I am planning three articles on a new number system; two are about the number system itself because there are two significantly different number fields: the infinite expansion of real numbers with isotropic and anisotropic number fields. And the third article is about how these numbers can be used to model physical processes. At the moment, the first article has been completed and the second one is going on. But the hardest task will be the third article. After registration, you may ask for a translation of the full text by email. 

It may seem like I'm idle because there was hardly anything on my website since February. But I am working hard on a new number system. It is a big task - I can't promise to finish it within reasonable time. I'd like to write a little about Roger Penrose's latest book, "Fashion, Faith, and Fantasy in the New Physics of the Universe". Another plan is to comment Lee Smolin’s article about the final illusion. (https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/space-the-final-illusion)

An old Poem An old poem is humming in my ears for days, Mihály Tompa, The birds to his sons*: Silent upon a barren bough how long Will ye remain, sad choristers and mute ? Have ye forgotten the sweet lay and song I taught you ? Though blithe music ill would suit Our present lot, though wit and mirth be gone And at the notes no merry echoes ring. Although the song should be a mournful one Sing, sons, I prithee sing! A tempest has our forest refuge torn, No leafy shelter doth receive us now. Still silent ? Will ye vanish with the morn, Will ye desert us when we are brought low? Ah, in an alien grove…

Testimony Quotes as abstract „Why are numbers beautiful? It’s like asking why Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony is beautiful. If you don’t see why, someone can’t tell you. I know numbers are beautiful. If they aren’t beautiful, nothing is.” (Paul Erdős) “Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas.” (Albert Einstein) “Mathematics is the most beautiful and most powerful creation of the human spirit.” (Stefan Banach) “Many who have had an opportunity of knowing any more about mathematics confuse it with arithmetic, and consider it an arid science. In reality, however, it is a science which requires a great amount of imagination.” (Sofia Kovalevskaja) After registration, you may ask for a translation of the full text by email.
