Newton's third law. You push and it pushes back. But who pushes first?

It's not enough just to watch. The models of weather are not models of climate. If the model predicts a 3 degree increase in temperature that temperat...

The "point" is that constructing a continuum out of points seems like a pseudoscience to me. The fact that the line, plane or volume have the same car...

If there is no first moment then that doesn't imply there is no second. Each second moment needs a predecessor. Which can be a first moment. But as a ...

What if I asked the question, as a new thread, if the continuum can be broken in parts? It's maybe a math question. Maybe not. It will not alter the e...

That's exactly what I not do. I question it. That's all. I have been given no satisfactory answer though. Jgill came close. But the bijection he presc...

That's exactly what I have done. And didn't agree with. But it's clear now. Thanks to my opponent. I don't agree with him though.
December 27, 2021 at 11:39
Yes. I get that. Still... something is nagging. If I map all naturals on (there you go...) what do I leave out? seems to contain more numbers than : 0...

The bijection between R and RxR is not continuous.

Now that feeling comes close to a mathematical contemplation.

No. I mean: why can't N be mapped onto 0.1-1 (or 0.1-0.9999999999.....). I use every member of N one time.
December 27, 2021 at 07:27
Okay, last time. Between 0.1 and 0.99999.... you use all numbers of N; 1,2,3,....9999999..... Are there more numbers? It's a 1-1 map! Strangely enough...
December 27, 2021 at 07:23
The diagonol proof doesn’t apply here. I was thinkiñg that too. The interval I talk about is 0.1 to 1. Not zero to 1.
December 27, 2021 at 07:18
I was a bit angry when I wrote that! Forget it! I don't even know you! There is a 1-1 function from N onto (the interval from 0.1 to 1). Isn't there?

December 27, 2021 at 07:04
But where am I wrong in my proof? Cannot N be mapped onto 0.1-1? You ñeed N numbers for that: 1-99999999.... What number do I leave out here? Or do I ...
December 27, 2021 at 06:57
I mean, where am I wrong if I say that N^3 can be mapped on R?
December 27, 2021 at 06:38
I think it's the continuum that confuses me, and its break-up into (onto?) its parts. I think the break-up of a square into lines is the same as a lin...
December 27, 2021 at 06:34
In fact, I like that theorem!
December 27, 2021 at 06:28
You can map N to all reals between 0.1 and 0.999999... You can do this N times (for all smaller decimals). You can do this for all N size one interval...

Yeah, you are right about that! Sorry that I called you dogmatic and exclusionary! You certainly got me interested in this aleph topic! As a physicist...
December 27, 2021 at 06:20
On the contrary. I even told you I contradict myself in previous posts. I never told you to consider other posts. Anyhow... I'm truly tired and my bel...
December 27, 2021 at 06:16
You don't need the diagonal proof to realize that. Every real number can be mapped from N^3. Every real number can be reached from N^3. N^3 can be map...

Sounds good mr. Gill. Almost convincing. But you construct a new number from the both. Giving them both different decimal places. The diagonal proof o...
December 27, 2021 at 05:17
Well, the point made is that a pair of numbers (x,y) say (0.678567..., 0,98678...) is contained in a single number 0.65456456.... The infinite number ...
December 27, 2021 at 04:47
L The point is that the proof in quora is incorrect. It's making use of decimal expansions also but overlooks the majority of them.

It could be that a new bang awaits behind us. If the universe expands because it does so on a 4d space. When the present universe has accelerated into...

Well... I don't take it too seriously... You are probably right. Still, I can't see how R and RxR can have the same cardinality. There are just inf^3 ...

There are a lot of good books indeed. Thanks for the references. I prefer the math use in physics though. And the alephity of the continuum has implic...
December 27, 2021 at 03:48
Indeed. So N can't be mapped 1-1 onto. You can at most map N to infinite points, infinite times. Say 1 into 2, 2 into 4, 3 into 6, etc. But into still...
