Ah, right now I understand your point. If the mathematical multiverse hipothesis is correct, in a certain way, not even today there is time neither init neither end. time is an observation made by living beings inside. We live in a mathematical equation that has no such thing as time when looked from outside (the "bird view" according with Max Tegmark). But our inside view is temporal and we extrapolate other spatio-temporal locations of the universe in a timeful way. A circle has no time neither have the M theory that is supposed to be isomorphic with our universe. (if mathematical existence is true). But to be observable, with living beings inside, a mathematical structure must have a gradient of entropy, among other things (and that is what I present in the link). The direction of that gradient is observed as time. The location of the minimum entropy is called "beginning" by such living beings, but that is only the inside view.
Look for example the parabolic trajectory of a cannon ball. For the mathematician, the trajectory is a timeless equation of the height as a function of the length, with the angle, gravitation constant etc as parameters. For other observer, inside the ball that don´t know that equation, he only observe that he has a velocity and direction, and that the earth attract it with a certain acceleration. he deduces a differential equation with time as parameter to know where he will be at each moment. 2014/1/23, LizR <[email protected]>: > On 23 January 2014 06:38, Edgar L.
