Graduate Question regarding the universes origin.
Hi marcus! I apologize if I came off as antagonistic and/or offensive and I agree that there are quite a few different ideas concerning cosmological origins. This question though really does keep me up at night and its one I desperately wish to have an answer to. I just want existence to be...- Silvers931

Graduate Question regarding the universes origin.
Is an eternal and dynamic universe the only sensible universe? I mean clearly creation ex nihilo is absurd, so either reality is inherently absurd or its eternal, mechanical, and logical with no clear "beginning".- Silvers931

Graduate Questions about the universe I resolving.
I originally posted a thread regarding de-sitter spaces, Poincare recurrence theorem, and statistics. My main question I want to ask is whether there is a nonzero probability that a life form identical to me will "reemerge" at a later date far in the future. Since our consciousness is a...- Silvers931

Graduate Can the universe be both infinite AND expanding
I was researching the inflationary model of the universe and came across the idea that the universe may be both infinite and expanding; and that there isn't a contradiction. As time goes by, the amount of matter in any given area will become less dense due to the metric expansion of space...- Silvers931

Undergrad What are some open problems that would make a good honors thesis.
Well, original research, like a topic other mathematicians haven't got around to yet.- Silvers931

Undergrad What are some open problems that would make a good honors thesis.
I'm interested in topology/differential geometry and before I eventually graduate I am looking to complete an independent study in the subject. What are some open problems that would be a good fit for an undergrad like me?- Silvers931

Interested in my future as a mathematician
I am currently working on my B.S. in Applied Mathematics at AMU; and then plan on doing a M.S. in Computational Mathematics at WKU. How is the job market for Mathematicians and can I get a job in the mathematical modeling sector with just a M.S. or do I need to pursue a PH.D?- Silvers931

Graduate Question regarding the universes origin
So, and hopefully I'm not totally misunderstanding what is being said. A solution to Einsteins GR equations yields of multitude of possible world lines that are collapsed to one world line because of the presence of radiation. This singular worldline is the "official time" and "official...- Silvers931

Graduate Question regarding the universes origin
Questions: 1. What is meant by "preferred" time coordinate? 2. How does radiation break ds symmetry? "If standard fields, e.g. radiation, are introduced in a dS space, the time symmetry will be broken" 3. Forgive me for my ignorance on this subject, I'm an applied math student, but how...- Silvers931

Graduate Question regarding the universes origin
"In the far future, huge patches of our universe, with radii larger than the Hubble scale, will be completely empty. They will be pure dS spaces. If the model sug- gested in this work is correct, these empty spaces will give birth to new universe through the process of spon- taneous symmetry...- Silvers931

Graduate Question regarding the universes origin
According to the Poincare recurrence theorem - certain systems will, after a sufficiently long but finite time, return to a state very close to the initial state. and according to wikipedia - a quantum fluctuation or vacuum fluctuation is the temporary change in the amount of energy in a...- Silvers931
