(Work on the Lambda-CDM metric)

The FLRW metric with two spatial dimensions suppressed is

Ignoring the effects of radiation in the early universe and assuming k = 0 and w = −1, the Lambda-CDM scale factor is

Putting (for reasons that will emerge later)

and

,

the Lambda-CDM scale factor may be rewritten as

Formally expanding the binomial and simplifying gives

Ratio of successive terms = which tends to as n tends to infinity.


Best Current Numerical Values

The WMAP five-year report gives

(Mp = megaparsec, Ga = gigayear).

These give

and


The path of the light ray satisfies .

An Apparent Contradiction (Unfortuanately this Word file contains special characters that won't print here. )


The following refers to "The Emperor's New Mind", OUP 1989(99), chapter 4, section 3 (Gödel’s Theorem). On page 140, there is a statement, derived on the previous pages: ~x[x proves Pk(k)] = Pk(k) With the simple substitution Pk(k) = S made to simplify the analysis and since k doesn’t feature explicitly in what follows, this is my assumption 00. There are two other assumptions: 01 and 02. From these three assumptions a contradiction emerges on lines 09 and 17. The question is: where and why does the contradiction arise? The following uses a modified version of the scheme used in the OU course “Number Theory & Mathematical Logic”.
