Exploring Unconventional Addition: Can Mathematics Embrace New Foundations?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The forum discussion centers on the exploration of unconventional mathematical foundations, particularly a new definition of addition proposed by a user. The user introduces a series of operations and axioms involving gaps and combined numbers, suggesting a framework that deviates from traditional arithmetic. However, the responses indicate significant confusion and skepticism regarding the practicality and clarity of these concepts, with many participants asserting that the ideas lack coherence and do not align with established mathematical principles.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of basic arithmetic operations and their properties.
  • Familiarity with mathematical axioms and theorems.
  • Knowledge of group theory concepts.
  • Ability to interpret mathematical notation and definitions.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the principles of group theory and its applications in mathematics.
  • Study the standard definitions and properties of addition in mathematics.
  • Explore the concept of axiomatic systems in mathematics.
  • Investigate the role of gaps and continuity in mathematical analysis.
USEFUL FOR

Mathematicians, students of advanced mathematics, and anyone interested in theoretical frameworks and the foundations of mathematical operations.

Can mathematics rest on new foundations? See the attachment.

a little explanation about the form of addition

adding or joining , as performed

R a+b=c same as now, combined numbers 222+33=2253, when they are the same along (gap) they are joined, here 2 and 3, we get 5

R2
here there is an operation function (the same applies to other Rn) , 1(R2) 3+14=(3,42) , 2(R,R2) 3+24={7 ,(3,42)} , 3(R-R2) 3+34= (7, 42)},4(R,R2,R-R2) , 3+4 4={7,(3,42) , (7.42)}
(2,32)+(3.32)=(5 .62)

R3 5(R,R2 , R3) , 3+54={7 , (3 ,42 ), (3 , 0 , 43)} , 6(R-R2, R3) , 3+64={( 7 , 42) , ( 3 , 0 , 43} , 7(R, R2-R3) , ...so on

Welcome to PF!

What are you trying to do?

Is this for a class on group theory?

I don't see a practical application of your new definition of addition.

Can? Why not. Will? Definitely not.

I have no idea what you are talking about.

you have two points, how would you describe them with numbers
1. there is no line between the points
2. there is a line between the points
3. there is a line between the points, parts of the line are erased
practical application of my mathematics

axion
there is length 0-1 there is gap 0 - 1
ten times smaller than 0 - 0.1 ( 0-0. 1 )
a hundred times smaller than 0- 0.01 ( 0- 0.00 1 )
...

With me, rights are plans, evidence not axion.

there are gap and combined numbers and linear complex

This is just the beginning, there is much more.

This simply does not make any sense and contains nothing that couldn't be dealt with by ordinary math.

I don't hope so.

It’s hard to follow what you are doing. Have you gotten feedback from math people you know in person?
 
You're going to have to be a lot more clear about what you are doing / trying to do since what you have so far sounds like utter nonsense in practical terms.
 
Thread is done. @biljanica -- PF is not the place for you to try to develop your new ideas.

I did, and it makes no sense at all.
Right at the start you have a couple axioms for "basics length" and "basics gaps." The figures next to them make no sense.
Right after the axioms you have a theorem whose "proof" also makes no sense.
Later, in the section titled "set of points" you have this: ##B_d = \{0\infty1\infty2\infty3\infty4\infty5.. \}## with your own definition of the symbol ##\infty##, which is completely at odds with the usual definition of this symbol. Your definition appears to define the symbol ##\infty## as all of the numbers between 0 and 1.

Nothing I've seen in your paper makes any sense to me.
