4th dimension

People tell me they have trouble understanding the concept of multiple dimensions. We supposedly live in a 4 dimensional world (the 4th being time). Dimension as mathematicians use the term means orthogonal. Each orthogonal means 90 degrees away. Each higher dimension is orthogonal to the lower dimension. A line is one dimension a square is two dimensions and a cube...

The world we live in is called the Three Dimensional World or more commonly known as the 3-D World. What is meant by this is that our world(the world we can see and observe) is made up 3 things…

4th dimension explained by a high-school student. There are many theories out there. This is one of those theories.

Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions In 1884, an English schoolmaster named Edwin A. Abott wrote a satirical novel titled Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions. While the novel’s original inten…

Let's talk about the 4th dimension

Most people talk about the fifth dimension because it is the first of the non-physical dimensions and therefore poses the most excitement and wonder at our current level of consciousness. What is o…

Shadow of a rotating cube The animations below accompany an introductory talk on high-dimensional geometry. Mathematically, the second was made by putting a "light source" at a point (0,0,0,h)(0,0,0,h) (with h>0h>0) and sending each point (x,y,z,w)(x,y,z,w) (with w<hw<h) to hh−w(x,y,z)hh−w(x,y,z).

Living in a 3-dimensional world, we can easily visualize objects in 2 and 3 dimensions. But as a mathematician, playing with only 3 dimensions is limiting, Dr. Henry Segerman laments. An Assistant Professor in Mathematics at Oklahoma State University, Segerman spoke to Duke students and faculty on visualizing 4-dimensional space as part of the PLUM lecture series on […]

The fourth dimension is a hypothetical spatial dimension. Though picturing the fourth dimension can be difficult, one way to think...
