Only Problems, Not Solutions!

Florentin Smarandache

Abstract

The development of mathematics continues in a rapid rhythm, some unsolved problems are elucidated and simultaneously new open problems to be solved appear. 1. "Man is the measure of all things". Considering that mankind will last to infinite, is there a terminus point where this competition of development will end? And, if not, how far can science develop: even so to the infinite? That is . The answer, of course, can be negative, not being an end of development, but a period of stagnation or of small regression. And, if this end of development existed, would it be a (self) destruction? Do we wear the terms of selfdestruction in ourselves? (Does everything have an end, even the infinite? Of course, extremes meet.) I, with my intuitive mind, cannot imagine what this infinite space means (without a beginning, without an end), and its infinity I can explain to myself only by mAans of a special property of space, a kind of a curved line which obliges me to always come across the same point, something like Moebus Band, or Klein Bottle, which can be put up/down (!)
