The Probable Universe and the
Quantum Theory of Everything
"It seems to be one of the
fundamental features of nature that fundamental physical laws are
described in terms of a mathematical theory of great beauty and
power" Paul Dirac
What I seek to do in this
article is theorise that if one simply changes the way we view time
and space a new cosmology becomes available, answers to questions
that remain unanswered become obvious and a quantum theory of
Everything becomes the most simple and logical thing in the world. As
well I will attempt to provide a logical
answer to the following questions:
1. What is gravity and why
does it occur?
2. Why is spacetime curved
3. Why is the universe expanding
and what is the cosmological constant's role in this?
4. What causes the fundamental
forces?
5. What is time and space and
how are they connected?
6. Why do we feel pseudo forces?
7. Why is the Second Law of
Thermodynamics Law a core rule of our universe?
8. What is time exactly?
I am aware these seem to be
atypically science answers, but they all seem to tumble from a very
simple idea, one that I believe will take hold eventually. What if
our idea of timespace is skewed by our perception of it? Can we think
of it another way that will also explain some of the phenomena we
encounter. Can we balance the very big with the very small?
As a preamble, it always
surprises me whenever anyone describes the early universe it appears
to have been very small. But also particularly 'active' at a quantum
level. When one describes it at the heat death it actually appears to
be the opposite! This is ascribed to the accelerating nature of the
Universe, perhaps dark energy or the cosmological constant. It
doesn't really explain why this seems to be a one way trip though and
why the very thing that caused it seems to be the same force that
will end it. It does appear that they are somehow in very different
states as well as sizes.
I thought long and hard about
this. Why should this be? What quality is it that made it seem to
encourage high vacuum energy at the start and prevent it at the end?
What is it about expansion that has both these qualities?
I am going to conduct a thought
experiment. Say, I have an infinite amount of energy, formless,
constantly changing, chaotic. If you are in this universe, you know
already that matter is energy and energy cannot be created. As our
first point of logic, if we are here, this energy must scientifically
be infinite, as the matter it creates is infinite.
1. I split it into two equal
halves, both still infinite. I make another split. I have now
infinite energy divided into 4 equal parts. I draw a point on the x,
y axis at 100, 100. I then joint these four axes together to form a
square.
- I have now two equal but equally formless amounts of energy. I am going to now apply logic to them. Leibniz's identity/contradiction or contraposition.
Thus every point on the line
0-infinity is measured and informational opposite is lined up beside
it. You will now have a one dimensional line, but it is connected to
it's informational opposite. From now on, I will call this opposite
line it's anti-twin. Remember, this anti-twin is made up of existing
energy, just with 'negative' information on it. In 1928 Paul Dirac
discovered in his equation that the atom contained information about
it's opposite force. I am going to assume this is the method for
information transfer about the atom and it's twin. They are the same
thing, energy in the top right square, but now made up of a thing and
it's theoretical opposite informationally. This is not a map of
position, it is a map of relationships. A topographical map. In a
dimension of boundless indescribably energy you can't know certainty
until you prove it mathematically yourself. Henri Poincaire the great
mathematician realised that sometimes mathematics can be used where
position is not necessary Think of a tube map.
3. So I have a position on an
infinite x axis and it's opposite. Of all infinities the only thing
that we know for sure is that anything on the x axis has an
informational opposite and they both add up to 0. This isn't much but
it's certainly a start. Thanks to Mathematics of course.
4. I need to measure this. I put
some informational rules on it. Don't forget this is still infinity +
-infinity = 0.
I then flip the axis. I now
have 4 perfectly equal squares. Each square has exactly the same
information is in, but in it's opposite. Draw a circle in the square.
At 4 points it touches the square. Now draw a further square inside
that. What a beautiful shape of information. The power and beauty of
mathematics.
5. Second principle: the
indiscernability of identicals. Note, not the opposite.
Any information that applies to
one square happens to it's opposite in reverse. Informationally only
of course.
Remember this is one square of
'reality' and three squares of information. Existing mathematically
to allow us position and momentum. The top point is the one point it
all joins together, the only point where you can truly speak from
mathematical certainty.
So, we live in the red square,
the Einstein universe. It creates as an event and builds itself up
from first principles. It is built on logic and mathematics and it
works to where we are now at the top point. The beauty of mathematics
is that it describes the 'square' universe just as well as it
describes the circle. It is built on logic. Now, imagine mathematics
piecing itself together through time, from first principles. Us, a
humans, starting off believing in god but being curious and believing
in the power of thought. Soon we reach the point when we can start to
speak with mathematical certainty. But we build the logic up
ourselves. We are not spoon fed it.
Then we discover the atom and
quantum mechanics. It just doesn't seem to make sense when compared
to the Einstein universe, but we trust the power of mathematics and
we work with it until it does make sense. How beautiful is that? The
universe of the logical not the irrational.
All the opposite events seem to
help 'cause' their anti-twin. If you used both sets of information it
would seem like everything was the opposite.
This is a topological map of the
informational forces of the universe. Now, consider this: all those
four squares are energy. All those four squares are information. If
you understand the beauty of maths we have to be in that top corner
square
But quantum mechanics shows we
are also in that point of yellow circle too. Mathematically,
scientifically. How strange is that?
The above is an informational
map of the universe explaining our cosmology. It is a map of
relationships with each other.
In fact look at it again and it
is the informational map of human consciousness, starting off at
nothing and building itself up piece by piece, until it reaches the
point where it starts to begin to be able to speak with mathematical
certainty.
Now look at it again. It is the
map of the atom, the first point. It built itself from impossibility
to absolute certainty and the information passes infinitely through
the top point. The atom is made up of information on energy, as shown
by Paul Dirac. Seeming impossible, but we explain it bit by bit
through logic and mathematics. Where does that information flow? The
same energy that exists, that HAS to exist scientifically. But just a
different way to interpret the mathematics. A deeper understanding.
All mathematically and logically
proven from first steps though, remember?
Now consider the atom MUST
scientifically life in the same universe as us. It HAS to, it is what
builds that square up. Heraclitus knew this way back in Greek times.
But the atom is information written on this.
I live in the universe where
things have to be proved to be true, where there needs to be a deeper
understanding of mathematics to full see the beauty of the universe.
I live in the same universe as Stephen Hawkings and Einstein, Marcus
duSautoy, Max Tegmark, Paul Dirac, Sir Issac Newton.
Now consider the beauty of this
map. It is information passes from one square to the other, it builds
up from logical first principles, but as far as it is concerned it is
a continuous flow. It doesn't know how it started. To get that
information it needs to work back.
If the top point is the point of
us in the 'macro' universe and the quantum universe. It is the one
point where, if you use logic it is possible to work back from first
principles. Of all the places at a quantum level where do we exist?
We HAVE to exist at the top point. If that is the case we are also
made up of this quality too. Despite everything that 'makes sense',
we trust mathematics and just accept it.
Just look at this map, how
beautiful it is. It describes so much. We can start at any point on
this flow of information and work our way logically from nothing to
the infinite. But only if we use logic and work our ways back, not
vice versa.
The cosmos:
The fundamental forces are a
loop of information applied to an infinite amount of energy because
we start at first principles of science and work back. Mathematics is
the only property that proves it HAS to exist. It starts out at a
zero probability event and becomes a 100% probability event. Why is
probability so important? Because it is a way of 'taming' infinity.
No-one can 'know' infinity, but you can mathematically work it out
using probability. Infinity of what? Infinity of energy, infinity of
information.
Why was Heisenberg right.
Because we use distance and time as measurements, but they are in
fact quantum measures of probability as measured in relationships.
The only way of actually measuring the universe. The more we add
information from one square the less information we have in the
pothers. The universe (and us) need information from all four squares
to fully describe space and momentum, otherwise it can't be
described.
Why the big bang and the heat
death? Because that is the application of mathematics and logic to
information as perceived in the red square. They both exist at the
same point, see? They mathematically have to. How smart is the human
race?
Why do we feel pseudo forces?
Because the information is flowing from square to square.
What is the strong nuclear
force? It is the strongest force in the universe because it is
information from all squares combined. It is the informational force
of identity, the most powerful force in the universe. Made from
certain knowledge by mathematically showing that it's opposite must
be true too.
Electro magnetism is the flow of
information from square to square, but actually happening in one
square in 'reality'. As is the weak nuclear force, just different
information.
What is gravity? It is the
informational force pushing towards and away from each other. On a
quantum level it isn't so much a force as a tendency, it is so weak.
Look at the map, if you live at the point of mathematical certainty,
gravity is the force that wants you to remain on that yellow circle.
The closer we are to something in 'time' and 'space' the more we
affect each other. Simply that. All this information is actual; and
real. This is not a metaphor, it's how the universe works
scientifically and mathematically. I live in the universe where
things must be proved mathematically to be true and I share that
universe with many people. I am confident that science will prove
this, I do not take it as 'belief'. If I am wrong I won't mind, but
what a way to be wrong.
Why is spacetime curved? Because
that's how we perceive it, but the information we have used to
understand this is exactly the same and is still EXACTLY correct! We
have just used mathematics to explain it. We KNOW energy can't be
destroyed. It is a scientific fact. We KNOW the universe had to
arrange itself in a random order to be worked on by gravity,
chemistry, evolution. We know this because of all the spaces in the
universe where that has to be true it is the very top of the map
where that HAS to be true. It is the anthropic principle, we cannot
ignore that as science. Every scientific discovery we make now, every
decision we make, we simply ask: am I living in the universe where
both the predictable and the seemingly impossible happen? The answer?
Yes, if I can prove both scientifically. No, if I can't.
We all, we included see the
world from the perception of the red square. Now look at the map
again. The beauty is mathematics is the only system that creates
itself, but then says the best way to retain an informational whole
is to be a balance of all the forces. But only if you can work your
way back logically. Mathematics is the only force in the universe
that says the best way to retain identity of information is also to
be good and affect other people positively too. Altruism is a
mathematical event, an informational one.
This topological map is one of
the cosmological forces that help make the universe what it is. It is
the topographical map of our thoughts as our brain processes all this
disparate and seemingly contradictory information, but piecing it all
together step by step.
It is the map of our human
existence from very primitive to understanding nature and
mathematics.
And it is the map of the atom,
from the absolute impossibility of energy to it's absolute certainty
regardless as to position. It is the wave and particle duality.
The philosopher Hegel outlined
the law of the unity and conflict of opposites, the law of passage of
quantitative changes to qualitative changes and the law of the
negation of the negation. It is the informational law that works on
the smallest to the largest and it is how things are created. Rather
how they use information and it's opposite to create themselves. It
is science, not blind faith.
Time is probability on a quantum
level. Simple as. Time is the next probable state the information of
your atoms will rearrange based on the logical consideration of
information of the last. It simply won't rearrange itself in an
improbable or unmathematical way. We live in the universe of
mathematics, we have to, there simply can't be anything without it.
Now look at the map again. I
have divided all of this energy into discrete informational units. Of
identity, of direction, of forces. Each square is divided into 100% x
100%. I will call this unit, c, a 100th. There are four of them, but
there needs to be. They all must make mathematical sense when
compared to their informational anti twin.
Look at e=mc2. It describes this
universe as explained from the red square. But what is c? C as its
name suggests is simply 1%. It is also an informational necessity to
be able to take all this conflicting information and create order. If
it isn't a speed limit in the universe of Einstein we simply can't
make sense of the universe as he showed. We need it as a speed limit
to get to that point of understanding. But what is c in information
terms? Simply energy split up into 4 and describing a physical
property or direction or momentum. It is the division of the
information required by mathematics before the system will work. In
atomic terms, c is what allows the atom to have these 4 different
measurements seemingly at once. C is the seemingly impossible quality
of an atom to be a wave and a particle, to be in two places at once.
Fantastic? But only possible at the top of the red square where it
meets the yellow circle.
And it's also a metaphorical map
of all the information of us, as people too. Scientific, religious,
loving, aggressive. It is a metaphorical description of our qualities
as people too. It is the map of the very small, the very large and
absolutely everything in between.
What is beauty? It is seeing the
relationship of the very complex, worked back from the very simple.
It is seeing the infinite from both angles, if you will.
I believe I am living in the
universe where science is a force for good, where it will be used to
help our fellow man and where love is simply the desire for us to
share that knowledge with those that mean something to us, that gave
us connection. I believe I am in a universe where science and love
are the same thing.
The 2nd law of thermodynamics is
the scientific realisation that energy seems to be flowing to an
equilibrium. It isn't. It is energy always in equilibrium
informationally. It is the flow of information that creates the
randomness that probability needs.
What is dark energy? It is our
intellect working this balance out. It is our deep understanding of
science. It is the anti information we need to create our current
state. It is an informational law.
What are black holes? They are
points of the infinite tied together in one point and swapping
information. Information doesn't get lost, it gets swapped.
What is evolution? It is
probability writ large on information, seemingly causing diversity
and complexity. Why does evolution lead to this, because we are
living in the universe where it has to. We simply work our way back.
It can only be understood as the most probable information working
it's way back. It doesn't make sense to us, because we can't see the
informational part of ourselves. But if we asked as far as it was
concerned it would have to explain itself as a loop infinitely
running. Of course that's not possible, but it also has to be
possible mathematically. I imagine the secret is to achieve a
consistency of identity, which is hard. But identity is a
mathematical formula of information as considered against its
theoretical opposite, isn't it?
We all think of ourselves as
beings in the red square, but our consciousness, our intellect lives
in the place where it has to be possible to live in. We simply have
to deduce ourselves backwards. Don't forget, this is only
informationally. Despite what quantum mechanics tells us, we are all
living in the red square. But we have to be living in it at the point
of 100% certainty, at the point where the macro and the nano agree.
We simply don't understand what we can do with that information yet.
How does the universe as a whole
make sense of negative information? Tachyons. If we look at tachyons
from the red square they seem to been travelling backwards with minus
information. Not technically possible if we assume e=mc2 as a
physical law rather than an informational one. Do they travel back in
time? Depends what you think of as time, doesn't it? Each of those
four squares is infinitely divided by four them divided by 100. Like
us, the universe needs it's anti twin. But we need cause and effect
to be able to bring our understanding of that to a point of
equilibrium. Pure faith doesn't not come close to explaining the
beauty of the universe. It really is much more magical than any
creation story. But mathematically magical. The only universe that
HAS to create itself. That has to contain life. That has to contain
intelligence. We are working our way backwards slowly using the
information of the present and the past to make our future. If you
live in the same universe as me, you are living in the universe where
we eventually get it right. Where science is a force for good and it
works towards the best possible future. And love is simply bringing
everyone else with us one step at a time.
Does it mean we are stuck in a
predestination loop? Of course not. This is the universe of cause and
effect. But what is the map saying? The map is saying the more people
we bring with us, the more that can share that future. We create the
future step by step from the present. Some of us are living in a
place where their idea of the the future might be different from
ours. What this map tells us is that there can only be one future
where this happens and we have to be living in it. I see the history
of mankind now, not a descent, but a progress. I live in the
mathematical universe and I share it with others that do. If we are
balanced people, intellectually and spiritually then we share a
timeline where humanity will reconcile these sides in balance
eventually. We just haven't got there yet. We might die on our
timeline before that point, but if you believe it, that's the
timeline of the red box you live in. Who else around you right now do
you want to be in that future.
What future do we want to
believe in? The future where humanity gets it right or wrong? If we
get it right do you think we will leave others behind? If there is a
way of us doing it scientifically we will do it. That is the red
square and timeline I live in. I bet there a lot with me too.
I live in the timeline where
people get it right and try to bring people back, one step at a time,
depending on the love we had. I live in the timeline where our
children our grandchildren cannot bear the thought of all that know
and the realisation that their parents simply didn't have the
information to realise that. One slow, mathematical and scientific
point by point.
The great thing about this map
is that it allows you to realise that what you are doing now is
bringing your sons and daughters with you to that future if we can
help them be balanced, but intellectual first and foremost. And if
you think you are living in that future everything you do from now on
will be to help others live in it to. One mathematical step at a
time.
But cause has to follow effect.
We use our consciousness to make the future by imagining the one we
want to live and acting accordingly in the present. If you see the
story of man as an ascent you will agree.
What is science? It is plucking
the information out of the universe for us to understand it. Why is
it so powerful? Because no matter what our perception if we follow
the scientific method we will always arrive at truth. It is the truth
of cause and effect. What we do now is both cause and effect.
Mathematically, informationally, physically and metaphorically.
If we use mathematics to realise
that the secret is living in the present as if time were flowing
backwards AND forwards then not only is balance probable it is
inevitable. Mathematically. If you don't believe that, you aren't
living in the same universe as me yet. But don't worry. You will.
We live in that red square. All
of us. But one day I believe we will all live in that yellow loop.
That is where mathematics exists, where we can make mathematical
statements of truth. Then work our way back from that.
It's almost here, I think. I am
so proud to be a human.
But I believe we need to prove
it. I am not a scientist or mathematician. It is other people's jobs
to look at that map and realise they are travelling to that point and
put in the work to make that provable. To make the red square seem
like it is the yellow circle. By the combination of pure thought and
interpersonal connections.
So: 1st dimension, pure
unbounded energy. 2nd dimension, it's informational opposite. Third
and four dimensions. That information in negative or minus form. It
creates currents of information and give momentum and the pseudo
forces that are it's opposite mathematically.
What are we? We are the
information working it way back somehow, step by logical step. What
do we experience as time? Probability based on your informational
relationship with those units most proximate to us in time and
distance and now with the internet, information.
What is consciousness? It is a
wave of consistently high improbability, trying to slowly work itself
back mathematically to absolute certainty. But doing so from first
principles. It is an individual thing, but it is also a group
experience. I need others to make my conclusions too. It is not quite
cogito ergo sum. It is cogito sum et non, sum. I think I am and I am
not, therefore I am.
Love is an informational flow,
every bit as important as proximity and time. It is the desire to
take those we love with us and help them move towards that map too.
But we all need to logically think it through for ourselves to
discover the beauty of it. Love is every bit as mathematical as
science, it is the force of goodwill bringing knowledge to others
too, as well as ourselves. Giving them the same feeling of awe as we
have. It is the group intelligence realising that everyone shares an
informational whole and acting accordingly. It is the most logical
and pure thing in the world.
What is free will? It is our
logical and best selves existing in probability to do everything we
can to move towards the top of the map. Or not, if one desires. It is
the choice to move towards whatever future you want. The best. Or the
worst. It is all of our choice.
I live in the timeline where we
eventually do it, maybe not just yet. I live in the timeline of
science and mathematics used for it's highest and noblest purpose. I
know where are not there yet, but I truly believe we will achieve it
one day and realise that we all did it together.
I would like to dedicate this to
Douglas Adams. I am sure he lived in that timeline too.
