Hodge Conjecture

Posted on December 21, 2004 by PlatoHagel

Interplay between geometry and topology. One of the things that I am having difficulty with is if I understood the idea of a cosmic string. The understanding would have to imply that the higher dimensions would reveal themselves within the … Continue reading →

Curvature Parameters

Posted on December 14, 2004 by PlatoHagel

How does get this intuitive feeling embedded within thinking if it has not grokked the significance on a cosmological scale? When one first begins to comprehend the intuitive possibilities the universe can move through, I was was struck, by the … Continue reading →

Lagrange Points

Posted on December 13, 2004 by PlatoHagel

How would clumping been drived from anything if such a supersymmetrical reality did not exist at some point? Without someview that would be consistent through out the cosmo, how would such points be of value, if we could not see … Continue reading →

THE ANTHROPIC PRINCIPLE

Posted on December 9, 2004 by PlatoHagel

The String Theory Landscape, by Raphael Bousso and Joseph Polchinski Given the success of replacing the gravitational force with the dynamics of space and time, why not seek a geometric explanation for the other forces of nature and even for … Continue reading →

Quantum Geometry

Posted on December 9, 2004 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 I … Continue reading →

Quantum Mechanical Discription of the Spacetime Fabric

Posted on December 8, 2004 by PlatoHagel

Richard Feynman developed the path integral formulation of quantum mechanics in 1948 (some preliminaries were worked out earlier, in the course of his doctoral thesis work with John Archibald Wheeler) as a description of quantum theory corresponding to the action … Continue reading →

Quantum Harmonic Oscillators

Posted on December 5, 2004 by PlatoHagel

If the basis of this thinking has not emerged out of GR then what value could we have assigned zero point vibration? If the scalable features of GR could not have followed some geometrical thinking, then the world that we … Continue reading →

Quantum Microstates: Gas Molecules in the Presence of a Gravitational Field

Posted on December 4, 2004 by PlatoHagel

Andy Strominger: This was a field theory that lived on a circle, which means it has one spatial dimension and one time dimension. We derived the fact that the quantum states of the black hole could be represented as the … Continue reading →

Inverse Fourth Power Law

Posted on December 3, 2004 by PlatoHagel

By moving our perceptions to fifth dimenisonal views of Kaluza and KLein, I looked at methods that would help me explain that strange mathematical world that I had been lead too geometrically. If such a bulk existed, then how would … Continue reading →

Mapping Quark Confinement and The Energy

Posted on December 2, 2004 by PlatoHagel

As I moved through the thinking of those extra dimensions it became apparent to me that the conceptualization of that distance scale was a strange world indeed. How, if we had accept the move to non-euclidean views could we not … Continue reading →
