On the Correspondence between Mathematics and Physics

John Karpinsky May 24, 2020

There is an ongoing question in Physics as to why Mathematics describes the physical universe so effectively. Mathematicians are mystified as well. This paper is an attempt to show an approach that might illuminate this relationship and enable progress toward some answers to this question.

Definitions

In order talk about this subject, We need some new words to describe Mathematics. The problem with most presently defined words is that they assume a tangible substance to intangible entities. Each of these words defines intangible corollaries to tangible entities.

The words and their corollaries are:

Inistence — -> Existence

Inist — — - → Exist

Inistent — → Existent

I think the definitions of these words are almost self evident from their corollaries, but I will try to define them anyway.

Inistence: (noun) the fact of not having objective or physical reality or energy

Inist: (verb) have a non-objective reality; unable to be touched or grasped; not having physical presence or energy; not constituting a physical object

Inistent: (adjective) not having physical reality or energy

I am sure that these definitions can be improved on, but they are a starting point. As we can see, we have a noun, a verb, and an adjective…
