Numerical Universe

Ω = 1, the amount of matter in the Universe, such that if Ω were greater than one, it would have collapsed long ago, and if Ω were less than one, no Galaxies would have formed.

e = .007, how firmly atomic nuclei bind together, such that if epsilon were .006 or .008, matter could not exist as it does.

D = 3, the number of dimensions in which we live, such that if D were 2 or 4, life could not exist.

N = 1036, the ratio of the strength of gravity to that of electromagnetism, such that if it had just a few less zeros, the universe would be too young and too small for life to evolve.

Q,= 1/100,000, the fabric of the universe, such that if Q were smaller, the universe would be featureless, and if Q were larger, the universe would be dominated by giant black holes.

λ= 0.7, the cosmological constant, or "antigravity" force that is causing the Universe to expand at an accelerating rate, such that if λ were larger, it would have prevented Stars and Galaxies from forming.

Change these relationships, and Stars, Planets, indeed life itself could not exist. Thus, this is not just the best of all possible worlds, it is the only possible world.
In other words, if the numbers that define our Universe were just slightly different, then it would be a sterile space, which prompts us to ask whether there is some deeper significance to these numbers. Are we simply lucky or is there a Creator who selected the numbers in order to create a Universe capable of sustaining life?

According to Sir Martin, there is a third possibility.
He suggests that there is a myriad of Universes, collectively known as the multiverse,each with its own values for the 6 numbers. The vast majority of Universes are sterile, but a few of them can contain life. As we are alive, then we must, by definition, find ourselves in a Universe with the right 6 numbers.

Pythagoras is often referred to as the first pure mathematician. He believed:
All things are numbers, that mathematics is the basis for everything, and geometry is the highest form of mathematical studies.

He also believed:
The physical world can be understood through mathematics, and that numbers have personalities, characteristics, strengths and weaknesses.

It is difficult to be certain whether all the theorems attributed to Pythagoras were originally his, or whether they came from the communal society of the Pythagoreans.
But the Pythagoreans always gave credit to Pythagoras as the Master for the following:

The sum of the angles of a triangle is equal to two right angles.

The theorem of Pythagoras- for a right-angled triangle the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides. (The Babylonians understood this 1000 years earlier, but Pythagoras proved it).

Constructing figures of a given area and geometrical algebra. For example they solved various equations by geometrical means.

The discovery of irrational numbers is attributed to the Pythagoreans, but seems unlikely to have been the idea of Pythagoras because it does not align with his philosophy that all things are numbers, since numbers to him meant the ratio of two whole numbers.

The five regular solids (tetrahedron, cube, octahedron, icosahedron, dodecahedron). It is believed that Pythagoras knew how to construct the first three but not last two.

Pythagoras taught that Earth was a sphere in the center of the Kosmos (Universe), that the Planets, Stars, and the Universe were spherical because the sphere was the most perfect solid figure.
He also taught that the paths of the Planets were circular.

Pythagoras also recognized that Venus was both the Morning Star and the Evening Star.
