Dear Bruno,

Have you seen how Tim Maudlin is now a vigorous proponent of the existence of Time as Fundamental?

In his paper on comp, he seems to favor materialism against comp, so this is not so astonishing. Likewise he depart from the MWI.

Hi Bruno,

   Yes, I agree, he does seem to assume some form of physicalism.





Could subsets of your UD be the Stone dual of a line, as Maudlin defines them?


   Are subsets of the UD equivalent to a Boolean Algebra?

The UD is not a set.

But doing some effort to translate what you say, the answer is NO. You can make the UD into a set by modeling it by the set of sigma_1 sentences. But the negation of a sigma_1 sentence is not necessarily sigma_1, so it gives not a boolean algebra.

Bruno





Please elaborate.

Bruno
