When Einstein introduced the cosmological fixed in his idea of normal relativity, he did so as a result of he was guided by the paradigm of the day that the universe was static (i.e. neither contracting nor expanding). The cosmological constant offered a method of balancing the gravitational contraction attributable to matter. It was later […]





Insights and discoveries revealed to human minds 2500 years ago, at the time of the Buddha (or even a number of centuries earlier than that point), may have precipitated deep and revolutionary results in the evolution of current world views, no much less necessary than the discoveries of Galileo and Copernicus have been for the […]





What do we all know about the spin connection? If we want to be in step with general relativity while adding only minimal structure (which GSW notes isn’t always the case), we have to impose consistency once we take covariant derivatives. Specifically, any vector subject with manifold indices () can now be recast as a […]





P.S. I am not sure if my letter to Feynman in 1975, сериал друзья все серии (telling him the place Einstein received his insight) pointed him to the SD. (He never responded.) Nevertheless it wasn’t really essential for his personal work… Since, Einstein (and Millikan, for another — but that is another story) had already […]





The same basic concept is adopted by Nicolai Hartmann: “That a being is ‘in it-self’ means to say that it exists actually and never only for us… Being-in-itself doesn’t must be proved, it is given because the world itself is given.”[12] Hartmann’s most valuable contribution, nevertheless, is his entrance into the profound analysis of what […]
