The Instantaneous Creation of Infinite Space

OK. So I can type faster than I can think.
Here's my CORRECTION:

The Instantaneous Creation of Infinite Space

The 3-space in which we live is one of an infinite variety of possible
geometries. http://arxiv.org/PS_cache/gr-qc/pdf/9804/9804006.pdf. No
mortal can identify the right spatial form. The Big Bang creation
story comes in two incomprehensible versions. No human knows which
version is correct. This thread is a request that knowledgeable
mathematicians answer questions as simply as possible on the very
essence of mathematical cosmology and what is knowable and provable.

The most delightful creation story is that, in an instant, out of
nothing, infinite space suddenly came to be. The infinite and
everywhere appeared instantly, inexplicably; and time was also born.
The second creation story is a plain and simple alternative to the
first. Space (the everywhere) was born finite, with zero volume and
grew from that; and time also came to be.

The birthing of geometry in time has associated with that space and
time, a flow of idealized, mathematical trajectories. Each trajectory
is easily pictured as the spatial trace of an abstract idealized clock
moving effortlessly through that geometric space, parameterized by its
own clock time. Each clock, therefore, is defined by a timelike
geodesic.

The most glaring fact that I see in the simultaneous emergence of
space and time is the existence of the above mentioned global flow of
abstract coordinate clocks, all initially synchronized by God Himself.
Obviously, attempting mathematical physics by coordinatizing space
and time, if space is infinite and flat, can not produce the Lorentz
transformation. It isn't the Creator's choice. It doesn't harmonize
with creation. Going the route of conventional special relativity
would imply that imagining an event at some time in one frame of
reference would necessarily translate to the same event happening
in another frame before time even began. It's against nature.

Imagine the second creation story and the birthing of a hypersphere
(or projective 3-space if you prefer) from an initial inexplicable
point. The symmetry of this space demands a corresponding symmetry
in the global multidirectional flow of abstract coordinate clocks.
To understand this symmetry physically, I wish to understand motion
generally. My most stubborn and longstanding expectation is that
all motions in spatially compact spacetimes have extremely absolute
characteristics, whereas, all motion in spatially infinite spacetime
is relative.

Therefo I would like to define a geodesic coordinate system in
space as a flow of our abstract idealized clocks such that all those
clocks travel the same distances as a function of clock time. I also
like the requirement that nearby clocks in the flow all move in
approximately the same direction. What are all the global geodesic
coordinate systems for an expanding circle, sphere and hypersphere?

Within FRW cosmological models you have those two choices (with a
sub-choice for the first: flat or hyperbolic 3-space). But who's to say
those models are all there is? In particular, it is expected that a real
theory of quantum gravity will have major things to say about this, and
presumably the evolution of the cosmos at early times will be
significantly different in such a theory....

Sure. You can imagine such clocks.

Huh??? Those clocks "exist" only in your imagination, and it is up to
YOU to synchronize them. Go ahead -- it's easy to IMAGINE how to do
that.... But the only "God" here is YOU.


Obviously, attempting mathematical physics by coordinatizing space
and time, if space is infinite and flat, can not produce the Lorentz
transformation.

I have no idea what you mean by that. The Lorentz transformation holds
between any pair of locally-inertial coordinates. That, of course, is
true in any Lorentzian manifold.


It isn't the Creator's choice.

Speak for yourself -- because YOU are the "creator" here. This whole
discussion is about figments of your imagination. That is, of course,
what all mathematical models of physics are....


It doesn't harmonize
with creation.

Why not? -- You don't like your own creation?


Going the route of conventional special relativity
would imply that imagining an event at some time in one frame of
reference would necessarily translate to the same event happening
in another frame before time even began.

But you're imagining a manifold that is not consistent with the
requirements of SR, so why should one be concerned that attempting to
apply SR yields nonsense?


It's against nature.

"Nature" of course has nothing whatsoever to do with this, as you are
not discussing the world we inhabit, you are discussing a figment of
your own imagination.


Imagine the second creation story and the birthing of a hypersphere
(or projective 3-space if you prefer) from an initial inexplicable
point. The symmetry of this space demands a corresponding symmetry
in the global multidirectional flow of abstract coordinate clocks.

Why?

In particular: all you have specified is that space is
a 3-sphere; that is a topological condition, and is not
"symmetry" in any usual sense, which is normally expressed
as a set of Killing vectors, which obviously require a
connection on the manifold.


To understand this symmetry physically, I wish to understand motion
generally. My most stubborn and longstanding expectation is that
all motions in spatially compact spacetimes have extremely absolute
characteristics, whereas, all motion in spatially infinite spacetime
is relative.

Here your "most stubborn and longstanding expectation" is clearly wrong.

Counterexample: consider the flat and hyperbolic FRW manifolds. Just as
in the spherical FRW manifolds, the cosmic time coordinate is expressed
in the proper time since the initial singularity of each and every dust
particle. That cosmic time coordinate is "absolute" in the sense that it
is unique and the same for all observers, and yields a similarly
"absolute" spatial structure relative to which all motion can be referenced.


It is true that certain manifolds of GR have an "absolute" spatial
structure wrt which motion can be referenced. This is invariably due to
those manifolds having appropriate symmetries (e.g. a timelike Killing
vector), or appropriate other structure (e.g. a congruence of timelike
geodesics as in the FRW manifolds). Note that topology alone is not
sufficient for this, you need some additional structure to have any sort
of "absolute" reference (and beware of that word -- it has meanings
which don't apply here).

Topology constrains the metric applied to a manifold, but
does not determine it. In your SxR toy model you can apply
a metric that determines a specific "absolute frame". But
I could apply a different metric to the same manifold that
determines a different "absolute frame". The topology
requires there be such an "absolute frame", but does not
in any way determine which frame is the "absolute" one.


Therefo I would like to define a geodesic coordinate system in
space as a flow of our abstract idealized clocks such that all those
clocks travel the same distances as a function of clock time.

That is the usual thing to do in FRW manifolds, and is called "cosmic
time". Note it applies in all FRW manfiolds, including those with
non-compact 3-spaces.


I also
like the requirement that nearby clocks in the flow all move in
approximately the same direction.

That is also true in the FRW manifolds for those "cosmic clocks".


What are all the global geodesic
coordinate systems for an expanding circle, sphere and hypersphere?

There are none. It simply is not possible to cover S^n with a single
coordinate system, for any n0. Note this is a topological theorem,
unrelated to any metric.


If you are truly interested in topics like this, you
need to study geometry. For starters I suggest:
Frankel, _The_Geometry_of_Physics_.

Anyone on this list know of Robert Herrmann's work?

21. (T - G -T) Monograph M1
Solutions to the "General Grand Unification Problem ," and the
Questions. "How Did Our Universe Come Into Being?" and "Of What is
Empty Space Composed?".

Presented before the Mathematical Association of America at Western
Maryland College, 12 NOV 1994.

This presents the first solution to these Patton and Wheeler questions
as well as the basic question "Is physics legislated by a cosmogony."
These questions, and others, are specifically answered by first
generating a falsifiable cosmogony via mathematical modeling. Since
such a cosmogony is capable of generating universes, not just the one
in which we dwell, and their respective "physics," then the General
Grand Unification model, with certain exceptions, must essentially be
explanatory in its final form for it must predict the behavior of all
natural-systems that reside in each universe. Abstract 1 Also see the
