Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016 Using the idea of regularisation of singularities due to the variability of the fundamental constants in cosmology we study the cyclic universe models. We find two models of oscillating and non-singular mass density and pressure ("non-singular" bounce) regularised by varying gravitational constant $G$ despite the scale factor evolution is oscillating ...

Conceptual Challenges on the Road to the Multiverse
Universe, 2019 The current debate about a possible change of paradigm from a single universe to a multiverse scenario could have deep implications on our view of cosmology and of science in general. These implications therefore deserve to be analyzed from a fundamental

, 2023 This article follows the philosophical line of mathematical pluralism to make two points: that if there isa view that mathematics is a basis for sciences including social sciences, and if there is a pluralism in mathematics, then this implies a model of the society as a pluralist one.

A graceful multiversal link of particle physics to cosmology [PDF]
, 2007 In this paper we work out a multiverse scenario whose physical characteristics enable us to advance the following the conjecture that whereas the physics of particles and fields is confined to live in the realm of the whole multiverse formed by finite ...

Complementarity in the multiverse [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2009 In the multiverse, as in AdS, light-cones relate bulk points to boundary scales. This holographic UV-IR connection defines a preferred global time cut-off that regulates the divergences of eternal inflation. An entirely different cut-off, the causal patch, arises in the holographic description of black holes.

Mythology, Weltanschauung, symbolic universe and states of consciousness
HTS Teologiese Studies/Theological Studies, 2016 This article investigates whether different religious (mythological) worldviews can be described as alternative and altered states of consciousness (ASCs).

Could Our Universe Have Been Initiated Intentionally: An Epistemological Framework [PDF]
Философия и космология, 2023 The possibility that our universe was initiated intentionally is a compelling philosophical and scientific question that can be evaluated probabilistically based on four primary considerations: finetuning in our universe, hypotheses about the multiverse,

Interacting universes and the cosmological constant [PDF]
, 2012 We study some collective phenomena that may happen in a multiverse scenario. First, it is posed an interaction scheme between universes whose evolution is dominated by a cosmological constant. As a result of the interaction, the value of the cosmological

, 2016 The forcing method is a powerful tool to prove the consistency of set-theoretic assertions relative to the consistency of the axioms of set theory. Laver's theorem and Bukovsk 's theorem assert that set-generic extensions of a given ground model constitute a quite reasonable and sufficiently general class of standard models of set-theory.
