> Finite Nature is the assumption that, at some scale, space and time are discrete and that the number of possible states of every finite volume of space-time is finite. In other words Finite Nature assumes that there is no thing that is smooth or continuous and that there are no infinitesimals.
> A growing number of theorists explore the possibility that space is not continuous, but rather discrete at the smallest scales.
> This discreteness hypothesis implies that given two different points in space, there is no continuous curve (a world line) joining them.
