That is heartening. The problem does lie in finding the physical theories, and also one or rather anyone learning or trying to come up with their own theory must be familiar with a large array of mathematical tools. While I do know that things like population are modeled using continuous...

Is my understanding correct that Regge calculus is discretizing space from a GR perspective? Can it also be applied from a first principles point of view where GR hasn't been integrated yet? If, in some universe, discrete space existed, then what is the correct way to deal with continuous...

Ok. It is good to know that continuity can be ignored for the sake of calculus, provided the delta we are talking about is really small, say on the Planck length scale. If there are mathematicians in the community looking at this, would someone please care to comment on this issue as well...

Hello I seem to have come under the impression that discrete space, or the breakdown of physics at the so called quantum foam level, is a result of the math used to model physical reality. Am I incorrect in assuming this, or is there validity in the claim that calculus, requiring limits at...

Complexity is best understood as phenomena that emerges from the interaction of simpler building blocks. Just as societies display complex social behavior based upon smaller social units in which people group themselves, the human body is capable of experiencing thoughts and feelings as an...

Yes, the one reality could be that there are an infinite number of universes. Its just that it is too hard to get my head around it. To quote from Wikipedia: The many-worlds interpretation is an interpretation of quantum mechanics that asserts the objective reality of the universal...

Hi Peter, How can this be a choice of words? There either are alternate realities or there are not. But every quantum event generating a reality of it's own is a little bit too much to fathom. Is this interpretation in line with the Many Worlds Interpretation? Thanks, Bhanu

Hi Prashant, Could you please guide me to some material that explains better what you are talking about here? Thanks, Bhanu

Hi phinds, I am not a physicist by profession. But I do have an active interest in topics within this domain. Could you please point me to some resources where I can learn where Schrödinger made the POINT that it's silly to think of the cat as being both alive and dead? Thanks, Bhanu

Hi, In the Schrödinger's Cat thought experiment, we say that the cat is in a superposition of states of being either dead or alive. But isn't that opinion biased from being outside of the system? From the cat's point of view, it is either dead or alive but never both. The same argument can be...
