Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.Once again, thank you for your help, your guidance and your instruction, Peter. I really appreciate the time and effort you've put in... -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.Yes, that's not in dispute here, Peter. Thanks to your guidance I now see what I did. The issue is how you corrected me. Technically... -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.Now that you've clarified things I can what you mean. But your statement, ' Nobody in the literature actually uses them' was... -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.With all due respect Peter, I did not make the term semiclassical up. And I used the expression "purely classical" to distinguish... -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.Apologies for the delay in getting back to you, Peter. But after much thought I think I've whittled my questions down to just... -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.Well, I can see some reasons, Peter. Because you've mentioned the equation of state three times now, along with explanations of the... -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.Thank you for clarifying this, Peter. Since the BGV is within the remit of this section I'll return here very soon with my questions... -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.Thank you, Peter. I think it's worth drawing a line under the issue of the incompatibility of singularity theorem with inflation at... -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.Thank you Peter. However, I'm floundering a bit here. You could try and explain the symbols and terms if you wanted, but I think I'm... -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.Hmm... I've only just noticed this, from the introduction of the paper I cited. Introduction. The biggest question in science is the... -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.Back again, feeling better and thank you for your patience Peter. Returning to your last message, what I seem to see is that the... -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.With apologies Peter, I'm not feeling very well right now and will get back to you asap. Cerenkov. -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.Thank you. Thank you. Now this needs unpacking. If the type 1a finding holds, then our universe doesn't satisfy the condition of... -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.Thank you. Thank you. Thank you again. I suspected this was the case. But thank you for confirming it. Cerenkov. -
Cerenkov replied to the thread Graduate Assumptions of Hawking-Penrose 1970 Singularity Theorem.Thank you for this, Peter. In my defence I'm only using Hawking's book as a starting point for my line of questions. Cerenkov.
