You believe that math is a discovery, not an invention of man.

What about 'the laws of physics', are they an invention of man or a
discovery?

Or, is it as simple as...'people see what they want to see'.

Truth is discovered / 
lies are invented / 
when you discover a lie / 
that's the truth

That's poetic, but also "truths" are invented, 
sure.

There's not so much a technical difference 
between inventing one's mental machinery 
and discovering it's the truth.

Really though I think you'd be more interested 
in possibilities in mathematics for physics 
than the semantics of "discovery vs. invention" 
when those aren't exclusive.  That's not so much 
a wild goose chase, as chasing a goose (or "snipe").

(You can leave that to mathematics.  Also that 
doesn't interfere with your cognitive semantics 
about knowledge and its discovery, or what you 
establish via action.)

I don't undersatnd what you are saying...
you simply have a perpective of the world
where you see math and laws of physics as
somewhere out there...on what planet, Pluto?
Mars...under a rock somewhere? Where is it that these
math rules and laws of physics exist at? maybe on an asteroid,
a comet...inside a star? It has to be somewhere besides...in you mind.

But where??? where is it at? 

Yous are no different than people who believe in flying saucers from
outer space or, ghosts.

There are just inventions of the mind...

And I cannot believe people 'still' hang to a guy born 347 BC named Plato.

Plato invented the inventions of the mind.

I'll take it a step further..
looking at it in reverse...
the laws of physics
cannot explain...people,
math cannot explain people.

Things that don't exist cannot explain that which does.

People exist on earth. Where do the laws of physics exist? What place in the universe?


Answer: There is no place...

it exist only in the mind.

So Starmaker and HVAC are the same?

"A Theory of Mind", and there are various of 
those, may be an enlightened personal philosophy 
(and it's not a lack thereof).  

The field of cognition as of beliefs / desires / 
motivations in a usual model of sentience , in 
part explains people.

We're scientists.  We know that science informs 
us, including that bad science misinforms (that's 
quantitative).


Here, mathematics is established via proof, logical 
proof.  From the foundations of a mathematical logic, 
mathematical relations _are established as facts, 
then physicists know their _model of physics_ is 
a mathematical model where the mathematics if fixed, 
mathematics is never wrong, only the model can be 
wrong.  

This is familiar from a usual hallway quote or classroom 
quip with "quantum mechanics is never wrong", qualifiedly, 
"if you can find an error in quantum mechanics we can publish 
it and get famous."   Its the brass ring, but generally 
also considered somewhat difficult to achieve (learning to 
understand quantum mechanics).  


Our physical model has components seemingly / obviously 
very well suited to utilize a mathematical theory of 
"real" (for the concrete) mathematical infinitesimals, 
here, for as of the differential (often "dx").

Then, where the grail is "solving for the path integral", 
it is of the consequences of all configuration of 
experiment, then for that a mathematical physics would 
be needing infinity, if it's in the physics (really).

The universe is infinite or we'd be a point (all 
one reference frame).  That we aren't, is that it is.

Does Einstein have enough quotable material, that 
you can find any truth you need from him?  (It's a 
start.)  Luckily his imagination was unbounded.

You don't have to be and Einstein to have unbounded imagination...



Mathematics is just a walt disney cartoon like mickey mouse.

Somebody draws a few lines, calls it a mouse..
and it takes a life of it's own.

Now you have disney land and kids around the world
want to see micky mouse.

But it's just a few lines on paper...a cartoon.

Mathematics was around before Plato was born...
by the time Plato...'discovered it', it already took a life
of it's own. 

I think you're just making a mountain out of a mathematical
infinitesimals molehill.

If we go back to rocks and sticks, it will be the 'scientific community' doing...

thank Einstein...he invented the atomic bomb, he aslo said:

Sure, I already knew Einstein's quote when I wrote that.

automatically equips theory with the feature.

OK.  (This is a textual discussion, not conducive to 
the metered presentation of "video content".)

Mandelbrot, as about the fractal or self-similar, 
then is about two notions:

1) self-similarity at various scales of organization, eg 
  electron orbitals are like planet orbits, 
  the wave crest is a fringe, etc, 
  measuring the coastline
2) self-similarity at all scales
  space-filling curves are what linear patterns 
    comprise or cover areas or areal segments

Basically what I would bring to your attention is 
a spiral space-filling curve as from the origin as a 
natural continuum, for example that is a line.

Otherwise the usual space-filling curves we see are box 
curves, that "spiral" or maze in, with knight's tours and 
this kind of thing ("curves" are "non-crossing").

A spiral space-filling curve (of R^2) would not be a 
real-function, of sorts, because it is drawn of points, 
so, each point on the spiral space-filling curve is only:
a) farther away from the origin than any preceding point
b) closer to the origin than any following point
Then in R^2, R^3, ..., R^n, the spiral space-filling curve 
only fills the unit hyperball, it is from
(0, 0, { n-many}, 0) to (1, 1, {n-many}, 1).
eg:
[0,1] in R^1.

Then, it's worked up that this is another builder for 
a continuum (or rather a unit length segment of a 
continuum) than ran(EF) which is [0,1].  (Also it 
is ran(EF) in R^1.  )

Then, in _all_ the dimensions, or poly-dimensionally, 
it is the same function, then also as to its pan-dimensionality.

Is this what you're talking about, "fractals" and "self-similarity" 
then about "space-filling curves"?

Galaxies are atoms.
Galactic nuclei are atomic nuclei.
Galactic star-arms are electrons.
Up/down electrons are matter/antimatter
star-arms.
Neutrinos go through matter and are
absorbed by galactic nuclei, resulting 
in expansion; similar radiations from
electrons are absorbed by atomic
nuclei resulting in Gravity and inertia.

Burnt-out stars are shredded when
they fall back into the galactic center
and the energy from absorbed
neutrinos is reinvested into jets of
HEPs (high-energy particles) which
blast outward at .9c and produce new
stars in a never-ending cycle.
Similarly, the energy that electrons
are constantly radiating is returned to
them by their protons in the same way;
the electrons constantly accelerating and
radiating but never running out, while
the protons are constantly absorbing
and gravitating but never overheating
in a never-ending cycle.
No BB.
No "heat death".
No BS.

Consider all of space-time somehow laid 
out in this resulting "continuum".  First, 
the three dimensions of space, have to fit 
in the linear continuum.  So, kind of like 
super-string looks to have three dimensions 
to store the relevant information, for each 
space dimension, here they are folded into 
the infinitesimals and infinities of the one 
dimension.  This is simply in numerical resource 
terms.  

Then, and this is a "single-Universe" approach, 
also it is so for time, then all of everything 
for each instant of time started forever ago, 
and, has conservation and symmetry about the 
numerical resources as would represent each 
point in an infinite space-time in a continuum.

So, BB Big Bang and SS Steady State are both, 
from our perspective or that of observers, then 
about where we are today, they're concurrent 
interpretations of the continuum.

(Is the future already written out, no, I wouldn't 
know that it was.)

And on we flow.

This is for "final cause" from "first principles" 
for a purely logical mathematical physics that is 
scientific.

"Cosmological expansion was originally discovered 
through observations by Edwin Hubble."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steady_State_theory

The farther we look in the Universe, the bigger it 
looks.  The closer we look at the atom, the smaller 
it looks.

Somehow, reality is both Big Bang, and Steady State, 
and even Immobile Celestial Spheres of the Steady State.

Change is constant, there is a gradient.

This is courtesy the "root probabilistic flaw".
