The universe is the round surface of the 4th dimension or hypersphere
surface.

No. The 4th dimension is a real space dimension.

A dimension doesn't have a surface.

3-D, 4-D..
====================..
1.
Is it hard to see the three dimension. . .???
No.
There are an independent space and independent time:
We notice it on our planet – Earth. It is a 3D space.
The space (Newtonian) around us is 3D,
and our eyes allow us to see this 3D.
If we take Descartes coordinates plus time,
when it is possible to say:
4D = 3D space + 1D time.
We live in this 4D and are aware of it.
2.
Minkowski tried to understand SRT using 4-D space.
Now we say :
" that it is impossible to see the fourth dimension.. ." Why?
Maybe because: we are in a "special kind of intelligence
is variably called schizophrenia. "
What is the reason of this illness?
The reason is hidden in abstract thinking about :
abstract ideal gas, abstract black body,
abstract inertial systems, abstract virtual particles,
abstract zoo of antiparticles, abstract
Schrödinger’s cat in a dark matter ,
abstract 4D, 5D, 11D, 27D , and etc......
Is there a medicine for this illness?
Of course.
On the one recipe is written " Vacuum: T=0K",
On the other recipe is written " Light quanta".
If we don’t take this medicine our human society
will remain in the state of "schizophrenia". Save us God.
3.
Is it hard to see the fourth dimension. . .???
No.
There is simultaneous union of space and time
(negative four-dimensional /Minkowski / space).
Herman Minkowski :
“ Henceforth, space by itself, and time by itself,
are doomed to fade away into mere shadows,
and only a kind of union of the two will
preserve an independent reality.”
Question.
What is the “a kind of union of the two “?
The answer.
It is Vacuum. T=0K.
It is the space between milliards of billions Galaxies.
And only this space has “ a kind of union “ and has
negative quantity - negative temperature. And it is
negative four-dimensional /Minkowski / space .
The detected material mass of the
matter in the Universe is so small (the average density
of all substance in the Universe is approximately
p=10^-30 g/sm^3) that the gravitation law doesn't work.
Astronomers and astrophysicists know about this fact and
therefore (to save the gravitation law) invented new matter
a "dark matter", a new energy a “dark energy” and another
abstract objects. This “ invention” is only a result of our
mentality , which says: ” If in a theory you meet infinity it
means the theory is nonsense”. It is very hard to take that
the Universe is infinite. It is no easy matter to give up
a lifetime of habit .
4.
On my opinion, the Vacuum is the flat Pseudo-Euclid's space,
the Vacuum is the Minkowski 4-D continuum of space/time.

On my opinion it is impossible to use GRT to Universe as
a whole. The Newton/ Einstein's gravitation laws are correct
only in the local parts of Vacuum. The Universe / Vacuum
as a whole is endless.

Jeeze, I hate it when Mitch starts to quote things that are true! He
must have been reading my website again.

As for you Mike3, your assignment is to go read "Flatland" again. As
usual, Einstein and his goofy mathematics has totally brought thinking
to a dead stop. In this case by the use of the bogus "space-time".
Fact is that ALL higher dimensions (ones you can't see) will manifest
in the observable dimensions as time (the actions of phenomena).
Obviously nobody here has any desire to actually think about these
things.

No, seriously. Can you define "round"? I mean with a mathematical test
which we can apply to some geometric figure and get an answer: "is" or
"is not" round?

I've always considered a egg to be round. It has a
continuous surface with no angularity anywhere.

Woe the poor bird that has to lay an egg with
angularity on the surface. Evolution is kind
sometimes.

But an egg has a changing curve.

Calculus says nothing of the sort; it is a calculation
method (or, if one wants to be a literalist, little pebbles
in sand grooves ;-) ).

Best I can do is take a point on a 2-D surface embedded
in a Euclidean 3-space and touch it with a nearby sphere
of some radius r > 0; if it touches at only that point,
it's round (there are usually 2 spheres). One might ask
as to whether r is constant.

It looks like the concept is easily generalizable to
N dimensions.

Of course you may simply be misusing the term "round" as
a synonym for "curved".

That's part way there. There is a more precise definition of how a curve
changes to still be thought of as "round".

There's also the property of having a closed surface. IOW, a parabola is
curved, but not really round.

But I doubt Mitch/BURT has any clues about this, much less the ability
to grasp the math and topology behind such explainations.

This is all only shadows on the wall (Allegory of the Cave)
but Mitch/BURT thinks it is the reality as created by his
personal God. That being said, the math and topology would
mean nothing to him if he ever did understand it, nor
does anything beyond his personal "written for the masses
science" opinions.
