I do not think that one has to pay attention to other point of views on this fundamental topic. Of course, if he is working in Science, not in philosophy or other branches of human knowledge. Sorry, if some people do not like this.Following

All we have are models of a given class of phenomena, and these models are RIGHT WITH KNOWN PRECISION! Increasing the precision, or changing the domain of application, we are discovering the need to change somehow the model - to put it in correspondence with the reality with a NEW PRECISION. This does not mean that the old model is wrong. This way we simply are starting to understand the precise domain of application of the old model. The Newton mechanics is the best example.Following

Answer added in Black Holes39 Can a massive gas cloud become a black hole without undergoing any type of fusion reaction?By Prakash Kumar · Vinoba Bhave UniversityPlamen Fiziev · Sofia University "St. Kliment Ohridski"I do not think so. 1.

The theory of the gravitational collapse is quite unclear at present, see for example the large amount of articles by Pankaj S. Joshi and coauthors in the arXuv (in particular arXiv:1107.3749 ) and his book "Gravitational Collapse and Spacetime Singularities". In particular in a series of recent works bay many authors the Penrose hypothesis of cosmic censorship was proved to be wrong, which is a key element for the theory of creation of black holes. 2. There are old problems with the gravitational collapse of the real matter. It is well known, that in the black hole interior almost all physical conservation laws are invalid. Hence, we have two possible solutions: to think, that these laws indeed are broken (for example, the law of conservation of baryon number, which is well checked experimentally with great precision), or to think that the collapse to a black hole is forbidden by the conservation laws. 3. The process of the black hole creation is a process of conversion of the matter to curvature of space-time (with conservation of energy, angular momentum and electric charge, only). It is not possible to convert the matter in some smooth way to the black hole, destroying its basic and well established properties.Following

Article: J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 29 (1996) 7619--7624. Printed in the UK Comment on path integral derivation of Schr odinger equation in spaces with curvature and torsion
P. Fiziev, H. Kleinert[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We present a derivation of the Schr odinger equation for a path integral of a point particle in a space with curvature and torsion which is considerably shorter and more elegant than that commonly found in the literature. 1.10/2001; -

Article: Minimal Model of Dilatonic Gravity and Cosmological Constant
P. Fiziev[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We consider: minimal scalar-tensor model of gravity with Brans-Dicke factor $\omega(\Phi)\equiv 0$ and cosmological factor $\Pi(\Phi)$; restrictions on it from gravitational experiments; qualitative analysis of new approach to cosmological constant problem based on the huge amount of action in Universe; determination of $\Pi(\Phi)$ using time evolution of scale factor of Universe.10/2000; -

Article: Cosmological Constant or Cosmological Potential
P. Fiziev[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In the framework of a model of minimal of dilatonic gravity (MDG) with cosmological potential we consider: the relations of MDG with nonlinear gravity and string theory; natural cosmological units, defined by cosmological constant; the properties of cosmological factor, derived from solar system and Earth-surface gravitational experiments; universal anty-gravitational interactions, induced by positive cosmological constant and by Nordtved effect; a new formulation of cosmological constant problem using the ratio of introduced cosmological action and Planck constant $\sim 10 ^{122}$;qualitative analysis of this huge number based on classical action of effective Bohr hydrogen atoms; inverse cosmological problem: to find cosmological potential which yields given evolution of the RW Universe; and comment other general properties of MDG.09/2000; -

Article: New Numerical Algorithm for Modeling of Boson-Fermion Stars in Dilatonic Gravity
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We investigate numerically a models of the static spherically symmetric boson-fermion stars in scalar-tensor theory of gravity with massive dilaton field. The proper mathematical model of such stars is interpreted as a nonlinear two-parametric eigenvalue problem with unknown internal boundary. We employ the Continuous Analogue of Newton Method (CANM) which leads on each iteration to two separate linear boundary value problems with different dimensions inside and outside the star, respectively. Along with them a nonlinear algebraic system for the spectral parameters - radius of the star $R_{s}$ and quantity $\Omega $ is solved also. In this way we obtain the behaviour of the basic geometric quantities and functions describing dilaton field and matter fields which build the star.05/2000; -

Article: Boson stars in massive dilatonic gravity
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We study equilibrium configurations of boson stars in the framework of a class scalar-tensor theories of gravity with massive gravitational scalar (dilaton). In particular we investigate the influence of the mass of the dilaton on the boson star structure. We find that the masses of the boson stars in presence of dilaton are close to those in general relativity and they are sensitive to the ratio of the boson mass to the dilaton mass within a typical few percent. It turns out also that the boson star structure is mainly sensitive to the mass term of the dilaton potential rather to the exact form of the potential.
