  • This is made more apparent by the so-called ˜hole argument™ which shows that if diffeomorphic models are regarded as physically distinct then there is a breakdown of determinism.

  • Most of these wave functionals are over metric configuration variables which have no classical description, or in fact have no possible dynamical (diffeomorphic) description.

  • -- [[User: Aschlafly | Andy Schlafly]] 00: 51, 23 December 2009 (EST):: Here is as precise a definition of Perelman entropy as exists for a non-geometer: Ricci flow on two manifolds which are basically the same (ie, diffeomorphic) can still be different.

  • The new tool, called large deformation diffeomorphic mapping (LDDMM), allowed researchers at the Kennedy Krieger Institute in Baltimore, Md. and the Johns Hopkins Center for Imaging Science to examine the precise shape of the basal ganglia.
