Dear Constantinos, Juri, and Peter,

Admittedly I did not pay attention to modalities like the final round. I rather intend learning from others and give my best knowledge in return. I have to apologize not just for misspelled or missing words but mainly for lacking ability to thoroughly read all possibly valuable essays and grasp new ideas. My judgments are certainly often inaccurate. Likewise I cannot condemn those who gave my essay the lowest possible rating. Too many of my positions contradict to commonly believed tenets.

What service can I offer to you?

Dear Yuri,

You are still soliciting my answer. I am sorry. When I mentioned Planck mass, I only intended to demonstrate why I tend to not trust in Planck length/time as smallest parts of scales. Your guesses look interesting.

Dear Peter,

Having read Lucian Ionescu's essay, I found several utterances close to my own heretical positions. For instance he wrote on p.3 "amorphous set of real numbers". When I wrote my essay I exceeded the limit, and then I decided to omit unnecessary and highly mistakable words or sentences until the limit was met.

No just Lucian's essay is difficult to read at least to me because of logical gaps, because of abundantly used "..." as to stress that an expressions is not meant literally, by use exclamation marks e.g.: "... The continuum is the cause of all "trouble" in mathematics!"

Sorry, I did not find any confirmation for your DFM in Lucian's essay.

Regards,

Eckard

    I posted some links on Jason's string showing coloured cross sections through an 'apparent' superluminal quasar gas jet (HH34 as photo in my essay)

    The core 'blue' areas are doing 'c' locally wrt the bit they're in, which is doing 'c' wrt the bit IT'S in, etc. etc.

    There are stacks of good papers, here is just one, See Fig 5? etc for a jet with a 7c core. (wrt Hubble).

    Just because we're looking from Hubbles frame DOES NOT make us special. There may be 1,000 Hubbles around the universe doing all sorts of seed wrt the jet!!

    Only measurement the from same inertial frame as the subject motion is valid, and we'll find the answer is max 'c'.

    It's a problem of self centric thinking. We must stop thinking we're so special! See my last essay Reference.

      Dear Eckard

      i would like introduce to you my article

      What Wolfgang Pauli Did Mean?

      Yuri,

      Could you please reveal your argument? You should be sure that a hint to Fourier-transform is inappropriate. I was teaching this matter for decades.

      I found out that on condition of restriction to measured data, there is no reason to include negative elapsed time. Hence cosine transform is sufficient. MP3 coding benefits from this fact.

      What about Kronecker, I looked into the link you gave and got aware that Dedekind was missing in the list of related mathematicians they gave. Dedekind's 1887 book "Was sind und was sollen die Zahlen?" can be seen an antithesis to Kronecker's famous utterance.

      Kronecker was the main barrier against Cantor's transfinite paradise until his health broke down under massive personal attacks by Cantor. I consider him doomed to fail because he had the same intention as had Dedekind and Cantor: to rigorously construct an algebra of continuum. Why did Kronecker's colleague Weierstrass protect Cantor? There is little known. Weierstrass did not publish scientific papers, there are only scripts of his lessons written by his pupils. In contrast to the rich Jew Kronecker, Weierstrass held very popular lessons and had numerous pupils. Perhaps, Weierstrass was not aware of what was behind the stunning monster function that made him respected: mutually contradicting aspects of infinity.

      Nobody should get me wrong. I am not denying that real numbers are a reasonable extension of the rational ones. I just would like to clarify that they do not make the rational numbers complete. They are something else. Even equivalent real numbers are something fictitious, something quite different from their rational correlates. There is no rigorous bridge between discrete and continuous unless one deceives themselves by means of brutal arbitrary redefinition of these notions.

      Donatello Dolce suggested a sweet but poisoned alternative donation: "a third possible description incorporates aspects of both." I intend taking issue.

      Eckard

      Dear Yuri,

      While papers in viXra are not endorsed, I do not doubt that Pauli made the utterance: "Zweiteilung und Symmetrievemindeung, das ist des Pudels Kern. Zweiteilung ist ein sehr altes Attribut des Teufels" and the answers you got by known experts are authentic. Your application on spin might be correct. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with this matter.

      Anyway, my effort to clarify what is in mathematics wrong behind Buridan's donkey seems to have far reaching consequences.

        Yes i mean cosine transform is sufficient.

        But cosine transform follow from Fourier transform...

        Dear Peter,

        When I criticized your style, my intention was to help you. Even if the question of velocity in excess of c is a bit off topic, I highly appreciate you pointing to these unexpected experimental results.

        Your last reference is Henrich J. Heine S. Norenzaya A. The weirdest people in the world? 2010. B&B Sciences, vol 33 p61. New Scientist vol 208 No 2976 Nov 2010 p42-45. Because I do not have the New Scientist at hand, could you please reveal whom they refer to?

        I see self centric thinking overcome by Galileo Galilei's relativity but resurrected by Poincaré/Einstein's desynchronization. I guess, Tom Van Flandern was the first one to speak of desynchronization. Admittedly i did not yet read the book by Petr Beckmann. Van Flandern gave an explanation. Did you deal with it?

        I apologize for taking issue in a matter that is outside my competence. I was guided to it because I could not understand the origin of complex Minkowski metric, and I wonder how many paradoxes belong to SR: twin, grandfather, Ehrenfest, Adromeda, .... Maybe I am a bit dense or too old. Isn't it already strange that I am shrinking because something moves rapidly relative to me, no matter whether it is small or large.

        You are not adequately appreciated the utterance of Eddington.

        This is just what you say...about negative or imaginative numbers,about up and down,about left and right etc. There are all relative.

        "... cosine transform follow from Fourier transform..."

        I disagree. I see CT not the daughter but rather the sister of FT. Even Cantor already understood what already Albert von Sachsen (1316-1390) was aware of: There are not less positive numbers as compared with the sum of all positive and negative numbers. Cantor attributed the same cardinality to them. R can be mapped onto R and vice versa.

        And even the great Heisenberg could not decode Pauli's utterance.

        Great expert of Pauli's scientific heritage Hans Primas wrote to me

        Dear Yuri Danoyan,

        The original German quotation is:

        "Zweiteilung und Symmetrievemindeung, das ist des Pudels Kern. Zweiteilung ist ein sehr altes Attribut des Teufels. (Das Wort Zweifel soll urspünglichch Zweiteilung bedeutet haben)."

        It is in a letter by Pauli to Heisenberg, who quote it (without given the date of the letter) in:

        W. Heisenberg, Wolfgang Paulis philosophische Auffassungen, Die Naturwissenschaften, vol. 46 (1959), pp.661-663.

        It is again quoted in W. Heisenberg, Der Teil und das Ganze , Piper Verlag , Muenchen (1969), p.317. In the English translation of this book (Physics and Beyond, Harper and Row, New York (1974), p.234) it is translated as:

        "Division and reduction of symmetry, this then is the kernel of the

        brute! The former is an ancient attribute of the devil."

        It is notoriously difficult to translate Pauli's striking and succinct German in another language. Here Pauli refers to Goethe's Faust, part 1, second scene "Faust's study":

        "Das war also des Pudels Kern ... "

        In German, this phrase has become proverbial, known to everyone (even if to people who do not know the Faustian context), essentially in the sense "that is the crux of the matter".

        The phrase you quote "WHERE ACTUALLY THE DOG LIES EXACTLY BURIED !" seems to me not to be a literal translation of a remark by Pauli, but a translation of the German saying: "da liegt der Hund begraben". This saying is probably more then 400 years old, and the authoritative "Deutsches Woerterbuch" by Grimm leave the question of the origin of this saying open. Probably "Hund" does not refer to "dog", but to the Middle High German "hunte" (meaning "centum", "hundred coins"), or more generally "booty" or "treasure". Nevertheless, the present-day meaning is clear to every German-speaking child. It means roughly: "that is the crux of the matter".

        I hope that these explanations are a bit helpful. Wit my best regards

        Hans Primas

        Dear Dr.Primas

        I OFTEN MEET SOME ENIGMATIC AND MISTERIOUS PHRASE OF WOLFGANG PAULI

        ''DIVISION (INTO TWO) AND REDUCTION OF SYMMETRY..WHERE ACTUALLY THE DOG LIES EXACTLY BURIED !"

        I READ THIS PHRASE IN RUSSIAN ,BUT NOT READ IN GERMAN.ARE YOU FAMILIAR WITH AUTHENTIK TEXT?

        WHAT MEAN PAULI TO YOUR OPINION?

        The paper is here; (or copy/paste and Google it) http://northwestern.academia.edu/WillBennis/Papers/154149/Weirdness_is_in_the_eye_of_the_beholder_Commentary_on_Henrich_Heine_and_Norenzayan

        WEIRD is simply Western Educated Industrialised Rich and Democratic, who are top of the list for limited self centric thinking. This turns out to be the philosophical cause of lack of understanding of nature. I covered it in my string.. but for you dear Eckard;

        If two people are asked; "Where is the brown cow" We would likely say something like; "Around 300m away over there to my right, walking away."

        A far easterner or African would more likely say; "Under the tall brown tree walking south to the river".

        This may not seem much but it can be critical to all science, even since Galileo, as we're now faced with exactly the same challenge, and have failed.

        If flying in our space ship somewhere beyond the moon watching the flash of light crossing (on it's vector relative to us)the surface of Earth we say "Ah! Earth must shrink for a moment from our viewpoint as we're not allowed to see it moving at more than 'c'!!" Lorentz gave us the tool.

        But what ARE we thinking!? Do we really think we're that important? Does the flash of light care about us, does it REALLY go faster than c if we don't use the LT? Does the light from the flash travel to us faster than c, of course not, so what's the LT for? What job does it do?

        And if we were doing 0.5c the other way, would that slow the light down on earth? or slow down the light travelling to us through the ionosphere? Of course not, it always does c/n locally.

        So would Earth appear to shrink differently for all of infinitely many inertial frames? why on earth (lol) would it need to?

        And if we did 0.7c and saw a ship approaching at 0.7c? Light could not possibly get past our ship windows, or visors, plasma fine structure without being Doppler shifted to the blue and slowed to our local 'c'. Exactly as QED, atomic scattering theory etc. all says it is! (Electrons absorb photons, and emit them AT 'C')

        Only our poor understanding and self centric thinking allowed Lorentz to ignore the correct Fresnel/Stokes/Plank solution when Stokes died and hijack Fresnel's formula to invent the LT.

        I seem to have missed you lunar question, but NASA's experiments proved my point, the Earth has an Earth centric frame, and solar system a Sun centric frame, ending with the Pioneer/Voyager anomaly plasma shock encounter. Links here. Let me know if it was another question. You question my facts, which is pointless and makes you miss the very important science! The implications are vast, solving all paradoxes and most anomalies.

          Dear Peter,

          I referred to the NASA lunar laser experiment you mentioned. My question was: Did you deal with Tom Van Flandern's LR (Lorentz relativity)? He criticized SR and argued that all putative confirmation of SR can be explained with LR. He also argued in favor of velocities of bodies in excess of c. I did not grasp why did he need Lorentz, and why do you reject Lorentz but not SR?

          You know, I consider myself a bloody layman in this field. I merely found out that Einstein's 1905 paper "Zur Elektrodynamik bewegter Koerper" omitted any reference to its obvious source, and perhaps therefore it was not logically consistent to me.

          Eckard

          My reply to "... cosine transform follow from Fourier transform..." was not shown. Why? I consider my disagreement essential because it might be considered wrong.

          Well, everybody knows that the Fourier transform (FT) is the sum of its real part cosine transform (CT) and its imaginary part sine transform (ST): FT = CT +i ST.

          Let me also address "... Eddington. This is just what you say...about negative or imaginative numbers,about up and down,about left and right etc. There are all relative."

          Well, there is definitely no possibility to decide where is left. Cartesian coordinates are always arbitrary. What about up and down, it depends. Definition of what is upward in space is likewise arbitrary. However, downsizing is naturally limited to zero. A negative distance is unreal. The same is true for negative radius, and negative measured time, negative absolute temperature, etc. While it is often reasonable to arbitrary shift the natural reference point zero in order to benefit from use of negative and imaginary numbers, such shift is redundant.

          Back to FT and CT: With FT, the kernel exp(ix) = cos x + i sin x is assumed, the restriction to cos x by omission of the imaginary part suggests that CT is a special case of FT. For CT, 2 cos x = exp(ix) + exp(-ix) can likewise be restricted by omission of exp(-ix) to a complex, anticlockwise rotating phasor. In so far the CT is not the daughter but rather the sister of FT.

          Correspondingly, the positive real numbers are often considered just a special case of all real numbers. However, at least historically and logically, the latter arose from natural numbers, i.e. positive integers. Kronecker was not quite wrong.

          These simple and very basic facts seem indisputable to me. I seriously wonder why even contestants felt entitled to lecture me by hints to FT. Is the essence of what makes analog different from continuous, is the essence of my essay not understandable?

          Already Leibniz mentioned that the notions infinity and continuity are like labyrinths. I would rather compare them with a trap which was evaded by Galileo Galilei, Baruch de Spinoza and others who understood that being infinite is a quality that cannot be numerically quantified, and it does not fit into the framework of algebra: Infinity plus infinity is just still infinity, at least if we do not allow a brutal and useless mutilation of the basic notions.

          Dear Eckard

          Concerning of Pauli's quote i would like put forward following consideration. Despite the fact that Pauli wrote this in the fifties, he intuitively guessing future trends.

          "Division and reduction of symmetry", is just confirmation your idea to cut the axes from - infinity to infinity and get rid negative numbers along with imaginary numbers.

          Regards,

          Yuri

          Dear Yuri,

          Yes, I already understood this interpretation. Accordingly, a more precise translation could be "division in two halves and getting rid of symmetry".

          Symmetry is redundant.

          In order to avoid getting mistaken, I would like to clarify that the restriction to past events only concerns reality. Models are extending symmetrically including past and future. The laws are time-symmetrical, the embedding into influences is one-sided. While I did not yet fully understand your idea of 3:1. There are actually three time domains: traces of past events in reality, calculated past and calculated future at the abstracted and extrapolated level of models. So far, physics neglects the unilateral timescale of reality because mathematics misleadingly suggests that R and C are more general domains as compared with R. This is mathematically correct but incorrect if applied on reality. Abstraction creates additional degrees of freedom that do not have correlates in reality: apparent symmetries.
