Are you saying that an interval of numbers actually has dimension? Isn't an interval of numbers just an abstract concept that does not exist in...
I've got a theory. Space is made of multi-dimensional units of a very very small size. Matter is just an energy wave flowing through these units,...
It's not a problem, really. It just means you have to forget about numbers. The fact is, matter in the universe is not a number system, but a...
Enmos, I now refute my own proof that 0+0=0. The reason is that your questions have lead me to realize that it is wrong to call numbers "points"....
Yes, I see. Math is not real. But, it may help us understand the motion of matter, as we can equate those symbols we create in math with real...
Unfortunately, I have no idea what you're saying. You are going to have to explain it step by step.
Now, this raises an interesting point. Distinct real numbers have no dimension. But, they also have relative position from other numbers. For...
Help! Has anyone here (except D.H.) actually studied hyperreal numbers?:shrug:
BenTheMan, definitely. His tyrannical reign over the physics/math forum would make Caligula blush.
True. But I thought you were suggesting an imaginary number line had dimension. Sure, a ruler has dimension because it's made from a piece of wood....
How can a line, even an abstract line, comprised of an infinite number of points with no dimension have dimension itself?
If so, then does the following make any sense in hyperreal numbers: an infinitely small number added to itself an infinite number of times cancels...
No, I am an admirer of Bannan. How can a point with no dimension separate a piece of line? A cake slicer with no width cannot cut a piece of cake.
Sure, if you want to look at relative size as position, go right ahead. However, isn't 1 half the size of 2? Now, if we are talking about an...
If you haven't studied hyperreal numbers, then how do you know you need to learn the insides and out of real numbers first? I don't get the feeling...
Have you studied hyperreal numbers?
I think Mr. Bannan now realizes that his question belongs in the realm of hyperreal numbers. So, of course, the posters here who only know something...
Oh, I've read it and found that what he is really asking belongs in the realm of hyperreal numbers - not standard numbers. Do you know anything...
While eating a french fried potato, I slipped on a banana peel on uneven pavement and before I could assess the situation and be revived to my...
I would imagine that the rush of adrenaline prior to the decapitation would make those seconds of life seem more like minutes.
