  • Are you a Boson or fermion?

  • How can time travel be defined?

    Any change is a relative phenomenon. It is always my time relative to your time. So if I go to future or past My time is always going to grow which I can see as physical changes in my body. If my time is going to grow at faster speed it will have impact on my aging. On the other hand if my time is going to go in reverse direction I will cease to remember anything. Then their is the concept of universal time which is negated by Einstine's relativity. At quantum level their is time difference between various parts of self unless self is a formless entity.

  • Can anyone prove this by inductive logic?

    All prime number other than 2 and 3 can be generated with product of two or more primes and one added to it.

    e.g.

    2 * 2 + 1 = 5

    2 * 3 + 1 = 7

    2 * 5 + 1 = 11

    2 * 2 * 3 + 1 = 13 and so on...

    Now this is easy subtract 1 from any prime number other than 2 we will get an even no. that will have 2 as its factor but one has to do it with inductive logic in the form of above series.

  • Are popular people at disadvantage?

    Most of the people who work for the progress of the country and have less children are at disadvantage because their gene penetration in the future population will be less. Those from the lower strata who reproduce more as is the way of nature are at very high advantage though they may seem to be at disadvantage at present but future belongs to them as of now they are getting some sort of economic, health, social and other securities. Most of the people weather advantaged or disadvantaged can't be blamed for this as they are ignorant about the facts. Even Tata's, Birla's and Ambani's are at disadvantage because material wealth is not a sustainable entity. This is an important question for all of us so please discuss about this and if possible convey this message to anyone who can do something about it.

  • Does any bijection exist that will generate all prime numbers only?

    We know of many infinite sets in mathematics among those many can by generated by algebraic functions of the form y = f(x), let us call these natural bijections. Among others many are defined by human beings such as rational numbers. These are computed through iterative methods or by check methods. Now the question is are these sets natural considering that humans are also natural entities. This question has significant psychological importance and who knows spiritual also. I am talking about mind-body problem. I have asked a similar question three days back.

  • Can we map all prime numbers?

    Mapping of infinite group of elements in mathematics is done through cardinality. Counting is considered to be first in mathematic. If there is bijection(one-one onto) with natural numbers the set is said to have equal cardinality(i.e. they are exactly mapped) otherwise it has greater cardinality.

    Solar cycles and topography effect the climate, environment and birth period of many species including humans.

    Other celestial bodies are used in travelling and making journey by humans, moths etc.
