has been kind enough to send me an email about the post about pi , where a few notes I felt good questions to answer publicly.
not reproduce the questions. I think for the answers, you deduct the issues discussed.
i - Much of what I write (if not almost all) is based on ideas or discoveries of other people. Very little of what you read on this site belong to me 100%, and in fact, never rule out that what I think my original thought not.
ii - The case of the number Pi has to do with this ... but not quite. In fact the inspiration for the short article was born out of something I am researching about the multiverse, and that intrigued me enough to take me to delve deeper into an issue.
turns out that certain theoretical exercises lead to the possibility of parallel universes (multiverse). Some theoretical support a defined amount of Multiverses, even mentioning the number 10 ^ 500 . Under certain cirscunstancias, supported by other theories, the amount may be Multiverses infinite.
If there are infinite multiverse, and each had random initial conditions, the theory allows that anything can happen, occurs in at least one Multiverse.
To summarize, since I'm not ready yet to write about the multiverse in detail, part of the theoretical development that justifies this issue of "infinite possibilities" is based on the implementation of Zero-One Law of Kolmogorov.
iii-Indeed, there is a relationship between the story Infinite monkey and my little article on Pi. It's just that both, to justify mathematically, require that law of Kolmogorov.
From this point of view, the story of the monkeys, my descule on Pi and Multiverses theory are but different aspects the same issue: the endless repetition of an event, at random, so that one is totally unrelated to the first, gives a different probability zero for each of their results (Kolmogorov says, in fact, that the probability of an event is zero or one. In this particular case, it is easy to show that the probability is not zero).
This, in itself, there is nothing mysterious. If we have trouble processing these exercises and their consequences, simply because the concept of infinity is incomprehensible to our minds.
somehow very, very simplistic, infinity is a whole which includes all things possible.
iv - that Pi may have hidden information is something that, clearly referring to the note, took the novel Contact of Carl Sagan. The difference (obvious) between what he wrote and my little article is that Sagan attributed the information within Pi to a superior intelligence able to have designed our universe at home. In my practice, meaning anything in Pi is a simple consequence of the law of Kolmogorov Zero-One.
That "anything meaningful," obviously and contrary to Sagan, not information.
(Obviously, if the decimal number and , or any other irrational , were random, the same phenomenon would occur.)
v - Nowhere in the article "Pi" I say that the idea "all within Pi" is original mine. What's more, I'm sure it is not. Therefore, nothing more and nothing less, not attribute it to me.
I think, though, that the way in I got the idea is quite personal.
vi - Personally, I find it very difficult to think of the viability of the infinite as something real. Say there is no doubt that there are mathematically infinite and are "manageable", but from the standpoint of the real world I have rejected the idea of \u200b\u200binfinity in any of its variations (time, space, number of Multiverse, etc).
Nothing else for now. Only
thank again Mr. M. and you, who have taken the trouble to decipher the words menjunge.
