Coleman-De Luccia instanton

Posted on March 22, 2006 by PlatoHagel

IN what way could some consistent measure be thought of, that such conditions while recognized in the false vacuum, and, with conditions of high energy considerations, be realized into useful information surrounding this move to the true vacuum? It would … Continue reading →

String Theory Displays Golden Ratio Tendency?

Posted on December 13, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Srinivas Ramanujan (1887-1920): Ramanujan was a mathematician so great his name transcends jealousies, the one superlatively great mathematician whom India has produced in the last hundred years. “His leaps of intuition confound mathematicians even today, seven decades after his death. … Continue reading →

Some Distant Bounding Surface

Posted on October 11, 2005 by PlatoHagel

I mean when I referred to fifth dimensional views you know that the computer screen includes not only it’s functionability in relation to science, but adds that bit of extended flavour to model construction we call imaging right? a) Compactifying … Continue reading →

Lee Smolin’s Case for Background Independence

Posted on July 27, 2005 by PlatoHagel

While we were privy to the debate between Susskind and Smolin in a previous post, the origins and definitions have been drawn from the deeper requirements of an ideology. Where do these begin, and we find the inner compulsion of … Continue reading →

The Unity of Mathematics

Posted on May 11, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Alain Connes Where a dictionary proceeds in a circular manner, defning a word by reference to another, the basic concepts of mathematics are infinitely closer to an indecomposable element”, a kind of elementary particle” of thought with a minimal amount … Continue reading →

Searching for Extra Dimensions

Posted on March 27, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Sometimes you have to venture further into the logic of strings to see where these applications are revealling themselves for consideration first and then work from the idea of compacted states and the relevance of dimensial attributes for consideration? Here … Continue reading →
