Yah. Liquids and solids can be put under pressure, but they cannot be compressed. At least not with normal forces.

In any case, assuming the magnets surrounding the central magnet, as per the OP, did in fact have magnetic fields strong enough to do such a thing, they still must be both supported and pushed inward. Using magnets to try and mess around with Einstein/Hawking physics does not let you ignore Newtonian physics.

Even so, assuming you had a support structure capable of handling the job(say a scaffold arrangement wrapped in a stasis field, if I may pinch an idea from Niven)...at some point before the material of the center magnet "becomes smaller than it's Schwarzschild Radius," it will undergo a change in nature as the electrons in it's atoms are forced into the protons in the nuclei, whereupon they will merge and their charges will cancel out, leaving nothing but neutrons. Neutrons are heavy, as sub-atomic particles go, but they have no electrical charge, so they can sit all crowded together in one incredibly dense lump. This is called degenerate matter, or Neutronium, and it is what Neutron Stars are made of. The important thing here is that this fictional central magnet, now compressed to degenerate matter but not yet a black hole, still has a surface gravity of several million Gs.

I could go on, but do I really need to?

Time travel is the ultimate tech a civilization/species can acquire. Imagine what you can do once you get it. You can insert yourself in any point in the past or future of your species or another's with dramatical consequences. This would require certain cosmic ethics. I think we are far from that point.

Sadly , its not possible

Travelling back in time, lets say, before your birth would cancel your existence in the moment you move backward in time,erasing you from the present , automaticaly make you cease to exist, because,before your own birth, you didnt existed

The Philadelphia Experimen was an experiment attempting to render a warship invisible , using the unified field theory, it have nothing to see with time travel , and the theory about the Philadelphia traveling in time is totaly BS
