-------------------------------------------------------ABSTRACT---------------------------------------------------
A manifold means “1. Having many forms, parts, etc.” [1] Manifolds which have many parts, forms are not
necessarily one to one to 3 spheres. Poincare conjecture can be proven and disproven based on the case study of
imaginary manifolds, imaginary numbers, ellipses, rhombus, trapezoids, parallelograms, triangles, squares,
always changing manifolds and the Sun or stars. Proof and disproof are reasonable for the Poincare Conjecture.
Homeomorphic has 2 meanings. One meaning of homeomorphic is similar in form and one meaning of
homeomorphic is deformable. [2] Proof and disproof of Poincare Conjecture are supported by the 2 definitions of
homeomorphic and the definitions of manifold. Dr. Grigori Perelman’s proof of the Poincare Conjecture does not
place enough emphasis on the meaning of homeomorphic as having similarity of form or the definition of manifold
as many, diverse or varied.

I. METHODOLOGY
I rely primarily on meanings of homeomorphic and manifolds or linguistic discussion. I also use case study or
examples of imaginary numbers, always changing manifolds, imaginary manifolds, rhombus, trapezoids, ellipse
and Sun and stars to discuss the Poincare Conjecture. Another type of disproof is that we are not completely sure
what Henry Poincare actually saw as the Poincare conjecture as we cannot speak to him directly in 1900 and 1904.

The Meaning of Homeomorphic: Discussion of the Poincare Conjecture can be seen as related to the Meaning
of homeomorphic. I use a math resource Wolfram Math World to define homeomorphic. Here is Wolfram Math
world’s definition accessed on 12/31/2017.

“There are two possible definitions:

1. Possessing similarity of form,
2. Continuous, one-to-one, in surjection, and having a continuous inverse.”
The most common meaning is possessing intrinsic topological equivalence. Two objects are homeomorphic if
they can be deformed into each other by a continuous, invertible mapping. Such a homeomorphism ignores the
space in which surfaces are embedded, so the deformation can be completed in a higher dimensional space than
the surface was originally embedded. Mirror images are homeomorphic, as are Möbius strip with an even number
of half-twists, and Möbius strip with an odd number of half-twists.
In category theory terms, homeomorphisms are isomorphisms in the category of topological spaces and continuous
maps. [3]
Here I rely on both meanings. I use similarity of form and deformable as the definitions of the word homeomorphic
in order to show that there can be both proof and disproof of the Poincare conjecture related to those definitions.

The Meaning of Manifold: For the meaning of manifold, I rely on the Merriam Webster definition as the common
word use or everyday use of manifold is arguably more linked to the meaning used by Henri Poincare at the turn
of the 20th century in 1900 and 1904. Here is a meaning of manifold according to the online Merriam Webster
dictionary accessed on 12/31/2017.

1 a: marked by diversity or variety

• performs the manifold duties required of him

b: many [4]
As the word manifold means many or diverse or variety, based on word definition alone, something that is
diverse varied and many is not similar to a 3 sphere. Linguistic Disproof based on diverse, many, varied does
not mean 3 sphere is simple to argue for or support.

Case studies of Imaginary Manifolds, Imaginary Numbers and Always Changing Manifolds and Sun

Imaginary Manifold or Imaginary Number Disproof

For a definition of imaginary number, I again rely on Wolfram MathWorld accessed 12/31/2017. Imaginary
Number means
“Although Descartes originally used the term "imaginary number" to refer to what is today known as a complex
number, in standard usage today, "imaginary number" means a complex number that has zero real part (i.e., such
that ). For clarity, such numbers are perhaps best referred to as purely imaginary numbers.
A (purely) imaginary number can be written as a real number multiplied by the "imaginary unit" i (equal to the
square root ), i.e., in the form . [5]
An imaginary manifold form can be imagined which does not actually exist other than in imagination. Manifolds
that are imaginary would not easily be similar or deformable into an actual 3 sphere. An imaginary number like
“i” is not a 3 sphere. Imaginary numbers are manifolds, but imaginary numbers are not similar to 3 spheres.
Poincare disproven based on imaginary manifolds and imaginary numbers.
As we do recognize imaginary numbers like “i” as existing, we can see that an i or imaginary number
is not a 3 sphere and is not similar in form to a 3 sphere. To maintain the meaning of similarity in form, we should
be able to say an “i” or imaginary number is not similar to a 3 sphere. Something that is imaginary in form is not
similar in form to an objective 3 sphere. A real number multiplied by an imaginary unit is not a 3 sphere.

Poincare Conjecture Proved Based on Imaginary Manifolds and Numbers: One still could prove the Poincare
conjecture too by showing an imaginary manifold that deforms into a 3 sphere. Such a deformation from imaginary
manifold to 3 spheres is based on the ability to imagine or draw or see deformation without cutting from an
imaginary number like I into a 3 sphere. The “i” or imaginary number grows on all sides and becomes a 3 sphere.
Deformation from I to 3 sphere is a possibility. We take an imaginary manifold or number like i, make it a real
manifold and then we deform the manifold into a 3 sphere. Simple growth or expansion can be used for
deformation.
Proof and disproof were just shown and illustrated with imaginary manifolds. Just expand I into a 3 sphere and
the deformation is viewable. Just look at the expansion or growth of I into a 3 sphere and we can see that I and 3
spheres are similar.
In the real world, we have imaginary particles or virtual particles. In the real world we have imaginary numbers.
I was taught imaginary numbers in Algebra in sophomore year of high school. Imaginary numbers are well
known as the square roots of negative numbers. Imaginary numbers are a branch of numbers similar to e’s or pi;
important numbers in number theory. An imaginary number can be deformed into a 3 sphere, but is not similar
to a 3 sphere.
Poincare conjecture is both provable and disproved using imaginary numbers. An imaginary manifold can be
seen as not similar to a 3 sphere and not deformable into a 3 sphere. Something imaginary cannot become real
arguably. On the other hand, something imaginary like an imaginary manifold could be deformed into a real
manifold and then seen as deformable into a 3 sphere. Proof and disproof are both supported by examination of
imaginary numbers and imaginary manifolds.

Always Changing Manifolds. I introduced this argument for always changing manifolds not being
homeomorphic to 3 spheres in July 2010.
Always Changing Manifold Disproof: An always changing form can be imagined. Manifolds that are always
changing would not be similar to or deformed into a stable 3 sphere. A manifold can always be oscillating,
disappearing, transforming, and changing forms. Such a manifold would not be similar or deformable into a stable
3 sphere. Poincare Conjecture can be disproven based on the always changing manifold with varied, diverse, or
many forms not being similar or deformable into a stable 3 sphere.

Always Changing Manifold Proof: On the other hand, one can have an always changing manifold and an always
changing 3 spheres.

 Poincare Conjecture Proven and Disproved Using…

As a type of proof of Poincare conjecture, always changing manifolds can be similar and deformable into always
changing 3 spheres. Even from an always changing manifold, a deformation to stop the changing characteristic or
form of manifold would be similar and deformable into a 3 sphere.

Sun or Stars Disproof: The Sun also can be described as both similar to a 3 sphere and deformable into a 3 sphere
and not similar and not deformable into a 3 sphere. The Sun arguably is a simple compact closed manifold. The
Sun has roughly 333,000 times the size of Earth. [6] The Sun with much larger size is not similar to a very small
3 sphere. The Sun is constantly shooting spicules up in the air “at a rate of 20 km/s (or 72,000 km/h) and can
reach several thousand kilometers in height before collapsing and fading away.” [7] The Sun which is always
changing is not similar to a stable 3 sphere. We could deform the Sun into one stable 3 sphere, but a Sun which is
333,000 times the size of the Earth or always shooting off spicules is not similar in form to a very small 3 sphere.
Let’s take all the stars considered as a manifold in comparison to one 3 spheres. In our galaxy alone, there are
from 100 to 400 billion stars. [8] If there are 100 to 400 billion stars, those many stars are not similar in form to
one 3 spheres. We could argue that each individual star is similar to a sphere, but the collection of all 100 to 400
billion stars in our galaxy would not be directly similar in form to one 3 sphere. The Sun and Stars and their
differences in form, appearance, structure, activity from a 3 sphere can be seen as a disproof of the Poincare
Conjecture. Exploding stars, binary stars, interacting stars, Supernovae, dying stars are not the same as a 3 sphere.

Sun and Stars Proof of Poincare Conjecture: The sun and stars as more numerous and much larger and changing
could still be seen as vaguely similar to a 3 sphere. Similar is an arbitrary term. Is something like something else
or different? Is a star similar to a 3 sphere or is a star dissimilar than a 3 sphere? One massive star or many
numerous stars with changing spicules can be seen still as similar to 3 spheres. Stars and Suns are sometimes like
3 spheres, but Suns and Stars movement makes them different.

How about deformability? We do not need to rely on Dr. Grigori Perelman’s discussion of Italian Mathematician
Gregorio Ricci and his heat flow work. From Wikipedia.org accessed on December 31, 2017 “Gregorio Ricci-
Curbastro (Italian: [ɡreˈɡɔːrjo ˈrittʃi kurˈbastro]; 12 January 1853 – 6 August 1925) was an Italian mathematician
born in Lugo di Romagna. He is most famous as the inventor of tensor calculus, but also published important
works in other fields.” [9]

Ricci was not working on Poincare Conjecture when he invented the Ricci Flow. As Ricci flow was not intended
to be a proof of the Poincare Conjecture as Perelman used the Ricci flow, we cannot be sure the application is
entirely appropriate. What did Ricci really intend the Ricci Flow to be used for? That purpose can never be
determined due to a lack of evidence how Ricci intended his flow to be used. Aside from the Ricci Flow issue
however, can a star be deformed into a 3 sphere? Arguably, yes stars can be deformed into 3 spheres. Also No
stars cannot be deformed into 3 spheres as there would need to be folding or cutting of spicules, sunspots and
coronal mass ejections. We can imagine many numerous stars and one massive star and Sun as deformable into a
3 sphere. Deformation means changing into without folding or cutting. We could change a Sun into a 3 sphere.
We can deform many 200 billion stars in our galaxy into a 3 sphere. Imagination allows these transformations
without cutting or folding. Shrinking, deflation, Growth, Inflation ideas would be involved in making a Sun or
Star into a small 3 sphere or a very large 3 sphere. We do not need to rely on any kind of flow or Ricci Flow to
do deformation!

II. RHOMBUS AND TRAPEZOID DISCUSSION

A trapezoid is “In Euclidean geometry, a convex quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides is referred
to as a trapezoid[1][
Here is an image accessed from Wikipedia.org article on the subject. This trapezoid shape

[10]
Is not the same as a 3 sphere! This shape however could be deformed into a 3 sphere. The Poincare Conjecture
again easily disproved and provable.

www.ijmrem.com IJMREM Page 45

 Poincare Conjecture Proven and Disproved Using…

Similarly, with a Rhombus.

A rhombus is defined as “In Euclidean geometry, a rhombus(◊) (plural rhombi or rhombuses) is a simple (non-
self-intersecting) quadrilateral whose four sides all have the same length”

[11]
This shape is not a 3 sphere, so the Poincare conjecture is disproved. Rhombus are not 3 sphere. A rhombus is
different than a 3 sphere not the same. Could we deform a rhombus into a 3 sphere? We could stretch the sides
into a more spherical structure and create deformation into a 3 sphere. The rhombus is both different than a 3
sphere but also deformable into a sphere. This Poincare Conjecture can be both proven and disproven.

III. ELLIPSE DISCUSSION

From Wikipedia.org an ellipse is “In mathematics, an ellipse is a curve in a plane surrounding two focal points
such that the sum of the distances to the two focal points is constant for every point on the curve.” [12]
Some ellipses are here

[13]: Look at the third ellipse, which is not the same as a 3 sphere. Poincare Conjecture can be disproved by
showing that manifolds like ellipses are not 3 spheres. Word meaning should mean something. An ellipse and a 3
sphere should be comprehended as having differences and different appearance!
One could compress the shape and make it three dimensional however to create a 3 sphere. Growth or universal
expansion of all the parts in the ellipse could produce or deform into a 3 sphere. We can argue for a Struck Flow
like the Ricci Flow that an object can transform or deform into a 3 sphere. Struck Flow would not be like heat
flow in Ricci’s work or Ricci’s Flow, but rather a transformation based on expansion or deflation so that one shape
can be transformed into a 3-sphere shape. Poincare Conjecture can be proven also based on the ability to imagine
one shape being transformed into a 3 sphere shape. Struck Flow does not involve heat, but rather expansion and
deflation as deformation methods.

IV. SQUARE DISCUSSION

From Wikipedia.org, a square is “In geometry, a square is a regular quadrilateral, which means that it has four
equal sides and four equal angles (90-degree angles, or (100-gradian angles or right angles).[1] It can also be
defined as a rectangle in which two adjacent sides have equal length. A square with vertices ABCD would be
denoted ◻ {\displaystyle \square } ABCD.” [14]
A square looks like

[14]
A square is not a sphere. Since a square is not a 3 sphere, a square manifold is not homeomorphic with a 3
sphere. A square could be deformed into a sphere however through growth in various areas of the square
structure. Still using the same definition of homeomorphic, a square is different than a 3 sphere. Poincare
Conjecture disproved and Poincare conjecture supported using an analysis of a square.

V. TRIANGLE DISCUSSION
A triangle is another basic shape in geometry. Here is how Wikipedia.org defines a triangle accessed on 2/5/2018

A triangle is a polygon with three edges and three vertices. It is one of the basic shapes in geometry. A triangle
with vertices A, B, and C is denoted.”[16] So if we use the definition of homeomorphic meaning same, we see
that triangles are not the same as 3 spheres. A triangle with 3 sides, 3 edges is not the same as a 3 sphere. If we
use the definition of homeomorphic meaning deformable, we can do an expansion of the areas of the triangle into
a 3 sphere. So we can both disprove the Poincare conjecture by showing that a triangle is not a 3 sphere and prove
the Poincare conjecture showing that we can transform a triangle into a 3 sphere through deformation.

VI. PARALLELOGRAM DISCUSSION

We can do the same type of discussion with a parallelogram. Here is what a parallelogram is from wikipeida.org
accessed on 2/5/2018.
“Parallelogram

This article is about the quadrilateral shape.

unequal sides.

In Euclidean geometry, a parallelogram is a simple (non-self-intersecting) quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel
sides. The opposite or facing sides of a parallelogram are of equal length and the opposite angles of a parallelogram
are of equal measure. The congruence of opposite sides and opposite angles is a direct consequence of the
Euclidean parallel postulate and neither condition can be proven without appealing to the Euclidean parallel
postulate or one of its equivalent formulations.” [17] So since we have parallel sides, we do not have a 3 sphere.
Since a parallelogram has 4 sides, 4 sides are not the same as a 3 sphere. Poincare conjecture disproven as a
quadrilateral shape with parallel 4 sides is not a 3 sphere shape with the edges all equal distance from the center
as in a 3 sphere. On the other hand with the definition of homeomorphic as deformable, we could do a deformation
of a parallelogram into a 3 sphere. Struck Flow could be used; Struck flow is expansion and growth and deflation
or shrinking without involving heat or a Ricci Flow into a 3 sphere. Parallelograms are not the same as 3 spheres,
but parallelograms can be deformed into 3 spheres. Poincare conjecture disproved and proven using the
parallelogram case study.

VII. CONCLUSIONS
Conjectures can be proved and disproved. Poincare Conjecture can easily be disproved as always changing forms
or manifolds are not similar or deformable into 3 spheres. Poincare Conjecture can be easily proved also as a
particular 3 sphere manifold is the same and deformable into a 3 sphere. Proof and disproof of the Poincare
conjecture is possible. Discussion of the imaginary number, imaginary manifold, and always changing manifolds
supports both proof and disproof of the Poincare Conjecture at the same time. Similarity and deformation both are
possible and not possible between types of manifolds and 3 spheres.

Suns and stars support also disproof and proof of the Poincare Conjecture. Linguistic discussion supports an
argument that something always changing, imaginary, the Sun, the Stars are not really similar in form to stable 3
spheres. The idea of difference supports the idea that simply connected closed manifolds, or many diverse, varied
forms, are not similar in form to 3 spheres as linguistically manifolds are different than 3 spheres. I find support
for proof, disproof and ultimately disproof of the Poincare conjecture to maintain an idea of difference between
manifolds and 3 spheres.

Additionally, as we are not completely certain what Jules Henri Poincare meant by his conjecture; there is some
concern as a type of disproof that we do not really know what Henri Poincare meant or was hypothesizing. Henri
Poincare lived from 29 April 1854 – 17 July 1912, [18] we cannot directly speak with him about what his
conjecture was discussing exactly.

Henri Poincare invented his conjecture in about 1900 and 1904 and there is reason to believe he supported my
disproof based on the Poincare Conjecture’s origin. See Wikipedia.org’s discussion of the Poincare conjecture
accessed 12/31/2017

“Poincaré claimed in 1900 that homology, a tool he had devised based on prior work by Enrico Betti, was
sufficient to tell if a 3-manifold was a 3-sphere. However, in a 1904 paper he described a counterexample to this
claim, a space now called the Poincaré homology sphere.” [19]

Further support that Jules Henri Poincare saw the Poincare homology sphere as a counterexample can be found.
“Poincaré originally conjectured [4] that a homology 3-sphere (http://planetmath.org/HomologySphere) must
be homeomorphic to S3. He later found a counterexample based on the group of rotations of the regular
dodecahedron (http://planetmath.org/RegularPolyhedron), and restated his conjecture in of the fundamental
group. (See [5]). To be accurate, the restatement took the form of a question. However it has always been referred
to as Poincaré’s Conjecture.)” [20]

 Poincare Conjecture Proven and Disproved Using…

The Poincare Homology sphere discussion shows that he knew of some support for a Poincare conjecture disproof
very different than Grigori Perelman’s proof. Disproof can be supported by Poincare’s own Poincare homology
sphere of 1904! My discussion of stars, Sun, imaginary numbers, imaginary manifolds, always changing
manifolds more different than 3 spheres provides further support for a disproof of the Poincare conjecture.

I submitted dozens of disproof’s and proofs also since 2010 from the disproof idea that I do not want to be
deformed into a 3 sphere to the proof idea that a specific manifold of a 3 sphere is homeomorphic to a particular
3 sphere. An imaginary manifold existing only in imagination is NOT homeomorphic to a specific 3 sphere.
There are mathematicians who object to the idea of imaginary numbers, imaginary numbers objected to can be
seen more different than 3 spheres. “Many other mathematicians were slow to adopt the use of imaginary numbers,
including René Descartes, who wrote about them in his La Géométrie, where the term imaginary was used and
meant to be derogatory.[ [7][8]” [21]

The rhombus and trapezoid discussion also shows that rhombus and trapezoids are different than 3 spheres, but
also deformable into 3 spheres. Poincare Conjecture can be both disproven with the meaning of homeomorphic
as same and proven with the meaning of homeomorphic as deformable. Ellipse provide more support that an
ellipse is a manifold that is not the same as a 3 sphere, so Poincare Conjecture can be easily disproven. Ellipse are
not equal to 3 spheres. When a star explodes or goes supernova, an exploding star is not similar to a 3 sphere. In
addition, an ellipse can be transformed or flow into a 3 sphere so the Poincare Conjecture can also be supported
or proven. Proof and disproof of the Poincare Conjecture are supported by examination of a number of cases and
examples!

Parallelograms, squares, triangles provide further support that these shapes are not homeomorphic or the same as
3 spheres, but these shapes can be deformed into 3 spheres. Poincare Conjecture is easily disproven given the
meaning of homeomorphic as same and proven given the meaning of homeomorphic as deformable. The famous
Poincare Conjecture can be disproven and proven using case studies of parallelograms, squares, rhombus,
trapezoid, ellipse, imaginary numbers, imaginary manifold, stars, Suns, always changing manifolds.

The original objection I had around July 2010 to the Poincare Conjecture that an always changing, many, diverse
shape manifold is not the same as a 3 sphere remains. We can deform a manifold, or a shape always changing,
diverse, varied shapes into a 3 sphere, but an always changing, diverse, varied manifold or changing or diverse
shape is not the same as a 3 sphere. My objection that varied, diverse, changing shapes are not the same as 3
spheres applies as much to the work of Richard Hamilton and as much to Michael Freedman in 1982 as to Grigori
Perelman’s work in 2006. Rene Descartes was known for his understanding of all life and philosophy linked to
Geometry called Cartesian Philosophy. The Poincare Conjecture can be seen as an extension of the importance of
Cartesian Philosophy. We can disagree with both Rene Descartes and Jules Henri Poincare and their assertions
about geometry and topology. Something diverse and varied like a 2 dimensional or 1 dimensional shape or 10-
dimensional shape or 200-dimensional shape can be seen as not one to one to a ball in 4-dimensional space. A 3
Sphere is defined as “It consists of the set of points equidistant from a fixed central point in 4-
dimensional Euclidean space.” [22] A line, dodecahedron, parabola, hyperbola would not be one to one to the 3
spheres as the shapes are different.
Let’s look at a set of points that are not equal distance from a fixed central point. The set of point’s not equal
distance from the fixed central point is not going to be one to one to the 3 spheres or the set of points that is equal
distance to a fixed set of points. I invent then the “Struck Manifold-Set of Points of all Different, Varied or
Changing Distance from Fixed Central Point” to show that the Struck Manifold is not one to one to a set of points
of equal distance to a central point! Manifolds of varied distance from central points are not homeomorphic or
one to one to 3 spheres with all points equal distance to a central point.
