Construction of the continuum #298982

The nature of the 'continuum' is a problem of great profundity that philosophers and mathematicians have been studying for more than two millennia. The problem is abstract, but it relates to concrete situations and is probably connected with the profound nature of the human mind. The author comes to the conclusion, through concrete and abstract examples, that the continuum is not found in what exists, but is made up of the synthesis between what exists and its hidden potential.
