Dirac’s Hidden Geometries

Posted on September 27, 2005 by PlatoHagel

I find this interesting because I like to visualizze as much as possible, and I sometimes think the basis of the leading ideas in science would had to follow a progression. Klein’s Ordering of Geometries was one such road that … Continue reading →

Big Ideas…..To String Theory

Posted on September 24, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Plato said: yes to Gauss and gaussian coordinates, not forgetting, Saccheri, Bolyai and Lobschevasky along this lineage of geometers On the Hypotheses which lie at the Bases of Geometry So A continuation from this, and reference to important papers for … Continue reading →

Under the heading of Klein`s Ordering of the Geometries : A theorem which is valid for a geometry in this sequence is automatically valid for the ones that follow. The theorems of projective geometry are automatically valid theorems of Euclidean … Continue reading →

Foundational Mathematics and Physics?

Posted on September 5, 2005 by PlatoHagel

I reproduce the post written below to Peter’s Quantum Gravity Commentary because that basis of determinations supported by John Baez, introduces a new line of thinking, that as a layman, forces me to think about mathematics and physics in their … Continue reading →

UV Fixed Point

Posted on September 2, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Clifford draws our attention to further talks here in his post and directs us to what Jacque Distler has to say. I must say this is a refreshing look with Jacques contribution to further the layman point of view. Such … Continue reading →

On the Hypothese at the foundations of Geometry

Posted on August 27, 2005 by PlatoHagel

I am trying to make my case on the greatest physics paper over at Cosmic Variance. One notices the slight misinterpretation I assigned, “geometical propensity to physics” that the case is more then just physi,s but the limmerack added envisioned, … Continue reading →

Observatories

Posted on August 22, 2005 by PlatoHagel

What is Sun-Earth Day? As I was reading Cliffords newest entry on Cosmic Variance site, his trip reminded me of the hike we took to see the Big Horn Medicine Wheel. Now what is interesting about this is I am … Continue reading →

Space and Time: Einstein and Beyond

Posted on August 21, 2005 by PlatoHagel

You know it’s amazing sometimes when the question in mind being put out there is not really answered right away, yet, it is strange that you ask and sure enough the right paper seems to find you. Plato said:Can this … Continue reading →
