  2. Tipler cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tipler_cylinder

    A Tipler cylinder, also called a Tipler time machine, is a hypothetical object theorized to be a potential mode of time travel—although results have shown that a Tipler cylinder could only allow time travel if its length were infinite or with the existence of negative energy.

  3. Limits of computation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limits_of_computation

    The Bekenstein bound limits the amount of information that can be stored within a spherical volume to the entropy of a black hole with the same surface area. Thermodynamics limit the data storage of a system based on its energy, number of particles and particle modes. In practice, it is a stronger bound than the Bekenstein bound.

  4. MATLAB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MATLAB

    MATLAB (an abbreviation of "MATrix LABoratory" [18]) is a proprietary multi-paradigm programming language and numeric computing environment developed by MathWorks.MATLAB allows matrix manipulations, plotting of functions and data, implementation of algorithms, creation of user interfaces, and interfacing with programs written in other languages.

  5. Dynamic time warping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_time_warping

    Due to different speaking rates, a non-linear fluctuation occurs in speech pattern versus time axis, which needs to be eliminated. [31] DP matching is a pattern-matching algorithm based on dynamic programming (DP) , which uses a time-normalization effect, where the fluctuations in the time axis are modeled using a non-linear time-warping function.

  6. Spacetime diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacetime_diagram

    The Lorentz transformation relates two inertial frames of reference, where an observer stationary at the event (0, 0) makes a change of velocity along the x-axis. As shown in Fig 2-1, the new time axis of the observer forms an angle α with the previous time axis, with α < ⁠ π / 4 ⁠.

  7. Time-invariant system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-invariant_system

    The system is time-invariant if and only if y 2 (t) = y 1 (t – t 0) for all time t, for all real constant t 0 and for all input x 1 (t). [1] [2] [3] Click image to expand it. In control theory, a time-invariant (TI) system has a time-dependent system function that is not a direct function of time.

  8. Time domain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_domain

    For discrete-time signals, the value is known at discrete, often equally-spaced, time intervals. [2] It is commonly visualized using a graph where the x-axis represents time and the y-axis represents the signal's value. [3] An oscilloscope is a common tool used to visualize real-world signals in the time domain.

  9. Quantum mechanics of time travel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_mechanics_of_time...

    The theoretical study of time travel generally follows the laws of general relativity. Quantum mechanics requires physicists to solve equations describing how probabilities behave along closed timelike curves (CTCs), which are theoretical loops in spacetime that might make it possible to travel through time.
