Markus, please read my post instead of scanning it. You will see clearly that Jordan is not well known because "Jordan joined the
Nazi party and became a
brownshirt, a political affiliation which isolated him within the physics community." "Had Jordan not joined the Nazi party, it is conceivable that he could have shared the 1954
Nobel Prize in Physics awarded to
Max Born. Bernstein (2005)
[1] and Schroer
[2]." "He secured election to the
Bundestag standing with the
conservative Christian Democratic Union. In 1957 Jordan supported the arming of the
Bundeswehr with
tactical nuclear weapons by the
Adenauer government, while the
Göttinger 18 (which included Born and Heisenberg) issued the
Göttinger Manifest in protest. This and other issues were to further strain his relationships with his former friends and colleagues."
His math is in general use today: "Jordan algebras have since been applied in
projective geometry and
number theory."
I remember nothing from my reading of a few years ago to suggest Jordan either supported or denounced Bangism, and I never hinted that he was opposed to Bangism. However, his statement, "A star can be made out of nothing at all..." suggests a singularity was not needed for creation of matter. It was reading other sources (not Wiki) that suggested or stated that Jordan believed matter can come into existance through quantum fluctuations. I suggest that God created matter through a process in which either his voice or a wave of his hand (for instance) initiated quantum fluctuations, like spreading grass seen onto a lawn.
In my view, some of the fluctuations created matter-antimatter, some created anti-gravity bubbles known as voids. I believe the voids' growth can be measured by temperature rises in the compressed space immediately surrounding voids. I believe my idea is at this time, apart from the possibility of creation through
baryon acoustic oscillations the only idea which explains the existance of voids and their apparent shapes (roughly bubble-like.) I believe my idea is based on observations, observations of voids, as well as observations that other models fail to explain the shape or even the existance of voids, and particularly why a void is the largest known structure in the universe. That's all I have at this time. I began my thoughts with Jordan's statement that matter can be created from nothing.
I also believe Jordan is not well known because his statement proves that singularity is not needed, which then gives rise to the question as to why singularity was ever thought necessary in the first place, other than the observable universe seems in general to consists of matter which on large scale flies apart from matter, as if from an explosion, which was what the original concept of Bang was, that original concerpt needed a point source to originate the explosion from.
One more thing .. I believe there may be a possibility that the expansion of voids will orient galaxies to the void .. I would look for spirals lying parallel to the border of the void.
