CFT and the Tomato Soup Can

Posted on September 15, 2005 by PlatoHagel

As always, the layman trying to develope the mathematical views?:) Greg Kuperberg on Sep 15th, 2005 at 12:11 pm Conformal maps of the Earth are a great introduction to complex analysis. If you identify the Earth with the Riemann sphere, … Continue reading →

Atlas and Proton-proton Collisions

Posted on September 14, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Depth of Perception I am responding to the link here on Cosmic Variance and the related article, Cosmic Violence. I do not want to tie up their space, so my “further response” is being given here. I speak of Glast … Continue reading →

Types of Blackholes

Posted on September 12, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Now the statement below is important from one perspective that is not to my mind explained very good. I mean, taken from the public views, how is it such a thing like the blackhole could exist, and what scientific validations … Continue reading →

Quantum Gravity: The Blackhole

Posted on September 7, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Drawing Plane and Coordinate Systems More information is given here in Wiki. There is no “distance” separating cosmological events, from the cubic centimeter in the corner of the room? I have to tell you why I see this, and what … 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 →

Bridging the chasm between mathematics and human culture

Posted on August 7, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Thanks to Peter Woit for these kinds of links. As a lay person, to see this idea exemplified by such gatherings, closes the great divide. It is wonderful in a way, when one can see where these mathematics are really … Continue reading →

The Black Hole Final State

Posted on July 24, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Mathematics is not the rigid and rigidity-producing schema that the layman thinks it is; rather, in it we find ourselves at that meeting point of constraint and freedom that is the very essence of human nature. – Hermann Weyl It … Continue reading →

Anomalistic Features of Gold Fish and Ant World?

Posted on July 3, 2005 by PlatoHagel

I was reading Mark Trodden’s blog called, “Orange Quark” for reading, and he pointed out the following article. In Praise of Hard Questions, by Tom Siegfried Geometric basis underlying science? I see this tendency of many to the Halls of … Continue reading →

Michael Faraday

Posted on June 13, 2005 by PlatoHagel

Michael Faraday (September 22, 1791 – August 25, 1867) was a British scientist (a physicist and chemist) who contributed significantly to the fields of electromagnetism and electrochemistry. While it is always nice to see history in it’s developemental stages, it … Continue reading →
