You see, our knowledge of Quantum Mechanics is the poking around with
Aristotelian straightline logic and we run into something like the
Double Slit
Experiment which our linear minds is unable, at first to understand.
We keep
poking around with it and slowly we piece together the explanation
because
the explanation is Quantum Mechanics of nonlinear logic or duality
logic.

Our minds do not understand it directly because we cannot think
duality logic
but we can come to the truthful conclusions. This has been the way of
understanding
physics all along, in that we see the magnetic field, a mysterious
force that
pervades space and we slowly put it together into the Maxwell
Equations. But the
mysteries and misunderstandings always remain because our minds were
never
at home in duality logic, our minds were built to function as linear
logic.

Now this example out of mathematics that N! is the total number of
ways of arranging
N distinct items into a sequence, called permutations in old math. But
let us use that
example of N! and examine it in new-math where Physics is supreme and
math but a
tiny subset. Let us examine N! as duality logic in Quantum Mechanics.

Let us take 254! which is close enough to 10^500. The number 254! is
element 100 and
is where the StrongNuclear Force no longer exists. In a sense, physics
no longer exists
if there is no StrongNuclear Force available.

Now in linear logic we think that we can always multiply and that the
rules of Old-math
apply no matter how large the numbers we are multiplying. But what if
the Universe was
a sphere and we multiplied 10^600 x 10^700? In Old math, that would be
very acceptable.
In New Math, duality logic steps in and says the Universe is spherical
and beyond a certain
multiplication, that we no longer get "good answers", for our numbers
are so large that we
physically have no place to put those numbers since we circumnavigated
all the way back around to our starting point. In Old Math they would
say that a airplane that flew 50,000 km
x 3 times in a straight line is "alright math", whereas in fact it is
bad math because Earth
is only 40,000 circumference, so the multiplication breaks down.

So what New Math does is recognize that Physics is supreme and math
but the backseat
passenger.

So there is a new meaning to the N! of Old Math. Old Math saw N! as
only a linear logic
of multiplication in Euclidean Geometry. But in Elliptic or Hyperbolic
Geometry N! now takes
on an entirely new meaning. N! means more like volume building where
254! is equal to
10^500 and it builds 10^500 cells. Each of those possible sequences of
that 254! is a cell
with volume. So instead of a distance travelling around and around a
sphere by a large number such as 254!, the new meaning of 254! is that
it yields a construction of the sphere
itself in volume with cells. Now in Old Math, this cell building was
recognized when we did
2x3 or 4x5x6 to create volume, but it only allowed volume with
multiplication of three or less
multipliers because of orthogonality was only three orthogonals of
dimension. In Old math
it was never thought that 254! had 254 orthogonals for 254 dimensions.
And Quantum Mechanics has only 3 physical dimensions so orthogonality
is not an issue here. What is
an issue is that in duality logic, multiplication breaks down because
it no longer makes sense
on Elliptical geometry. In Elliptic Geometry, the number 254! now
becomes not a straight line
enlarged by multiplication, but becomes a multiplication machine that
spews out sequences, and each sequence is a volume-cell of Elliptic
geometry. So when asked to do 254! on a
sphere surface, we are not travelling around and around that sphere,
but we are in fact
cutting up that sphere into tiny compartments or cells that are 10^500
cells inside.

You see, when physics is in control, the answers always come back to
where there is
commonsense physical reality, something with hands on experimenting
you can apply. When math is in control, you often get nothing but
imagination run amok and seldom any physical connection to anything,
where old math
is on par with religion and philosophy.
