Welcome!

 Welcome to AlephGoogol, a site I started a few years back. Sadly, I haven't done much with it, in fact, I mostly forgot about it until a couple months ago.

Over the past several months I've been writing on another site I created. You can find it at EduGovNet.com. That site contains a couple dozen entries dedicated to proving results in math.

Topics include:

  • Algorithm runtime complexity
  • Group Theory
  • Ring Theory
  • Field Theory
  • Set Theory (we prove, for example, that all sets -- even infinite sets -- are strictly smaller than their power sets)
  • Finding the nearest great circle to a given set of points on the globe.
  • Proving that the sum, 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/5 + ... + 1/p + ... of the reciprocals of all of the prime numbers is infinite.
Feel free to check it out! It's a lot better than this site 😅.

What is Aleph Googol?

Welcome to this blog. I'm not sure how to make a landing page explaining what this site is about, and perhaps that's a good thing. What this site is about now might not be what it will be about next year, which might not be what it's about the following year. Etc... Let me at least explain a little about the title. Aleph Googol is an infinite number. Does that mean it's infinity?  No. It's just one of the infinite numbers that mathematicians have been studying for well over a hundred years now. It's written: \( \aleph_{10^{100}} \), and represents the \(10^{100}+1 \)-st infinite cardinal. Why the \(+1\)? Because infinite cardinals start with \(\aleph_0\), making \(\aleph_1\) the second infinite cardinal. Will this blog actually cover much more of this material? I'm not sure.

Minimalism and Travel

 I should mention right away that this entry doesn't really have anything whatsoever to do with the Edo-Tokyo Museum. There, that's out of the way. Whew... It's somewhat interesting to me that while travel blogs and minimalism blogs are both popular, their intersection probably wouldn't be. At least one of the ways of taking their intersection. Let's keep in mind that we're dealing with concepts and not mathematical sets, so we have to allow for some ambiguity. The more obvious way of dealing with "minimalism and travel" would be something akin to "traveling minimalistically" (if that is even a word -- spell check doesn't think so). I.e. "traveling on a budget." That's somewhat interesting, but has probably been done to death. Hasn't everyone backpacked through Europe while a poor private (expensive) liberal arts college undergrad? It's hack! Everyone's been to Vietnam, right? The less obvious way of interpreting...

This Title has Nine Words (When We Add "Meditation")

Hold on folks, this entry is mostly going to be about itself. Excited? Good. We've only just gotten started and we're already off to a fantastic start. How far have we made it yet? Well, we're not even finished with the first paragraph. How about now that we've started the second paragraph? This is even wilder than before. We're already several words into this paragraph and even more words into this entry now. Wow. Right now you're probably thinking that this entry could use a picture. I agree. There's a beautiful image from Kyoto, Japan (not to be mistaken for Kyoto, Nebraska). Notice how the curvy rooftops look so beautiful. Who would have ever thought to build things this way? Who would have guessed that making things like that would have turned out awesome? I could just travel there some day. I think I really could. But let's not get distracted by this! This is not the subject of this entry... You're here to read this entry discuss itself and I...
