mathematical nominalism

A theory which states that the infinite planes inside of a circle (transfinite space) are orthogonal to the uncountable perimeters of the self-same circle.

Furthermore that the diameter of the universe is 10^14 Planck lengths.
Mathematical nominalism is a corollary of perimeter theory; which states that one perimeter of the circle contains uncountable perimeters.

Mathematical nominalism asserts that infinity and uncountability are separated by 10^14 Planck lengths--a distance equivalent to the entire diameter of the universe.

Growth Mindset in Mathematics

The idea that math educators should focus on effort rather than on results—that failure is part of the success equation, because a set of false starts, failures, and frustrations are often necessary or unavoidable before someone could experience some degree of mathematical progress or achievement.
To fail is no shame, but failure to try again often is. A growth mindset in mathematics is to try or fail again, while failing better or faster each time.

Onto Mathematics

School of thought which addresses the "something-from-nothing" conundrum.

Based on the corollary of Tarskian area.

Ontological mathematics.
Onto mathematics explains that something appears from nothing because the area of same-discrete lines is two TIMES the area of the volume which encompasses them.

In other words: lines have area.

Mathematics

A word to make you sound smarter, much more smarter than all of the lesser people who say math.
Friend: Hey, do you have math class?
Me: You mean mathematics?
Friend: It's the same thing.
Me: No it's not.

Mathematics

Legal form of torture in the shape of numbers and algebra.

Where you have to solve problems for a mean man or woman who already knows the answers.
It's as stupid as mathematics!

Mathematical Fraud

One who has achieved far beyond what his average or below-average mathematical intelligence could allow him to do, by lying, bullshitting, scheming, pretending, or backstabbing—the mathematical equivalent of a racist-rapist-turned-fraud-felon who got elected, rejected, and reelected despite all the odds against him.
Guesstimate how many mathematical frauds make it bigly in the publishing industry worldwide every year.
