Graduate Is the QT "no-cloning theorem" suitable as "Chronological Protection"?
Either this, or the interpretation - in this case "Many Worlds"- requires the (not observed) violation of the "no cloning" theorem. Since we do not observe weird things as other versions of ourselves returning back in time to our universe, the "no cloning theorem" and the "many worlds...- Tommolo

Graduate Is the QT "no-cloning theorem" suitable as "Chronological Protection"?
Just a question: how would the wavefunction "collapse" in a time-reversed universe? Let's take Alice. If she's taking a backward time travel to -say- 2021 and finds herself in 2021, wouldn't that be a (prohibited) quantum cloning of an already measured quantum state? Say, the |Alice 2021⟩ ket is...- Tommolo

Online advanced physics and cosmology courses
Yes, any advice about online classes would be much appreciated! :) I don't want a thing "for journalist", I want to see if there is an "asymptotically universitary online course", so to speak! :)- Tommolo

Online advanced physics and cosmology courses
Yes, that's the right point! I mean...I wasn't looking exactly for a group of crackpots, just a group where I can freely discuss about philosophy of science and interpretation of the results. Hopefully in this world there are degrees and nuances, and luckily I can read some technical work, and...- Tommolo

Online advanced physics and cosmology courses
Yes, but I would like to read a technical article and to understand it so to convey this information (or what's most relevant in it) to a general, non technical public. I saw that for instance there are courses for scientists in order to acquire a proper divulgative approach (what in Europe is...- Tommolo

Online advanced physics and cosmology courses
Hi! I'm new here! Let me introduce myself! I am Thomas and I have always been interested in science, cosmology and physics. Anyway, I have an equally strong passion for arts and humanities, and after all I decided to form myself as a journalist, which is my daily job. After years and years, I...- Tommolo

Graduate A question about tensor calculus in Von Neumann algebra (W*)
So, the equation should be something like this (maybe): R(-𝜏)μν+R𝜏μν=0 where μ,ν can have a value between 1 and 3 and are non negative and integers, that is, with 6 degrees of freedom (up, down; back and forth; left and right), while 𝜏 has a value of 1/2 (that is, just one degree of freedom...- Tommolo

Graduate A question about tensor calculus in Von Neumann algebra (W*)
Here the Shannon-Von Neumann entropy graphics for time as half negative dimensions. If you consider it being described by a Hilbert matrix, maybe (and just maybe) you could explain from this the Born rule: -1/2 is the power of each probability of the wavefunction to be in a given state...- Tommolo

Graduate A question about tensor calculus in Von Neumann algebra (W*)
A way to interpret how "Minkowski" metric can be seen is through the simmetries of a de Sitter invariant special relativity theory (see file attached). The infinitesimal angle of the rotations in de Sitter invariant special relativity (dS-ISR) maybe could be seen as a negative fractal degree of...- Tommolo

Graduate A question about tensor calculus in Von Neumann algebra (W*)
I read this interesting article by Alain Connes, a french mathematics and phyisicist who is doing some research about fractal dimensionality. Classification of Injective Factors Cases II1, II∞, IIIλ, λ ≠ 1 He classified in this 1976 paper the Von Neumann algebras M in various subcathegories...- Tommolo

Graduate A question about tensor calculus in Von Neumann algebra (W*)
Yes, my thought experiments comes across just noting about how Green and Schwarz tried in 1984 to solve the hexagon scattering problem for string theory just adding integer degress of freedom so to achieve a reduction of the infinities coming out. In particularly, the theory seemed flawed for...- Tommolo

Graduate A question about tensor calculus in Von Neumann algebra (W*)
Another fundamental piece of the puzzle is the notion of a "spectra", a negative dimension, and how to interpret it. It can be really interesting to dig into this notion thanks to this wonderful book by H.R. Margolis, "Spectra and the Steenrod algebra" Margolis "Spectra and the Steenrod...- Tommolo

That is to be found on Mandelbrot's paper, which I add hereby. Negative fractal dimension by Benoit Mandelbrot Thanks for moving to a more coherent section of the forum (if there's any ahah) I don't want to bother, I know that somewhere I got it wrong, I'm here just to ask you exactly where...- Tommolo
