jackrell Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 The two dimensional regular polygon series, triangle, square, pentagon, hexagon etc. is infinite. An observer of the entire series will not be able to observe individual members. As a result, the series must appear continuous. Suppose that the regular polygon series was finite rather than infinite. In this case an observer would always see the series as discontinuous. How would this affect our universe? Would one dimensional parameters like length and breadth become discontinuous? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyrisch Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 I guess. This isn't that far-fetched... It is reminiscent of quantisation which is observed in nature already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D H Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 It looks like gibberish to me. Moreover, we live in what appears to be a three dimensional universe. There are only five platonic solids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 It looks like gibberish to me. I quite agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJBruce Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 It looks like gibberish to me. Agreed completely. But I'm no geometry expert so if it is rational could someone explain it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
