Is Space and Time Discrete According to Eugene Savov's Theory of Interaction?

In summary: The nature of space and time is discrete (quantum) as shown by Eugene Savov's theory of interaction [1] in which Zeno's paradoxes are considered. After assuming discrete space and time, the paradoxes are trivially solved. I cannot understand what's that fuss about them. The point of these paradoxes is that the infinite divisibility is impossible if motion is to exist.

The nature of space and time is discrete (quantum) as shown by Eugene Savov’s theory of interaction [1] in which Zeno’s paradoxes are considered. After assuming discrete space and time, the paradoxes are trivially solved. I cannot understand what’s that fuss about them. The point of these paradoxes is that the infinite divisibility is impossible if motion is to exist. The cure is to make everything finite (quantum), not arbitrary large or small, because it is self-defined.

Eugene Savov shows that matter moves 3D-spirally faster inward, attracts itself and repels from itself, thus creating the finite and hence discrete sources of reality [1]. They contract and expand, oscillate at scales of their own and synchronize to unfold to similar ones [1]. The mysterious craving of nature for synchronization [2] can be accounted in this way. The found all-building self-reproducing and self-similar discrete (quantum) 3D-spiral swirls of matter depending on their size are seen as galaxies, stars, planets, atoms, electrons, light, space, time and everything else. The perception continuity is created, according to Eugene Savov, from finite objects that appear fast enough in one’s brain like movie frames. We generate Zeno’s paradoxes from the perception of continuity by rendering it in mathematical terms like infinitely divisible space intervals.

You lost me on the first sentence.
Are you meaning to say that space
and time are quantized?

There is a specific forum for crackpottery. That is, if you're finished spamming sciforums with it.

I don't know if Eugene Savov realized this but Newton's calculus solved Zeno's paradox a long time ago.

There are serious problems with the idea that space and time are quantized. Quantized values are almost always scale invariant, and length and time are both scale quantities. Action, angular momentum, electric charge and velocity parameter are such quantities.

This is an idea which has been tried many times by many people and found wanting.

On scale invariance

Tyger,
The point of this strange theory of interaction is that the proposed structure of matter is self-similar, fractal and therefore scale invariant. The assumption is that the qualities like space and time are created in the process of observation.

The scale of quantization is what makes you see things as continuous and discrete. After seeing continuous space and time background, you may introduce continuous mathematical spaces and then find paradoxes in them due to their departure from the self-consistent (finite and discrete) structure of reality.

Scale invariance is one of the most important broken symmetries in Nature, and any competent theory would have to account for that fact.

In fact Eugene Savov's theory of interaction introduces universal asymmetry because everything becomes denser toward its source. The self-definiteness and hence self-similarity of the source reveals a new picture of the universe.
 

1. What does it mean for space and time to be discrete?

Discrete space and time means that they are made up of individual, distinct units or elements. This is in contrast to continuous space and time, where there are no defined boundaries or divisions.

2. How do we know that space and time are discrete?

There is evidence from both theoretical models and experimental observations that support the idea of discrete space and time. For example, some theories of quantum gravity predict a discrete structure of space-time at a very small scale, and experiments measuring the energy levels of atoms show that they are quantized, or discrete.

3. What are the implications of discrete space and time?

If space and time are discrete, it could have significant implications for our understanding of the universe and the laws of physics. It could potentially help resolve some long-standing issues in physics, such as the unification of general relativity and quantum mechanics.

4. Is there a limit to how small space and time can be divided?

The concept of discrete space and time does not necessarily imply a limit to how small they can be divided. It is possible that there is a smallest unit of space and time, but this is still an area of active research and debate in physics.

5. How does the idea of discrete space and time relate to the concept of the universe being a simulation?

There is no definitive answer to this question, as the idea of the universe being a simulation is still a speculative concept. Some proponents of the simulation hypothesis suggest that the discrete nature of space and time could be evidence that we are living in a simulated reality. However, this is not a widely accepted idea in the scientific community.
