Was the Big Bang the Beginning? Reimagining Time in a Cyclic Universe

  • Опубликовано: 17 май 2024
  • A universe that continually expands has long been the dominant cosmological framework. But a universe that undergoes cycles of expansion and contraction, perhaps for all time, has recently been analyzed mathematically, and its proponents claim that it provides a more convincing cosmological paradigm. Join leaders of this renegade approach as they make the case for a new kind of cosmology that reimagines time.

Four very, very clever people including THE science populariser of our age have come up with an alternative to something that has always bothered me. I can usually grasp the rough idea and communicate it but inflation (in the cosmic sense) had me utterly baffled, I feel a lot better knowing that I wasn't losing it. Utter respect to all of you especially Anna whose passion shows clearly. To have achieved so much while so young is doubly incredible, to explain it in another language with such clarity is staggering.

For example, is a simulation based on a 'solid model', i.e. GR, what are the initial conditions used, i.e. spatial shear and is there an arbitrary 'sense' to it all These topics enter the discussion about one hour into the video lead with good questions by Dr. Greene.

    Question: one implies a God if pre bang didn't exist. And time may be man made but pre big bang may of been a plate of gasses that came from even mutation and or evolution where and how did they start.?
    And think that the universe is still forming and it will expand as it cools it may slow and retract and effect gravity as the stars burn out billions and billions Of years from now; note new Suns are being born so this may take eternity.

    One thing that remains unclear to me in this discussion: If, in the cyclic model, inflation can't smooth the universe unless it was already very very smooth to start with, then how can the cyclic model produce a smooth universe even when it lacks the smoothing inflation?

    also, if we run with this Einsteinian dream that all relations are self defining in a sense, the size of the universe changing isn't actually what expansion means, expansion in that sense means the changing of relations inside the space. in that language the notion of a singularity just doesn't exist anymore or it changes into a different kind of statement which can just as easily have a past as any other point or volume.

    The Universe or Multiverse only transforms: It is PURE ENERGY....
    It is impossible to prove it, but it makes no sense to have a Beginning, or an END in time, or any Space LIMIT:
    What could be BEYOND the Space "limit" of the Multiverse? Well, ANOTHER Universe...
    And what could have been BEFORE the BIG BANG? Well, another Universe or Multiverse... And once ours cools down and perhaps COLLAPSES into a SINGULARITY, perhaps it will give rise to another Big Bang... ETERNAL...!!!
    And most importantly: That Universe-Multiverse is GOD!

    you see it depends on the coordinate interpretations, because at a certain expansion rate the rate of change in the energy density can also be corresponding in a funky way, but this only makes good physical sense for these types of equations when you define energy in a certain way, and this business has to do with derivatives of the metric and so on and the energy densities even when they are 0 and so it isn't as un-tricky as either Einstein or his contemporaries knew anything about, the essential boiled down version is that you can pick a convention and it will sort out your derivatives independently of what the energy densities actually are without changing the equations so to speak in this more involved language, so in a sense they where both right and wrong. this is the gist anyway :)

    The idea of a cyclical universe was popular in antiquity. Many Greek philosophers propounded this idea. It was particularly common in stoic philosophy. The idea fell out of favor however with the advent of Christianity. Writing in 400 CE, St. Augustine argued that if the universe were cyclical, Christ would have to die an infinite number of times in cycle after cycle. The Idea was then abandoned in the west for centuries. It reemerged in the 18th and 19th centuries, perhaps most notably in the works of Fredrick Nietzsche. This idea of a cyclical universe is commonly call eternal return.

    There's a concept of cyclical time and the universe in Hindu scriptures, especially Rig Ved . It talks of eternal creation and destruction of the universe and time. Shiva is the entity that drives the time and Vishnu controls the space. Shakti is the energy that gives birth to matter. Time dilation , which has been proven, the Mahabharata says 100 years of Brahma is 311.04 trillion years, which is roughly the life span of our universe.This concept given in these scriptures make me see everything with a scientific eye and encourage my curiosity to know more and more about our universe.
    " There was neither non-existence nor existence then;
    Neither the realm of space, nor the sky which is beyond;
    What stirred? Where? In whose protection?
    There was neither death nor immortality then;
    No distinguishing sign of night nor of day;
    That One breathed, windless, by its own impulse;
    Other than that there was nothing beyond.
    Darkness there was at first, by darkness hidden;
    Without distinctive marks, this all was water;
    That which, becoming, by the void was covered;
    That One by force of heat came into being;
    Who really knows? Who will here proclaim it?
    Whence was it produced? Whence is this creation?
    Gods came afterwards, with the creation of this universe.
    Who then knows whence it has arisen?
    Whether God's will created it, or whether He was mute;
    Perhaps it formed itself, or perhaps it did not;
    The Supreme Brahman of the world, all pervasive and all knowing
    He indeed knows, if not, no one knows. "

    The competing cosmological models are pretty dependent on principles. What if the universe's minimum a(t) never was microscopic due to space requirements of its total energy content (then of an extremely nonlinear, selfinteracting system)? And time, whatever this is in the spatial bottleneck situation, could it have slowed down enough to guarantee sort of thermodynamic equilibrium to be reached without any inflationary necessity? And kind of a Feigenbaum scenario with a plethora of phase transitions would then have had the time necessary to evolve and generate complexity...

    It may be helpful to consider that the universe INCLUDES a 4th SPATIAL dimensions that we cannot interact with (being the 3D creatures that we are). It would solve a lot of these questions as well as many problems with the big bang theory. Dark matter and dark energy could be solved by that, too.

    • @wessla

      A 4th spatial dimension is only a hypothetical construct to move our 3 dimensions inside. It’s done in programming for example. You can use even more mathematical dimensions to create more efficient storage systems. We also have string theory and quantum loop hypothesis that includes over 10 dimensions.
      The problem isn’t really a lack of invoking dimensions. The problem lies in that it’s hard to make new ideas that contain less Ingredients but explains more.

      @@philharmer198 You are correct the volume doesn’t change but the way it’s possible to occupy that volume changes drastically when changing the coordinate system. Imagine creating a storage system containing cells that has a perfect symmetry. In a 2D framework your volume would be occupied by “coins”, or “flat spheres”. You would be restricted to putting all data side by side with a lot of unused volume where the coins doesn’t touch. and in a 3D framework you could stack these coins with layers that doesn’t have any unused space between layers.
      You would still have unused volume on each layer which could be used by adding additional dimensions. This will also lead to new ways to access each cell and layer. One set of 3 dimensional cells becomes an array with data which can be included in a new set containing more arrays.
      I believe higher dimensional data is used in machine learning and also when you google.
      Ever wondered how you can just make a search on google on any arbitrary information and in milliseconds reach millions of results?
      From a 4th dimension you would observe everything from the beginning of time to the end of time looking at something in 3 dimensions. Similar to how looking on a drawing on a paper from 3 dimensions reveal all the information contained on that paper.

    Well, all panelists were assuming that for a cyclical universe the WHOLE of universe has to expand and contract in cycles, but we have observed that local parts of the universe do contract to a singularity, each black hole observed. Mass and energy contract to a singularity and that is where a part of our universe ends and on the other side of the singularity, they are “white holes” where new universes are formed, so each black hole in our observable universe is a “bounce” but not back into our universe but into a new separate universe that we will never be able to interact with (since “light” / causality in one can no longer escape from one to another). Our universe itself is on the other side of such a black hole “bounce” in some other universe. This has been happening ad infinitum so therefore it is like the chicken and egg, there is no beginning nor end.

      People argue that since there are hundreds of billions of galaxies, each with tens of billions of stars each with tens of planets that by the laws of statistical probabilities there must be another intelligent species somewhere in our own universe. Sure there must be other intelligent species out there in each universe but the distances are so huge that there is no possibility of these intelligent species interacting. Additionally those intelligent species in other universes behind each black hole will never be able to interact. These enormous distances explain the Fermi paradox. Our own species should be amazed by the exceptional miracle of our existence and get along with each other rather than try and exterminate the minuscule amount of intelligent life that we have in our local bit of space.

    with respect to this comment i just made, pauls point makes a lot of sense, but i think it is a mix, i think he thought he had some notion of self consistency baked in and the observations carried it, little did he know that to explain the broken scale in variance in the physics of atoms in the same language as curved spacetime you need the universe to expand, it turns out it cannot bounce outside very spacial cases that are ultimately local fluctuations and shouldn't really be viewed as contraction, it could never happen for a large universe like ours, but essentially the mechanisms you need to explain the broken scale invariance of matter and a lot of other feature of the forces you absolutely need expansion in the context of this ever increasing entropy to explain features that look driven and damped in equal propotions in relation to a moving definition of energy related to the broken scale invariance. but he could never have known that something as simple as self consistency could tie all these things together, and that is the curse of being a pioneer, you never know what might come next, and so we shouldn't take our principles so seriously outside understanding their application and intent in a separated way.
