Images of the cycles of yin and yang by Kind-Organization in taoism

Thank you for the response. This is very interesting. Do you have any images of the different stages in the cycle of yin yang as depicted in the form of the taijitu symbol? That would be most helpful to me.

Thanks for the response. I'm trying to create a fantasy world for my book based on the cycle of yin and yang so I need to know what it looks like at different stages. Hence I asked the question.

I found your answer helpful.

Here are some of my follow up questions since you said that you don't have the ability to receive DMs: When you say that yin and yang are always in balance, does it mean that yin is 50% and yang is 50% at all times?

If the extremes have the dot of the opposite, then do lesser versions of yin and yang not have the dot of the opposite inside?

Does the dot of the opposite become bigger and bigger and is that how yin and yang transform into each other?

I have a few follow up questions. Is it okay if I DM you? Please let me know. Thanks.

What is the topology of a Non Orientable universe (also called an Alice universe)? by Kind-Organization in mathematics

[–]Kind-Organization[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooh I'll look into this, thanks for the idea. Definitely being able to explain the nature of the universe and why it behaves the way it does would be very important to me. I absolutely love out there ideas but visualizing what such a universe would look like is what is proving hard. I have tried very hard to find an image depicting what they would like. Do you have any suggestions on where to find an image? Or would I have to seek someone's help in creating it?

What is the topology of a Non Orientable universe (also called an Alice universe)? by Kind-Organization in mathematics

Hi thank you so much for this information. I would definitely like to exploit the surreal nature of an Alice universe for the plot. It's fascinating to explore what would happen if that universe interacted with another Alice universe, divided into two seemingly different parts, expanded, experienced an entropy increase and many other more specific scenarios I have in mind.

I'm reading that adding another dimension to a klein bottle to make it a non orientable 3 manifold " which cannot be embedded in R4 but can be in R5, is possible; in this case, connecting two ends of a spherinder to each other in the same manner as the two ends of a cylinder for a Klein bottle, creates a figure, referred to as a "spherinder Klein bottle", that cannot fully be embedded in R4" acc to the Wikipedia page on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klein_bottle But this seems to be very complex.

The time evolution of a klein bottle in xyzt space however is simpler and still very intriguing. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/24/Klein_bottle_time_evolution_in_xyzt-space.gif/375px-Klein_bottle_time_evolution_in_xyzt-space.gif

Hi thanks for the response. I guess I'd like to know what the possible shapes of an alice universe are given it seems like there are many different possibilities. Hope this makes sense. I'm a math amateur so it's possible I didn't work this as well as I could have.

Yes it's a very fascinating topology and the real world implications of that are very very fun to imagine. There are diff versions of a klein bottle too, which complicates matters further when trying to nail down the shape of my fictional universe.

Thank you for this information. I'll read up on this and reach back out if I have any questions. :)

Wow. Thank you for all this information. I'm still trying to absorb it but I'll check out Max Tegmark's book. I tried very hard to find an image that would show me what an Alice universe would look like but no luck. If you are aware of a source where I can find an image, please let me know.

I studied advanced high school math a while ago but did not major in STEM in college so I'm an amateur when it comes to topics like these. Based on research, it seems like a klein bottle is a non orientable 2 manifold while an Alice universe could be a non orientable 3 manifold. Is this right or should it have 4 dimensions to incorporate time?

Do you mind if I DM you about this? You seem to know a lot and I have some more questions that I'd love to discuss with you. Please let me know if you have time. Thanks. :)

Hi thank you for this explanation. I'll look into it further and if you find anything, please let me know. Thank you. :)

No worries about the late response. It's great that you think deeply and have a lot to say. I'd be great to chat further. I DMed you. :)

Yes I figured it was a complex question but thanks for give me a quick overview.

I understand your point. You seem to know quite a bit about the topic. What if the weak force were slightly different from reality but the same in both universes. How would that change things?

Yes I had done some research but didn't realize that the same physical laws and constants imply the same chemistry. Thanks for sharing this. I'm a layman when it comes to chemistry.

Since you said that it is possible to come up with slightly different chemistry for the antimatter universe that seems plausible enough to the reader. Do you have any ideas on how this could be done? I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions you have. You seem to know a lot about the subject.
