Statistical Approach to Problems of Cosmology
Abstract
SUMMARY: The basic hypothesis underlying current deterministic cosmologies, namely the so-called cosmological principle, can be stated precisely only in terms of probabilistic concepts. Consequently, considerable progress and aesthetic gain may be expected if determinism is abandoned and replaced by a frank probabilistic treatment of cosmology. This requires the adoption of the view that the Universe is a realization of a stochastic process which is stationary in the three (spatial) co-ordinates (cosmological principle) and possibly also stationary in the fourth (time) co-ordinate (“perfect” cosmological principle). Two examples are given of problems relevant to deterministic cosmological theories that elude deterministic treatment, but lend themselves to an indeterministic statistical study.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
