I. Quotations from Kaku (1994, 2005):
• In referring to the elliptic modular functions, basic mathematical tools for
string theories , which have been developed by the Indian mathematician
genius Srinivasa Ramanujan, Kaku writes, “When we add two more
dimensions to Ramanujan’s functions” [physicists add two extra dimen-
sions to mathematical functions in order to construct a physical theory],
“the ‘magic numbers’ of mathematics become 10 and 26, precisely the
‘magic numbers’ of string theory” (2005, 202–03).
• “The Big-Bang , as we shall see, perhaps originated in the breakdown of
the original ten-dimensional universe into a four- and a six-dimensional
universe” (1994, 195).
• “Beginning with the instant of Creation, we have the following stages
in the evolution of our universe: 10 –43 seconds: The ten-dimensional
universe breaks down to a four- and a six-dimensional universe. The
six-dimensional universe collapses down to 10 –32 centimeter in size. The
four-dimensional universe inflates rapidly.” (1994, 213).
• “The laws of physics simplify in higher dimensions . In this case, the 26-
dimensional space of the counterclockwise vibrations of the heteronic
string has room enough to explain all the symmetries found in both
Einstein s theory and quantum theory” (1994, 159).
’
• “One of the deepest secrets of string theory, which is still not well under-
stood, is why it is defined in only ten and 26 dimensions . If the theory
were three dimensional, it would not be able to unify the known laws of
physics in any sensible manner” (1994, 172). In a modified statement
reflecting advances in the pursuing ten years since 1994, Kaku writes,
“Consider Type I and the heterotic SO(32) string theory .. . The type
I string is defined entirely in ten-dimensional space, while the SO(32)
string is defined with one set of vibrations defined in the twenty-six
dimensional space … However … the theories possess a powerful dual-
ity: if you let the strength of the interactions increase, type I strings
change into SO(32) heterotic strings, as if by magic” (2005, 216).
• “In other words, physicists have not the slightest understanding of why ten
and 26 dimensions are singled out as the dimension of the string” (1994,
173; italics in the source).
• “The heterotic string begins by compactifying 26-dimensional space
down to 10-dimensional space, leaving us with 16 compactified dimen-
sions , which yields the group E(8)xE(8). This is more than enough to
accommodate the Standard Model ” (1994, 345).
