To-do list for Weyl curvature hypothesis:

Tasks for anyone:

  • put citations in form suggested here.
  • footnotes were used inappropriately here, so remove them; they are only a distraction.
  • improve style (shouldn't there be a new paragraph somewhere in there?)

Task for expert:

  • improve discussion of gravitational entropy, perhaps write and link to background articles

[edit] The hypothesis

According to a public lecture by Roger Penrose 18 August 2006 at University of British Columbia, Vancouver B.C., the Weyl curvature hypothesis is that the normal derivative of the Weyl curvature of a previous universe is equal to the normal derivative of the Weyl curvature in the succeeding universe even at the moment of the Big Bang. --Ancheta Wis 05:39, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
