Ultranumbers

DOWNLOAD

We introduce a set of abstract objects, the so-called ultranumbers, in order to generalize different classes of numbers. The idea is to find equations with nonexistent solutions in the original set, and then use them to extend the numerical system.

Is there a proof for the (non)existence of a formula for prime numbers?

[question]

DOWNLOAD

We discuss about whether it is possible or not to prove or disprove the existence of a formula for the prime numbers.

Transdenumerability of the reals

DOWNLOAD

We show that the real numbers are transdenumerable by setting a one to one map with the set of the transfinite ordinals introduced by Cantor.

On the arithmetic of automated theorem proving

DOWNLOAD

We propose a model to assign prime numbers to axioms and theorems, then by comparing equivalent numbers, it results in new equivalent theorems.

Complex complex numbers

[original idea]

DOWNLOAD

We apply in the complex numbers the same line of thought that led to the very creation of the complex themselves. In addition, we consider multiple imaginary numbers and generalize both ideas altogether.
