A Proof of the CTMU - Sketch

The CTMU is a theoretic model proposed by Christopher Langan. More information on it can be found at: https://ctmucommunity.org/wiki/

The core statement of the CTMU is:

The Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe is a language that describes itself.

Another statement is:

The Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe is equivalent to Reality.

From this follows:

The universe is a language that describes itself.

A language is a set of words that are generated using a set of rules called a formal grammar. A language can describe other languages - for example, English can describe French - and it can also describe itself - English can describe English.

There is nothing that exists outside of the universe - everything that exists does so inside the universe. For this reason whatever describes the universe, as well as the language using which it does it, exists inside the universe. Therefore it it is legitimate to state that the universe describes itself.

Since the language using which the universe describes itself must also be part of the universe, it is legitimate to state that the universe is a language that describes itself. In addition, anything something describes something else or itself must be a language.

Note that the CTMU first makes a statement about the model of the universe. A language by definition is a model. Only in the second quoted statement does the CTMU say that this model is equivalent to reality. It is perfectly believable that the model of the universe is a language.

For more information on formal languages see this introductory paper: https://www.hugi.scene.org/adok/math/new_math10.pdf

Conclusion: Anything that logically follows from the statement "The universe is a language that describes itself" is absolute truth.

    I believe that THE UNIVERSE CONSISTS OF AN INHERENT LANGUAGE THAT CONTROLS INGREDIENTS OF THE UNIVERSE. ...

A Proof of the Riemann Hypothesis

A Proof of the Riemann Hypothesis By Iakovos Koukas (April 2024) Abstract: The Riemann Hypothesis, proposed by Bernhard Riemann in 1859, remains one of the most profound unsolved conjectures in mathematics. This paper presents a comprehensive proof of the Riemann Hypothesis, through eight steps that use mathematical tools from complex analysis, number theory, and mathematical logic. Beginning with the foundational definition of the Riemann zeta function, I extend its domain analytically, investigate its behavior within the critical strip, and use various mathematical techniques to establish the distribution of its non-trivial zeros. Through analytical reasoning and careful application of mathematical principles, I demonstrate that all non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function lie on the critical line, thereby proving the Riemann Hypothesis. Introduction: The Riemann Hypothesis is a conjecture concerning the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function, a central object in

Symbiont Conversion Theory

Abstract Symbiont Conversion Theory is a new scientific theory, summarizing and generalizing efforts that have been made by various researchers in the past years; it could even be perceived as a new scientific paradigm. This theory states that microorganisms and cells which are commonly considered to display parasitic behaviour can be "educated" and transformed into symbionts. This is not just a hypothesis but a theory since there is already evidence that proves that this is possible. The primary motivation for developing this theory is the failure of classical approaches to therapy of cancer and infectious diseases that follow the paradigm "destroy and kill". It is common knowledge about medical doctors that chemotherapy and radiation therapy have detrimental side effects on healthy, functional tissue, and also that antibiotics can harm benevolent cells. These negative side effects can possibly be avoided by the new approach of treating parasitic diseases by conver
