Abstract
Keywords:
1. Introduction
1.1. Concept of Infinity and the Problem with the Thinking Paradigm
2. Collatz Conjecture
3. Riemann Hypothesis
4. Galileo’s Paradox
- Are those sets infinite?
- Why this paradox even appear?
- Is the current number theory correct if it raises such paradoxes?
5. Casimir Effect


- The finite value assigned to this series is indeed correct and matches physical reality.
- Raises the question if this series is truly infinite and always linearly increasing and if we should change our understanding. Furthermore if infinity truly exist in our physical universe moreover in math.
6. Gabriel’s Horn Paradox

- Why does the paradox appear?
- Is it possible in the real world?

14. Summary
- First of all, there are the biggest and the smallest possible numbers on the number line. We denote them as Y and (axiom 1). Also, there are the smallest positive and the largest negative numbers, denoted as E and (axiom 5). "Infinite" is the interval , where each number inside has the minimal difference from other numbers, equal to E. The growth of numbers is non-linear on the number line, described by the increasing function (Equation (36)). After numbers reach Y, they start to decrease, which is described by the decreasing function (Equation (48)).
- The negative plane has a shift equal to . This was described in Section 11. In addition, numbers have properties of waves such as interference, which was presented, described, and proved in Section 11.
- To deal with "infinite" series, we calculate the areas between the increasing and decreasing functions; in other words, we calculate the integral from to Y of . This was explained and proved in Section 12.
- When , where is the operator presented in Section 10, we must use the Sophy-Peter equations (Section 10) since numbers larger than Y cannot exist.
- When we add , the result is 0, indicating a cycle of numbers. The formal definition was presented in Section 13. The maximum number of cycles is Y, as it grows like natural numbers (the proof in Section 13).
