Intersection of Open Sets in the Reals

DOWNLOAD

We demonstrate that while the intersection of a finite number of open sets in $\mathbb R$ remains open in $\mathbb R$, the same cannot be universally said for intersections involving an infinite number of open sets. An illustrative example is presented to highlight this distinction.

A hole in the black hole

[microresearch]

DOWNLOAD

Supposedly, matter falls inside the black hole whenever it reaches its event horizon. The Planck scale, however, imposes a limit on how much matter can occupy the center of a black hole. It is shown here that the density of matter exceeds Planck density in the singularity, and as a result, spacetime tears apart. After the black hole is formed, matter flows from its center to its border due to a topological force; namely, the increase on the tear of spacetime due to its limit, until it reaches back to the event horizon, generating the firewall phenomenon. We conclude that there is no spacetime inside black holes. We propose a solution to the black hole information paradox.
