My theory of integration constant says- "Integration of any particular aspect over a significantly long range of the variants tends to be constant".
Trying to give it a mathematical shape:
[Integration(any aspect function)]long range for the variant(s) -> Constant
Example: let us understand this with an example, by taking an real aspect we all understand very well, that is money. Also in terms of most real world case, a key variant is time. So taking money we earn over a long time, say a life span -
Integration (money I am going to earn) over my life-span = Constant
this means if my earning curve is very steep at young age, either it is going to go down substantially when I am old or I am going to die early.
This constant value can of course vary from people to people. For example, at 33, I am quite certain that the value of the above integration result for me over my life span will be significantly insignificant compared to same calculated for Bill Gates. So does having two different values for Bill and me proves it to be wrong? Not so simple perhaps, may be we should really integrate over a larger number of people, to make the range of variant significantly large. In other words, if we are thinking of total money earned by a number of people over all their lifespan, the number of people being very very high (not just you, me and Bill), so even though individual earning figures vary widely, total again may tend to constant.
I wish we could have the earning data for say ten million people over their life-span, then randomly divide them into five or ten sets, and then find the total earnings for each set. That could help us to put the theory at a better judgement. With information systems getting richer and richer across world, I hope someday some clever statiscian or mathematician will be equipped enough with data sufficient for probing and mining and prove (or disapprove) this theory. Alas, till then, for proving such a nice hypothesis, we have to rely only on empirical observations.
Some more examples,
Integration (breaths you take) over 5 years = Constant (in this case lifespan may be too long, as we seem to breath in and out quite frequently)
Integration (joy and sadness) over the world at any moment = Constant; this means if I am happy at this moment right now, that is at the expense of someone else’s momentary tough time.
And so on.. really ...

ReplyDeleteDon't you think that the very tenet " amount of wealth created over the lifespan of a human being is constant " is flawed? How can you project the wealth that you would amass after 30 yrs? is there any statistics to verify it? Don't you think there would be too many variables to get a meaningful result?
ReplyDeleteNice observation.. but I must say that it's a bit biased in the sense that this observation is based on the assumption that we all are living in a steady state. The mean human wealth or the mean human oxygen consumption might hold in a steady state society, but fails in certain cases, e.g.,
ReplyDelete(a) World War II -- World's population and average life expectancy plummeted and with that the the expected wealth per person also may have shifted
(b) even worse - the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs -- I understand wealth may not have existed in such a society but they must be breathing the same air.
So my point is.. I do not refute the point of constancy .. its there.. in steady state... but deviates due to transient events ... so a better way to get a global picture would be ... its a damped system ... trying always to attain a steady state .. "shit" happened, happens and will happen in future as well .. but always due to some unforeseen force (that we ascribe to our so called God) we eventually try to attain a steady state or balance once again ....
A much better explanation to this has been put forth by Roger Penrose in his revised theory on big bang ...
