Mixmaster chaos
The significant discussion about the possible chaotic behavior of the mixmaster cosmological model due to Cornish and Levin [J.N. Cornish and J.J. Levin, Phys. Rev. Lett. 78 (1997) 998; Phys. Rev. D 55 (1997) 7489] is revisited. We improve their method by correcting nontrivial oversights that make their work inconclusive to precisely confirm their result: “The mixmaster universe is indeed chaot...
متن کاملRisks of Plastic Debris: Unravelling Fact, Opinion, Perception, and Belief
Researcher and media alarms have caused plastic debris to be perceived as a major threat to humans and animals. However, although the waste of plastic in the environment is clearly undesirable for aesthetic and economic reasons, the actual environmental risks of different plastics and their associated chemicals remain largely unknown. Here we show how a systematic assessment of adverse outcome ...
متن کاملMixmaster Hořava-Witten Cosmology
We discuss various superstring effective actions and, in particular, their common sector which leads to the so-called pre-big-bang cosmology (cosmology in a weak coupling limit of heterotic superstring). Then, we review the main ideas of the Hořava-Witten theory which is a strong coupling limit of heterotic superstring theory. Using the conformal relationship between these two theories we prese...
متن کاملNoncommutative Mixmaster Cosmologies
In this paper we investigate a variant of the classical mixmaster universe model of anisotropic cosmology, where the spatial sections are noncommutative 3-tori. We consider ways in which the discrete dynamical system describing the mixmaster dynamics can be extended to act on the noncommutative torus moduli, and how the resulting dynamics differs from the classical one, for example, in the appe...
متن کاملHow to Mistake a Trivial Fact About Probability For a Substantive Fact About Justified Belief
It is sometimes thought that the lottery paradox and the paradox of the preface demand a uniform solution (Hunter (1996) and Foley (1992), for example). Let us see why that appears to be the case. I am justified in believing that my lottery ticket—call it t1—will not win, on statistical grounds. Those grounds apply equally to any other ticket, so I am justified in believing of any other ticket ...
