  • Incredible coincidences and Morozov--Fomenko problem on folds of history

    Published in "Matematicheskoe obrazovenie", 2002, number 3.

      This is a paper on Mathematical Statistics for students. I discuss the following problem. Let we observe some collection of coincidences that looks like incredible. Can we deduce from them some definite consequences?

      There were many waves of quasi-scientific speculations related to such problems (as numerical mysteries around Egypt pyramids, dependences of universal physical constants, "parallelisms" in Babilonian history etc.) I discuss this problem basing on example of Morozov--Fomenko new chronology This is an elementary mathematical (non-polemic) paper.

      I hope that 'new chronology' is not interesting outside Russia. For this reason the paper is not translated to English. General comments on this story are on Gorodetski cite.
