Aug 29, 2020 at 10:58 comment added Nikolai Zaitsev Ben, Takahiro - slowly I got into this subject and agree with your points. Black hole singularity violates homeomorphism. Connection between black holes and quantum mechanics becomes more interesting if to consider virtual black holes pointed out by Hawking: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_black_hole
Nov 26, 2017 at 22:14 comment added Nikolai Zaitsev I did not assume that. However, intuitively I see that homeomorphic transformation should preserve all conservation laws - energy, momentum, space, rotation etc.
Jan 22, 2017 at 19:15 comment added Takahiro Waki It doen't mean that GR must be standard.
Jan 15, 2017 at 21:34 comment added Nikolai Zaitsev I belong to high energy physics and, therefore, you can consider me as a vulgar mathematician. However, want to ask two questions: did we have 1) quantum mechanics and 2) black holes at the state of T=0 (BigBang) ?
Jan 15, 2017 at 17:12 comment added user21349 If the Universe was born from a single 1-connected point and all the following expansion has no singularities, i.e. can be considered as homeomorphic transformation, then the Universe has no reason to become n-connected. Singularities in GR do not have a well-defined geometry, topology, or dimensionality, and they are not point-sets, so it doesn't make sense to talk about the big bang as "a single 1-connected point." Your description of the conditions for the topology to remain unchanged also doesn't sound right to me. See arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/9406053 .
Jan 15, 2017 at 17:08 comment added user21349 The Maldacena-Susskind paper appears to have nothing to do with what you're saying. It's about a cosmology containing an Einstein-Rosen bridge. It's also about quantum gravity, not classical gravity.
