Dirac in his The Principles of Quantum Mechanics OUP - 1958 Paradox Number Zeno of Elea's Paradice Quantum Comments Arrow Paradox There is no motion since what is moving must arrive at a midpoint before arriving at an endpoint. This paradox makes a deluded classical presumption that reality is both an infinitely divisible spatial extensity and that infinitesimal reductions of that infinitely divisible extensity are demarcable by ideal 'dimensionless' classical 'points' and that a moving object can 'stop' at classically demarcated points. (Classically 'stop' means zero momentum Another way to make our statement is that this, Zeno's first, paradox assumes that classical motion and time are subject to analyticity. Via that assumption, any classical motion is, due its spatial extensity, thus stoppable for purposes of analysis, and not continuous. Similarly for time.

ZENO OF ELEA (5th century BC) "My writing is an answer to the partisans of the many... with a view to showing that the hypothesis of the many, if examined in sufficient detail, leads to even more absurd results that the hypothesis of the One." (Zeno in Plato's Dialogue "Parmenides") Little is known of Zeno other than that he came from Elea, in southern Italy, and that he was a dedicated disciple (some say lover) of Parmenides . Zeno is best known for his use of paradox to prove his master's thesis that being is one, indivisible and eternal. Plato's dialogue "Parmenides" describes an encounter between Zeno and Socrates , but this is not conclusive evidence that he visited Athens. The fragments of his writing are all preserved in much later texts, notably in Aristotle and Simplicius' "Commentary on Physics". Zeno's treatises consisted of a series of arguments designed to prove Parmenides' concept of unity of being. His main form of argument is the paradox . Most of the paradoxes aim to prove that Being is single, finite, motionless and unchanging by examining the absurdities of the opposite "common-sense" hypothesis that several things exist. The most famous of the paradoxes, Achilles and the tortoise, is attributed to Parmenides himself. It is meant to show that motion is impossible. In a race where a tortoise is given a head start on Achilles, Achilles can never overtake the tortoise. He must first reach the place from which the tortoise started. By that time the tortoise will have got some way ahead. Achilles must then make up that and again the tortoise will be ahead. Zeno's four most discussed paradoxes have been resolved in terms of differential calculus by

53. Ward Melville HS - Zeno This man, called zeno of elea, is widely known for his pronounced doubt in And now, readers, here is the account of my talk with zeno of elea. http://www.3villagecsd.k12.ny.us/wmhs/Departments/Math/OBrien/zeno.html

Zeno Last week, I was given the opportunity to interview one of the most influential and noteworthy individuals in the history of mathematics. This man, called Zeno of Elea, is widely known for his pronounced doubt in mathematics. He has achieved the bulk of his fame through his work with paradoxes; arguments dealing with reality that are known for their illogicality. Although not considered a mathematician by established standards, it is safe to say that the world would not be as it is today were it not for Zeno's contributions to the field. And now, readers, here is the account of my talk with Zeno of Elea. I think that you will find it as interesting and intriguing as I have, so without further ado, I now present to you the aforesaid conversation. Q: How about you start out by telling me a little about your background, Zeno? A: Well, I was born in 495 B.C., in Elea, Italy. I grew up there, and I also lived in Athens, Greece for some time as well. My teacher in Elea was Parmenides, a great philosopher. That was how I wound up in Athens- I had accompanied him on a trip there. It was quite a memorable one too, for I had the pleasure of meeting Socrates and Plato, the latter of which was generous enough to include me as a character in one of his books. Q: I understand you became quite accomplished in the affairs at Elea.

Zeno I interviewed the famous Zeno of Elea and talked to him about his life and mathematical achievements. He told me about his paradoxes. The interview follows this paragraph. Drew: So Zeno, if I may call you Zeno, where were you born and when? Zeno: Well Drew, I was born in the Greek Colony of Elea which is situated in southern Italy. I was born in about the year 495 B.C. Drew: So Zeno, did you have any real teachers or did you come up with your paradoxes on your own? Zeno: Actually, my first teacher was Parmenides, who was a philosopher. And with him I traveled to Athens where I met Socrates and eventually got into Plato's book Parmenides . Actually apart from what many think I am not a mathematician but a philosopher and logician. Drew: Then I guess we will have to change our column title, huh. Well back to math, what do you think is your best stumper for mathematicians? Zeno: Well, I would have to say that The Achilles is the best stumper. Drew: And how exactly does that go? Zeno: Well if you start a tortoise ahead of Achilles in a race, then Achilles will never get ahead of the tortoise. Drew: How is that possible? Isn't Achilles the fastest runner?

X Evans Experientialism X Evans X Experientialism X Evans Experientialism Back to Academy Library Greek Academy Reading Room Zeno of Elea Born: about 490 BC in Elea, Lucania (now southern Italy) Died: about 425 BC in Elea, Lucania (now southern Italy) Very little is known of the life of Zeno of Elea. We certainly know that he was a philosopher, and he is said to have been the son of Teleutagoras. The main source of our knowledge of Zeno comes from the dialogue Parmenides written by Plato. Zeno was a pupil and friend of the philosopher Parmenides and studied with him in Elea. The Eleatic School , one of the leading pre-Socratic schools of Greek philosophy, had been founded by Parmenides in Elea in southern Italy. His philosophy of monism claimed that the many things which appear to exist are merely a single eternal reality which he called Being. His principle was that "all is one" and that change or non-Being are impossible. Certainly Zeno was greatly influenced by the arguments of Parmenides and Plato tells us that the two philosophers visited Athens together in around 450 BC. Despite Plato's description of the visit of Zeno and Parmenides to Athens, it is far from universally accepted that the visit did indeed take place. However, Plato tells us that
