what's the genus of the universe?

[AntonioLao]

This can only indicate that it is possible to freeze light and to stop its motion.

Has it been proven that it's impossible to freeze light?

Has it been prove that it's impossible to freeze light?

Just the opposite happened. Light was frozen by scientists a few years ago. See the article at

The 1st hole of the universe is the Big Bang singularity. I don't know what's the second hole?

About the Origin or Genus of the Universe, the Big Bang.....
The Taylor series function of expansion, as examined in Article15
http://www.toequest.com/forum/mathematics-articles/427-the-pure-mathematics-space-time.html
Shows mankinds view of our universe from within this function of expansion.
Within this expansion function is a definition of time itself, expressed in a MacLaurin series form.
Any point (t) in Linear Time, is the natural log of this series.
Time=ln[1+t+(t^2/2!)+(t^3/3!)+(t^4/4!)+(t^5/5!)+(t^6/6!)+....+(t^N/N!)]
This function defines linear time in our universe, as generated by the function of expansion of our universe.

The preliminary discusion of expansion within the article, covered the 3rd domain of expansion(Euclidean space) and the view from this domain into expansion.
Little discussion was stated about the first two domains of expansion....
Expansion=Volume(t)+SurfaceArea(t^2/2)+........

The first domain states that our universe is a volume of linear time,Vol(t)...
in union with the second domain, a surface area of time,SA(t^2/2)...
within is Euclidean space, mankind and their views of the universe...

The expansion fuction of our universe implies that, we are inside a 'bubble' of linear time,
encased with a 'membrane' of time, a 2 dimensional surface area of time, within is our safe Euclidean space...

Our geometric shape of our universe, could be much like M theory states, toroid, conical, basically any shape you might imagine...

I prefer the view of spherical for the moment, but it doesn't matter in what shape you wish to view our universe...

Within mankinds view, we see and use the inverses of 1,2,3,and 4 dimensional time, comparing them to units of distance to note Velocity,Acceleration,Impulse, and Flux...
We view, from within the 'bubble' the inverses of the subsets of 4 dimensional time, and we use them in our computations for engineering and other sciences.

Our expanding universe, as mankind observes, seems to be a merger of DISTANCE and 4 Dimensional time.....
This merger will create a taylor series function of EXPANSION......

When we then consider our genus, it is the boundary and the void outside our 'bubble', that needs consideration...
AND the concept that we are only within ONE 'bubble', that there could be many more...

Supposition
Our universe is not the ONLY universe, it did not exist at first, then an event, linear time passes, here we are...
Over ALL of time, I don't believe it happened ONLY once...

Lets consider that it hasn't happened yet, then we have the fortunate view of many 'bubbles', separated by void...
On the outside of the 'bubbles', a void of only distance, darkness, no light, mass, time, nothing but infinite distance, within the void.

Then an event, two 'bubbles', close in distance, 'membrane' boudaries momentarily contact...
Within the void of infinite distance, there appears an instance of a point in time, that an intersection of two 'membranes' at that point, creates a 4 dimension time point...

Within the void, from the point of 'membrane' contact, comes the union of Distance and 4 dimensional time...
A TAYLOR SERIES function of EXPANSION....BEGINS....
We would now be viewing a big bang within the void, the inital creation of a new 'bubble' of linear time,
encased within a 'membrane' surface area, a new Euclidean space, expansion function of spacetime...
The birth of a universe of expansion...a 'bubble' in an ocean of 'bubbles'...'quantum foam?'...and the evolution of life?...

This view of the genus is generated, from the time domain,(MacLaurin series).
I believe this to be the before and after picture, based on TIME..........q7
