Dear Prof. Dr. Michel L. Lapidus:

You’re a mathematician of the highest caliber. Congratulations.  I just enjoy mathematics but have very little deep knowledge (occasional high school teacher, retired), however I know that my questions are out on the fringe of knowledge:

  1. Do you have any ideas about the functionality of the five-tetrahedral and five-octahedral gaps? I.acknowledge there can also be configurations of dodecahedral and icosahedral gaps. https://81018.com/gaps/
  2. Assuming Planck Time is the first moment of time, do you think the 202.34 base-2 notations to the current time are important? https://81018.com/chart/ 
  3. There are four hexagonal plates within the octahedron —https://81018.com/octahedron/ Might we explore the possibility that these plates are stabilizers in the sphere generation process? https://81018.com/planck-polyhedral-core/

Thank you.

Most sincerely,

Bruce
