The Einstein field equations for a class of irrotational non-orthogonally transitive $G_{2}$ cosmologies are written down as a system of partial differential equations. The equilibrium points are self-similar and can be written as a…
The axioms of ZFC provide a foundation for mathematics, however, there are statements independent of ZFC, such as the Continuum Hypothesis (CH). We discuss Martin's axiom, which is an alternative to CH that roughly states that if there is a…
We find an infinite number of noncommutative geometries which posses a differential structure. They generalize the two dimensional noncommutative plane, and have infinite dimensional representations. Upon applying generalized coherent…
There is increasing evidence that the universe may have a small cosmological constant. We suggest a scheme for naturally generating a small cosmological constant. Our idea requires the presence of a discrete accidental symmetry which is…
When the cosmological "constant" is derived from modern five-dimensional relativity, exact solutions imply that for small systems it scales in proportion to the square of the mass. However, a duality transformation implies that for large…
We show that Martin's axiom for $\omega_1$ dense sets is equivalent to its fragment asserting that every ccc poset has the Knaster property K$_3$. On the other hand, we show that the dimension 3 in K$_3$ is in some sense minimal.
The cosmological principle posits that the universe does not exhibit any specific preference for position or direction. However, it remains unclear whether the universe has a distinct preference for parity: whether certain properties are…
The infinite cosmological "constant" limit of the de Sitter solutions to Einstein's equation is studied. The corresponding spacetime is a singular, four-dimensional cone-space, transitive under proper conformal transformations, which…
Conventional thinking says the universe is infinite. But it could be finite and relatively small, merely giving the illusion of a greater one, like a hall of mirrors. Recent astronomical measurements add support to a finite space with a…
The coincidence of the $\Ind$ and $\dim$ dimensions for first countable paracompact $\sigma$-spaces is proved. This gives a positive answer to A. V. Arkhangel'skii's question of whether the dimensions $\ind X$, $\Ind X$, and $\dim X$ are…
A space $X$ has a $\mathbb{Q}$-diagonal if $X^2\setminus \Delta$ has a $\mathcal{K}(\mathbb{Q})$-directed compact cover. We show that any compact space with a $\mathbb{Q}$-diagonal is metrizable, hence any Tychonorff space with a…
There is a deep cosmological mystery: although dependent on very different underlying physics, the timescales of structure formation, of galaxy cooling (both radiatively and against the CMB), and of vacuum domination do not differ by many…
The aim of the present paper is to investigate the half-spaces in the convexity structure of all quasiorders on a given set and to use them in an alternative approach to classical order dimension. The main result states that linear orders…
We present a non-physical interpretation of the Cosmological Constant based on a particular algebraic analysis. This also introduces some novel algebraic structures, such as ``unital norms", ``uncurling metrics", and ``partial wedge…
We examine a particular kind of six-dimensional Cremonian universe featuring one dimension of space, three dimensions of time and other two dimensions that can*not* be ranked as either time or space. One of these two, generated by a…
In the Kaluza-Klein model with a cosmological constant and a flux, the external spacetime and its dimension of the created universe from a $S^s \times S^{n-s}$ seed instanton can be identified in quantum cosmology. One can also show that in…
We consider the dimensions of finite type of representations of a partially ordered set, i.e. such that there is only finitely many isomorphism classes of representations of this dimension. We give a criterion for a dimension to be of…
We find some statements in the language of asymmetric topology and continuous partial orders which are equivalent to the statements $\kappa < \mathfrak m$ or $\kappa < \mathfrak p$.
In this paper, we establish some fixed point theorems in ordered partial metric spaces. An example is given to illustrate our obtained results.
Pointwise tangential dimensions are introduced for metric spaces. Under regularity conditions, the upper, resp. lower, tangential dimensions of X at x can be defined as the supremum, resp. infimum, of box dimensions of the tangent sets, a…
