on January 3, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Our attempt to justify our beliefs logically by giving reasons results in the “regress of reasons.” Since any reason can be further challenged, the regress of reasons threatens to be an infinite regress. However, since this is impossible, there must … Continue reading →

Roger Penrose and the Quanglement

Posted on January 1, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Order and Chaos, by Escher (lithograph, 1950) I will give Peter Woit and the group time to formulate the topic that should present itself shortly on their blog gathering. How the integration and question presented by Penrose was very helpful … Continue reading →

A Sphere that is Not so Round

Posted on December 31, 2004 by PlatoHagel

Of course the most basic shape for me would be the sphere, but in our understanding of the earth and the images that we see of earth, our view is shattered by the first time we seen this enormous object, … Continue reading →

Where to Now?

Posted on December 30, 2004 by PlatoHagel

Once you see parts of the picture, belonging to the whole, then it becomes clear what a nice picture we will have?:) I used it originally for the question of the idea of a royal road to geometry, but have … Continue reading →

The Sound of the Landscape

Posted on December 29, 2004 by PlatoHagel

Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, UK As you know my name is Plato (The School of Athens by Raphael:)I have lived on for many years now, in the ideas that are presented in the ideas of R Buckminister Fuller, and with the … Continue reading →
