Abstract

It is argued that properties of Democritus' atoms parallel those of volume forms in differential geometry. This kind of atoms has not "size" of finite magnitude. ----- Se arguye que las propiedades de los atomos de Democrito son paralelas a las de sus formas de volumen en geometria diferencial. Este tipo de atomos no tiene tamanno de magnitud finita.
