He is listed in &#039;&#039;[[The Worldwide List of Dissident Scientists]]&#039;&#039;.<br /> <br /> ==Work==<br /> Bonaly, associated with the University of Paris X (Nanterre), is the author of &quot;The trace of time in Poincaré sections of a topological space,&quot; in which he proposes that observable space-time can be identified with an ordered sequence of three-dimensional &quot;Poincaré sections&quot; embedded in a four-dimensional topological space, with the mappings between successive sections representing infinitesimal increments of time. He offers this as a definition of time and as a tentative resolution of paradoxes in special relativity.<br /> <br /> In collaboration with Michel Bounias (and others), Bonaly co-authored the multi-part series &quot;Scanning the structure of ill-known spaces,&quot; which builds a model of physical space from set theory and topology—beginning from the empty set and non-well-founded sets—and identifies mass with disruptions in homeomorphic mappings between successive Poincaré sections. These speculative foundations-of-physics proposals lie outside the physical mainstream.<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> * [http://rad2000.free.fr/hpbonaly.htm Homepage]<br /> * [https://www.researchgate.net/scientific-contributions/A-Bonaly-6875852 ResearchGate profile]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Scientist|Bonaly Andre]]<br /> [[Category:Worldwide List of Dissident Scientists]]</div>
