Critical Study of wonder book writing tradition in the Islamic World; A case study on Zakaria Qazvini's ʿAjāʾib al-Makhlūqāt
Wonder book writing has been of customary traditions in Islamic historiography. Wonder book writing first emerged as one type of Islamic geography and cosmology and in fact, it is the common product of natural history and geography. ʿAjāʾib Namah could be considered as unique forms of encyclopedias that are remarkable in terms of literary, cosmology, geography and natural history. In ʿAjāʾib Na...
متن کاملIntroduction to Schramm-Loewner evolution and its application to critical systems
In this short review we look at recent advances in Schramm-Loewner Evolution (SLE) theory and its application to critical phenomena. The application of SLE goes beyond critical systems to other time dependent, scale invariant phenomena such as turbulence, sand-piles and watersheds. Through the use of SLE, the evolution of conformally invariant paths on the complex plane can be followed; hence a...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of the Metaphysical Basis of Ancient Iran-China Political Approach
Considering the cosmology with mythological form of consciousness era as the primary base of metaphysical form and the basis of development toward an integrated cosmology, political ideas has been placed in an organic link with a metaphysical system in the ancient Persians as well as Chinese political thought. Based on considerable similarities among cosmological systems in civilizations e.g....
متن کاملCosmic Walls and Filaments Formation in Modied Chaplygin Gas Cosmology
We want to study the perturbation growth of an initial seed of an ellipsoidal shape in Top-Hat collapse model of the structure formation in the Modied Chaplygin gas cosmology. Considering reasonable values of the constants and the parameters of the model under study, we can show that a very small deviation from spherical symmetry (ellipsoidal geometry) in the initial seed leads to a nal highly ...
متن کاملStochastic Gravity and Self-Organized Critical Cosmology
A stochastic theory of gravity is described in which the metric tensor is a random variable such that the spacetime manifold is a fluctuating physical system at a certain length scale. A general formalism is described for calculating probability densities for gravitational phenomena in a generalization of general relativity (GR), which reduces to classical GR when the magnitude of the metric fl...
