All other attempts of Indirect on Euclid Numbers were invalid proof arguments because only when P-1 and P+1 are necessarily new prime numbers is there a valid Euclid IP Indirect proof. So I am not modifying anything, I am rendering the first valid Euclid IP Indirect. And why would any intelligent mathematician, knowing that Regular Primes infinitude is a more general theory than just the subset of Twin Primes, why would any mathematician with his/her thinking cap on, think that the Euclid method cannot yield Twin Primes when it yields Regular Primes. So here, I can draft a proof that mathematicians are nincompoops if they think that infinitude of regular primes is yielded by Euclid's scheme but that his scheme cannot yield Twin Primes. This maybe the first proof that mathematicians are nincompoops. > Meanwhile, the following isn't directly related to Twin > Primes, but I post it here anyway.

So that a huge circle that is the circumference, then the value of pi is exactly 2 and not 3.14.... and the smaller you draw the circle on the sphere the more that pi converges to 3.14.... but never actually reaches it. So in Elliptic geometry, there is a circle whose "pi" value is exactly 22/7. In Euclidean geometry the value of "pi" is a constant at 3.14159.... which is approx by 22/7 In the Atom Totality, all of math comes from the Atom Universe, since atoms are numerous we have numbers and since atoms have shape and size we have geometry. Because the Universe is a Plutonium atom and not any of the other chemical elements below plutonium, means that the Atom Totality must explain why we have a value of exactly 3.14159...... and the answer is that plutonium of all the elements has exactly in uncollapsed wavefunction of 3.14159.... for pi and 2.71...... for "e" in uncollapsed wavefunction, but if you collapse the wavefunction, then pi is exactly 22subshells/7 shells of which only 19 occupied subshells /7 shells. A theory of physics that explains the entire Universe, must explain why pi and e values are what they are. Atom Totality explains it by the number of subshells and shells. The Big Bang theory is deaf dumb and silent when it comes to questions like this. > (If the former, then maybe he considers today to be Pi > _Exactness_ Day...) So there is a 19/7 day also as 19 July as the approximation of "e" day. But here is a nice holiday for mathematics. I keep talking about the number 10^500 as the Planck Unit for the boundary between finite number and infinite number. And it is also the number of Coulomb Interactions boundary between having a StrongNuclear force in existence or nonexistence. At about element 98 or 99 or 100 we no longer have a StrongNuclear force because of spontaneous fissioning and a halflife in nanoseconds or less. This occurs when the nucleons reach about 250 or 251 or 253 total neutrons with protons. So we cannot have a calendar date of 10^500 but we can have a calendar date of math celebration for 250! and what day of the year is 250? This brings up an interesting question Lwalk, and I remember some poster a few years back who posted a formula that tells when the factorial is larger than the exponent, something around 26! is greater than 10^26. Here I am asking you a question Lwalk. Where is the factorial 1/2 the value of the exponent? Is it 249! equal to about 10^498 I think that 10^500 is closer to 252! So that my choice of the Planck Unit of largest number as where the StrongNuclear Force no longer exists, has a side twist fascination. Why should the number where the StrongNuclear Force ceases to exist, why should the factorial be exactly 1/2 the value of the exponent. This suggests that a mathematical law or rule underlines the StrongNuclear Force. And that we should thence inspect the Coulomb force as to whether a rule of relationship of the factorial with the exponent exists for Coulomb force.

So in Elliptic geometry, there is a circle whose "pi" > value is exactly 22/7. I believe that in elliptic geometry, pi must be strictly less than Euclidean pi. Since 22/7 exceeds pi, according to the following link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_that_22/7_exceeds_%CF%80 it must be in hyperbolic, not elliptic, geometry where pi can be 22/7. > > (If the former, then maybe he considers today to be Pi > > _Exactness_ Day...) > So there is a 19/7 day also as 19 July as the approximation of "e" > day. Someone already thought about that, in 1997: http://www.rebas.se/humor/piapprox.shtml > Here I am asking you a question Lwalk. Where is the factorial 1/2 the > value of the exponent? Wolfram Alpha is your friend. I typed in the query: solve 2x = log(x!) for x and then clicked on "use the base 10 logarithm." Though Wolfram returns the trivial value x = 0, there is a graph, and one can roll the mouse over the non-trivial solution: (268.087, 536.175) Thus, we find that 268! is approximately 10^536. > So we cannot have a calendar date of 10^500 but we can have a calendar > date of math celebration for 250! and what day of the year is 250? Wolfram Alpha is your friend. I typed in the query: 249 days after January 1 (since January 1 is itself the 1st day, so we add 249 days to the first day to obtain the 250th day). The response is: Tuesday, September 7, 2010. If one wanted the 268th day instead (since 268 was the actual solution to 2x = log(x!) above), then the answer would be September 25 instead. These only work in common years. In leap years, the 250th and 268th days are September 6 and 24 respectively. |
