If one specifies a location along a 1-dim element, it does not make the location a component of the 1-dim element, which stays atomic and non-local by nature.
Who says it does? It is still a point. This is one of your stumbling blocks.

And it is still a bended atomic 1-dim element, so?
jsfisher said:Ok, so why did you include the circle? Just more noise to confuse the issue? That seems to be your hallmark trait. Scramble as much together as possible so you can bounce from the absurd to the inane without missing a beat, and always have enough remaining outlets so gibberish can save you from any criticism.
Take a straight 1-dim with length X.
Bend it and get 4 equal sides along it.
Since the length between the opposite edges is changed to the sum of only 3 sides, and since the number of the sides after the first bending is 4 sides, we have to multiply the bended 1-dim element by 1/(the number of the bended sides), in order to get back length X.
As a result the bended 1-dim element has length X, but the length between its opposite edges becomes smaller (it converges).
In general, this convergent series of 1/(the number of the bended sides) is resulted by 1/1+1/4+1/16+1/64+1/256+... , which has no limit exactly because length X is invariant on infinitely many convergent scales of that series.
The proof without words (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_without_words) was drawn by using AutoCad system, and it is accurate (each given bended 1-dim element has the same X length over infinitely many scales):
You are invited to provide the complete statement of the axiom, by using simple English.
Oppeness and Incompleteness are exactly the same notion about infinite collections, that can't be captured by qany limit or class.
So you can't grasp a proof withot words (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_without_words) as given in http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5696845&postcount=8951 and http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5699060&postcount=8955
The Man, you simply cant rid of the use of points (localities) in your analysis.
The circle and the Koch’s fractal are both closed 1-dim elements, with not even a single point along them.
Inside each convergent circle’s length (which is a 1-dim atomic element) there is a Koch’s fractal (which is a 1-dim atomic element) which its length is invariant upon infinitely many convergent levels.
As a result the convergent series of circles is infinite as long as the invariant length within each convergent circle is found, and more precisely, the increased complexity of Koch’s invariant length is found.
If this convergent series of circles’ lengths has the value of the limit (which is zero) Koch’s fractal invariant length and its infinite increased complexity is lost.
Conclusion: Koch’s fractal invariant length and its infinite increased complexity, is found as long as the value of the limit (which is 0) is not reached, and as a result we get a naturally open and incomplete convergent series.
So did you simply miss that fact or are you deliberately ignoring it?
“So what” clearly summarizes your “deep” understanding of this subject.
Again we see how your standard notion that is based on stretched points as the basis of lines, prevents from you to understand the real complexity, which is the result of Non-locality\Locality Linkage.
The terms of the series are exactly the reason of why the given series has no limit and no sum (it is inherently incomplete).
Simply wrong, and your insistence to claim otherwise does not change the fact that it is a wrong argument of jsfisher, on this subject.
As already explained to you before, any infinite collection is inherently incomplete, exactly because it is not limited to any class.
This “proof” was wrong 2,300 years ago, it is wrong now, and it will stay wrong for the next coming 2,300 years.
In other words, it is a time independent false.
Closed under classes, isn't it The Man?
Any knowledge (obsolete or novel, it does not matter) uses also "baby staps" in order to help people to grasp it, so?
Yes, also by Head/Hammer scholars.
The Man said:Nope, as zooterkin has pointed out to you several times already your ‘bended’ line is no longer one dimensional.
The Man said:Again a circle is one dimensional because of the consistency of its radius, your ‘bended’ line has no such consistent radius
The limit (which has length 0) or any bended location along the 1-dim element, do not contribute anything the invariant X>0 length of the 1-dim element.The Man said:Again a set does not have to have its limit (or limits) as a member (or members) of that set.
You are right about that. You used the term "dragged point" in order to define a line.The Man said:Who ever said anything about “stretched points”, other then you?
Good morning The Man, your limit notion is only a part of your false dream.The Man said:What? So now the series does not even have a limit?
No.The Man said:Um “incomplete” would be a class of collections
Succession it a Trojan horse of any closed notion, exactly as the invariant X>0 is a trojan horse of the convergent series 1/1+1/4+1/16+1/64+1/256+… which is naturally opened (the inconsistency of (X>0)=0 is not a part of the consistent reasoning of the openness of any infinite collection).The Man said:No, it is closed under an operation of succession
The Man said:Until you stop deliberately choosing to be just a baby about things. Any chance of you growing up any time soon Doron?
The "sudden effect" of these topics is the result of your obsolete Limit-oriented knowledge of these topics.The Man said:Doron you simply mentioning those topics does not suddenly imbue either you or your OM with any understanding of them (“deep” or otherwise).
Nonsense.jsfisher said:I have provided a complete statement of the axiom. I'm sorry you don't understand the language in which it was expressed,
jsfisher said:No, terms you invent don't actually mean anything because you refuse to define them.
This is the whole idea of a universal notion, it is not limited to any particular expression of it.jsfisher said:Still, it is nice to see you admit that you also invent multiple terms all to mean the same thing.
The Man said:What, so now the circle is convergent? Again a circle is one dimensional because of the consistency of its radius, your ‘bended’ line has no such consistent radius (if it did it would be a circle).
The Man said:In fact the fully iterated Koch curve (which is a fractal as noted by jsfisher) has a Hausdorff dimension of log(4)/Log(3) or about 1.2619,
The Man said:Again a set does not have to have its limit (or limits) as a member (or members) of that set.
Bended line has no impact on its length, and this is exactly the reason of why infinitely many bended levels are inherently incomplete (the 0 length at the limit is not reached, otherwise we get the false equation (X>0)=0).
Standard Math can't deal with this anomaly by using Limits.
1) The invariant length of Koch's fractal is measured under 1-dim (only the length is considered).
2) The length of the 1-dim element , which clearly converges at each additional bended level, is not influenced by the infinitely many additional bended levels.
3) So we get an anomaly of standard analysis, where at the base of 1/1+1/4+1/16+1/64+1/256+… convergent series of bended levels there is an invariant length > 0, which is resulted by an incomplete number of bended levels, because it logically can't reach the limit point, which its length is exactly 0.
4) By including the limit point as a part of the convergent series of bended levels, we actually claim that the invariant length > 0 is also equal to the length of the limit point, which is exactly 0, which is a contradiction notated as (X>0) = 0.
5) Conclusion:
X>0
X+X+X+X+… stands at the basis of a convergent series like 1/1+1/4+1/16+1/64+1/256+… and as a result this series is incomplete exactly because (X>0) = 0 is false.
The limit (which has length 0) or any bended location along the 1-dim element, do not contribute anything the invariant X>0 length of the 1-dim element.
The bended locations along X invariant length contributes only the convergence of X upon infinitely many bended levels, which are incomplete, exactly because X length is invariant under infinitely many convergent bended levels ((X>0) = 0 is not a part of the reasoning).
So The Man, after all 1+1+1+… is relevant under a convergent series like 1/1+1/4+1/16+1/64+1/256+…
You are right about that. You used the term "dragged point" in order to define a line.
In that case please show us how a dragged 0-dim, which is local by nature, can define a 1-dim, which is non-local by nature.
Inductive dimension
Main article: Inductive dimension
An inductive definition of dimension can be created as follows. Consider a discrete set of points (such as a finite collection of points) to be 0-dimensional. By dragging a 0-dimensional object in some direction, one obtains a 1-dimensional object. By dragging a 1-dimensional object in a new direction, one obtains a 2-dimensional object. In general one obtains an n+1-dimensional object by dragging an n dimensional object in a new direction.
The inductive dimension of a topological space may refer to the small inductive dimension or the large inductive dimension, and is based on the analogy that (n + 1)-dimensional balls have n dimensional boundaries, permitting an inductive definition based on the dimension of the boundaries of open sets.
Inductive dimension
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
In the mathematical field of topology, the inductive dimension of a topological space X is either of two values, the small inductive dimension ind(X) or the large inductive dimension Ind(X). These are based on the observation that, in n-dimensional Euclidean space Rn, (n − 1)-dimensional spheres (that is, the boundaries of n-dimensional balls) have dimension n − 1. Therefore it should be possible to define the dimension of a space inductively in terms of the dimensions of the boundaries of suitable open sets.
The small and large inductive dimensions are two of the three most usual ways of capturing the notion of "dimension" for a topological space, in a way that depends only on the topology (and not, say, on the properties of a metric space). The other is the Lebesgue covering dimension. The term "topological dimension" is ordinarily understood to refer to Lebesgue covering dimension. For "sufficiently nice" spaces, the three measures of dimension are equal.
Good morning The Man, your limit notion is only a part of your false dream.
No.
Incompleteness is exactly the notion that is not bounded by the Class notion.
Succession it a Trojan horse of any closed notion, exactly as the invariant X>0 is a trojan horse of the convergent series 1/1+1/4+1/16+1/64+1/256+… which is naturally opened (the inconsistency of (X>0)=0 is not a part of the consistent reasoning of the openness of any infinite collection).
Any chance that (X>0)=0 will not be a part of your reasoning, The Man?
The "sudden effect" of these topics is the result of your obsolete Limit-oriented knowledge of these topics.
Again generalization problems The Man?
The general thing here is Length.
By providing the proof without words (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_without_words) below, I clearly expose an anomaly at the Limit-oriented reasoning, where a convergent length is linked with an invariant length, over infinitely many convergent scale levels, and as a result the convergent series of that convergent length can't have 0 as a part of that series.
As a result we get infinitely many and incomplete convergent scale levels, that approaches but can't get length 0.

1) 1.2619… is not an accurate value, so you have no accurate sum of Koch's fractal dimension, and your Limit-oriented approach fails also in this case.
2) 1.2619… is some (and non-accurate) result of a particular logs's base, so also in this case 1.2619… does not provide the dimension of Koch's fractal.
do you have any understanding whatsoever of the impact fractals have had on the meaning of length and dimension?
Now in limiting that perimeter to a finite value (1 in this case) you wind up with an interesting problem. ...
EDIT:
So they are least upper bounds or greatest lower bounds, which are known also as the limits of a given set, which are not necessearly members of a given set.
It does not change the fact that the limit element is not the final element of an infinite collection, whether it is a member of a given set or not.
We are dealing here with a limit of a convergent series of added length, and I provided a proof without words in http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5704824&postcount=9004 which proves that an infinite convergent series has no limit.
This proof is an anomaly of standard math of this subject, and therefore cannot be comprehended by using the standard knowledge of this subject.
I think this should be noted as a red-letter day. Doron has added something interesting to the thread.
Nonsense.
Real universal notions are not limited to any particular language or form of expression.
So this time please translate the universal notion to plain English and do not hide behind your particular expression of it.
Wake up jsfisher it is already done at http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5704824&postcount=9004 (both by a diagram and a string of symbols) but you can't get it because your reasoning is closed under the expression of a sting of linear representation of symbols (which is nothing but a particular expression of a notion, and if a notion is limited to some particular representation, its universality is lost).
This is the whole idea of a universal notion, it is not limited to any particular expression of it.
By providing the proof without words....
The Man said:Since you bring up length anyway, the Koch curve has an infinite length giving the Koch snowflake an infinite perimeter, but it still encompasses a finite area.
All you did is to show that an infinite interpolation has no accurate sum (in your language it is about 1.814…), which is exactly the same result of my infinite converges series, which has an invariant length of Koch's fractal > 0 that can't reach the limit value, which is exactly 0.The Man said:In the actual construction of a Koch snowflake the perimeter increases by 1/3 with each iteration so the value of it’s perimeter is divergent not convergent.
Now in limiting that perimeter to a finite value (1 in this case) you wind up with an interesting problem. In that you have to scale down the construction (of an actual Koch snowflake) by 1/3 with each iteration to maintain your finite perimeter requirement. So you are simply scaling down your inscribing circle by 1/3 each time and thus end up with a convergent series with a common ration of 1/3 that starts at a value of 2**{[Tan(60)*1/6]-[Tan(30)*1/6]} or about 1.209 (the circumference of your first circle). Making the difference between the 3 times series and your original as 6**{[Tan(60)*1/6]-[Tan(30)*1/6]} (3 times circumference of your first circle) and thus the sum of your series as 3**{[Tan(60)*1/6]-[Tan(30)*1/6]} or about 1.814 (3/2 times the circumference of your first circle).
So your inclusion of your perimeter limited pseudo-Koch snowflake is entirely superfluous, as jsfisher has already noted.
The Man said:“1/1+1/4+1/16+1/64+1/256+…” is not “X+X+X+X+…” it is however X+X/4+X/16+X/64+X/256.…. Again “X+X+X+X+…”, having a common ratio equal to 1, would be divergent not convergent. Once again your assertions are easily demonstrated to be simply false.
The Man said:If “X” is “invariant” then a series of infinitely many “X”s is not convergent.
Exactly because the Koch's fractal has an invariant length > 0 , there are infinitely many bended levels that can't reach the value of the limit, which is exactly 0.The Man said:A limit contributes exactly that, a limitation. Exactly as your perimeter value always equals one is just your own limitation in this instance.
You do not get that in my model there is no dichotomy between invariant AND convergent length, as clearly shown and explained above, but you can't get this anomaly because you are using a model that is based on dichotomy.The Man said:No Doron even after all your nonsensical gibberish “1+1+1+…” is still only divergent and “1/1+1/4+1/16+1/64+1/256+…” only convergent.
Both Wiki sources are not based on the qualitative difference between the local and non-local atomic aspects that send at the basis of any complex like Set (for example).The Man said:It was already given to you before Doron.
Just another way of considering or defining the dimensions of an object or space in what you like to call “Standard Math”.
No, the incompleteness of a collection is not closed under Class, where a set is a particular case of a collection that is closed under Class.The Man said:Unbounded sets are a class of sets just as bounded sets are.
Since any infinite collection (where a set is a particular case of a collection that is closed under Class) is inherently incomplete (it has a “Trojan horse”), it does not have "closed gates".The Man said:No the inclusion in the set of the successor of any element in that set is specifically what closes the set under an operation of succession on any element of that set. If you think it is a “Trojan horse” that attacks your notions that’s just because you brought it in yourself.
Again, the "“sudden effect” is the result of your obsolete Limit-oriented notion of this subject.The Man said:“sudden effect”? So you do think that simply mentioning some topic out of hand has a "sudden effect" that you hope will confuse people into thinking you actually know something about that topic?
No, it is about an anomaly of the standard model, which shows how a length can be both invariant AND variant (converges, in this case) in a one model.The Man said:Again the appropriate term would be perimeter since more than one dimension is involved.
This is another example of your inability to understand the generalization of this subject.The Man said:“sum of Koch's fractal dimension”? Who said anything about a “sum of Koch's fractal dimension”, other than you. So now you are just going to deliberately confuse the Hausdorff dimension of a fractal with the sum of a convergent series? Yes “1.2619… is not an accurate value” that is why I said “or about 1.2619” the exact value is log(4)/Log(3) also as clearly given before.
Any infinite collection is inherently incomplete, or in other words, any given element of that collection is not its final element, and order has no impact on that fact.The Man said:If it is a member (and least upper bound) then it is the finail element of that collection.
On the contrary, your Limit-oriented notation, can't get the model where both invariant AND variant (converges, in this case) length are found.The Man said:No you didn’t, you simply imposed your own limit of the perimeter value for your superfluous pseudo Koch snowflake must be one and that still didn’t remove the limit of 0 for your scaled down inscribing circles or the sum of that series, which I have given you in my previous post.
A typical reply of a person that uses built-in dichotomy and Limit-oriented notions of this subject.The Man said:The “anomaly” is just in your brain Doron that has you preferring your own misinterpretation and misrepresentations and therefore you simply can not comprehend “the standard knowledge of this subject”.
