The mathematical universe
... The problem of the relationship between the foundations of mathematics and physics is not new. Some recent work on the subject is described in [4,5,6] and in [7,8,9]. In particular the work of Tegmark [8] is is quite explicit in that it suggests that the physical universe is a mathematical universe. ...

... In this case the time values of a lattice are seen in a parent frame as rational number states of a hybrid system. It is of interest to compare the view here with that in [8]. Tegmark's explicitly stated view is that real numbers, as labels of space and time points, are distinct from the points themselves. ...
This work is based on the field of reference frames based on quantum representations of real and complex numbers described in other work. Here frame domains are expanded to include space and time lattices. Strings of qukits are described as hybrid systems as they are both mathematical and physical systems. As mathematical systems they represent numbers. As physical systems in each frame the strings have a discrete Schrodinger dynamics on the lattices. The frame field has an iterative structure such that the contents of a stage j frame have images in a stage j-1 (parent) frame. A discussion of parent frame images includes the proposal that points of stage j frame lattices have images as hybrid systems in parent frames. The resulting association of energy with images of lattice point locations, as hybrid systems states, is discussed. Representations and images of other physical systems in the different frames are also described.
... Positions on this question range from neurobiological reductionism, viewing mathematics as a cognitive product entirely contingent on the activity of our brain [10,11], to mathematical Platonism defending the independent existence of mathematical objects, or even postulating a 'third realm' (neither physical nor mental), populated by such eternal objects [10,12]. Others have gone even further and have directly associated physical reality with mathematical structures, arguing that 'our universe is mathematics' [13]. ...
... To summarise, the Multiverse scenario is an example of an idea based on potential speculative outcomes of an incomplete theory under construction and without unambiguous empirical confirmation (we question whether the consequence of an incomplete theory can be legitimately called a 'prediction') 13 of where the theory is implicitly taken to be 11 See, for example, [24] for arguments by other authors not proponents of the Multiverse idea. 12 It is known that dynamical systems can have multiple attractors, but it is extremely difficult to imagine a dynamics arising from a physical theory which gives rise to 10 100 to 10 500 number of compactified end states. ...
... In fact it is very likely that the number of viable compactifications is in fact far smaller, which raises the question of how they are selected! 13 Compare the way in which inflation 'predicts' eternal inflation and the formation of an infinite number of universes with the way in which General Relativity predicted the (now observationally confirmed) existence of gravitational waves, or the way in which the wave theory of light predicted a bright spot at the centre of a shadow cast by a round object. Note that inflation itself was originally postulated as an inference to the best explanation, in order to account for the observed lack of magnetic monopoles, the flatness of spacetime, and the homogeneity and isotropy of the observable universe. ...
Infinity, in various guises, has been invoked recently in order to `explain' a number of important questions regarding observable phenomena in science, and in particular in cosmology. Such explanations are by their nature speculative. Here we introduce the notions of relative infinity, closure, and economy of explanation and ask: to what extent explanations involving relative or real constructed infinities can be treated as reasonable?
... In HTUM, mathematical operations are considered integral components of the universe's dynamic structure. This unified approach encourages us to reconsider the foundational principles of mathematics and their application in cosmology [217]. By viewing mathematical operations as interconnected, we can develop more holistic and efficient solutions to complex problems in physics, engineering, and computer science [218]. ...
... HTUM can be further developed into a robust theoretical framework by addressing potential criticisms and focusing on future research directions. Developing a rigorous mathematical formalism based on the conceptual framework will enhance the model's explanatory power and provide a solid foundation for guiding future theoretical and experimental investigations [217]. This approach will strengthen HTUM's position within the scientific community and inspire new approaches to understanding the fundamental nature of the universe. ...
... Example: HTUM might suggest that mathematical truths are not objective and immutable but are fluid and interconnected, reflecting the universe's dynamic nature [217]. ...
The Hyper-Torus Universe Model (HTUM) is a novel framework that unifies quantum mechanics, cosmology, and consciousness, proposing that the universe is a higher-dimensional hyper-torus containing all possible states of existence. This paper explores the fundamental concepts and implications of HTUM, which suggests that the universe is a quantum system in which all possible outcomes are inherently connected, with consciousness playing a crucial role in actualizing reality. HTUM addresses critical challenges in modern physics, such as the nature of quantum entanglement, the origin of the universe, and the relationship between mind and matter. By introducing concepts like singularity, quantum entanglement at a cosmic scale, and the self-actualization of the universe, HTUM provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the fundamental nature of reality. This paper discusses the mathematical formulation of HTUM, its implications for quantum mechanics and cosmology, and its potential to bridge the gap between science and philosophy. HTUM represents a significant shift in our understanding of the universe and our place within it, inviting further research and exploration into the nature of reality and consciousness.

... As an analogy of another locational sort, consider a college student who lives in a dormitory where each room holds four roommates. If said student has the option of picking a room on the first floor versus the second floor, and then meets their year-long roommates accordingly, then we do not say that our student materializes their roommates around them, but rather that they merely moved to a location where one set of roommates are present, hence leaving the other set of roommates in the other possible 29 A disagreeing superposition, to be exact, as can be seen with the third postulate of the Aethus. 30 Due to the second postulate, specifically. ...
... 2. The neural network of the brain brings about a corresponding empirical Aethus which corresponds to the ghost degrees of freedom of the sensory intake system, for no reason other than the presence of such ghost degrees of freedom implies that they can be expressed in an Aethus, so therefore a corresponding Aethus is present to that extent. This is what we might generally refer to as a "Aethus expressional declaration," which may be regarded in a similar vein to the mathematical universe hypothesis [29], however only to the extent of analogy. Specifically, the analogy is that where the mathematical universe hypothesis takes every stated mathematical concept to have an ontological counterpart -such that even allowing a mathematical structure to appear epistemologically implies that it must also possess a generated ontological component -we might then argue a similar thing of Aethae, being that for a system to exist which even can be depicted in terms of an Aethus implies that there must exist a corresponding empirical Aethus which associates with that. ...
The quantum measurement problem is one of the most profound challenges in modern physics, questioning how and why the wavefunction collapses during measurement to produce a single observable outcome. In this paper, we propose a novel solution through a logical framework called Aethic reasoning, which reinterprets the ontology of time and information in quantum mechanics. Central to this approach is the Aethic principle of extrusion, which models wavefunction collapse as progression along a Markov chain of block universes, effectively decoupling the Einsteinian flow of time from quantum collapse events. This principle introduces an additional degree of freedom to time, enabling the first Aethic postulate: that informational reality is reference-dependent, akin to the relativity of simultaneity in special relativity. This reference point, or Aethus, is rigorously defined within a mathematical structure. Building on this foundation, the second postulate resolves the distinction between quantum superpositions and logical contradictions by encoding superpositions in a “backend” Aethic framework before rendering observable states. The third postulate further distinguishes quantum coherence from decoherence using a two-generational model of state inheritance, potentially advancing beyond simpler interpretations of information leakage. Together, these postulates yield a direct theoretical derivation of the collapse postulate, fully consistent with empirical results such as the outcome of the double-slit experiment. By addressing foundational aspects of quantum mechanics through a logically robust and philosophically grounded lens, this framework sheds new light on the measurement problem and offers a solid foundation for future exploration.
... The debate about the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics in the natural sciences started with Wigner's famous paper in 1960 (Wigner, 1960). Recent decades have seen a continuation of this discourse (Penrose, 1989;Livio, 2009;Vedral, 2010;Tegmark, 2014), relating to the ancient question dating back to Pythagoras and Plato: whether mathematics is a human invention or expresses truths with independent existence that are discovered. The positions in this vigorous debate range from 'mathematics is a pure human invention,' a set of rules for manipulating symbols, to the view that 'reality is mathematics' (Tegmark, 2014). ...

... Playfully, but usefully, we can say that the classical/constructive distinction is rather analogous to the bird/frog distinction discussed in quantum physics: "Everett's manyworlds [...] theory becomes easier to grasp when one distinguishes between two ways of viewing a physical theory: the outside view of a physicist studying its mathematical equations, like a bird surveying a landscape from high above it, and the inside view of an observer living in the world described by the equations, like a frog living in the landscape surveyed by the bird" (Tegmark, 2014). In minimalist linguistic theory, the bird sees the classical representation of an expression whilst the frog sees its constructive derivation. ...
... To the frog, the world is de scribed by Newton's laws of motion and gravitation. To the bird, it is described by the geometry of the pasta-a mathematical structure" (Tegmark, 2014). ...
Contrary to the prevailing assumption that language is “primarily a tool for communication rather than thought”, I argue that language is, to invoke Oscar Wilde, “quite useless”. Arguing from aesthetic philosophy and the minimalist program for linguistic theory, I conject that language, like art, is not “for” anything—it simply is , conforming to aesthetic rather than utilitarian principles. Of course, like art, language can be a powerful instrument of communication, but its function is not that of expressing thought; it creates thoughts, “primarily” for communicating with oneself, engaging in Popperian critical rationalism, making thoughts (e.g., sentences, constructive proofs) to match Platonic objects (e.g., propositions, classical proofs).
... It comes from the Greek word meaning "incline to learn". The world of mathematics is in a way like the physical universe that surrounds us (Tegmark, 2008). We can admire its greatness, contemplate its vastness, solve some of its mysteries , and even appreciate some of its gems without a formal or extensive study of all its many facets (Tegmark, 2008). ...

The study looked into the difficulties encountered by the students in the learning of Mathematics among freshmen of Adiong Memorial Polytechnic State College-Laboratory High School in Ditsa-an Ramain, Lanao del Sur. This study prepared the questionnaire for first-year high school students. The data gathered were tabulated, analyzed, and interpreted using the frequency and percentage distribution and the weighted mean. It was found that the instruction and teacher/teaching methodologies ranked as the main cause of the difficulties encountered by the students in learning Mathematics. In the light of the findings, conclusion, and implications of the study the following recommendations are given: (a) teachers in Mathematics must be able to check the kind of instruction and methodologies they were applying to their students; (b) parents should give their full support to their children. This can be done by coordinating and cooperating with the school where their children are studying; (c) school administrators must observe the teacher at least every grading so that they know their standing in terms of teaching; and (d) future researchers should conduct on the same study but of different coverage and different subject.
... Wigner gave up this idea in the 1970s after the process of decoherence was discovered by the physicist Dieter Zeh. 13 Decoherence did not only lead Wigner to change his mind, but also to render the Penrose-Hameroff scenario unlikely. As Max Tegmark has shown, the decoherence times for possible quantum superpositions in the brain are much shorter than standard time-scales used for conscious processes, thus leading to their irrelevance [32]. ...
... The idea of mathematical realism is put to an extreme by Max Tegmark, who entertains the idea that our Universe, in fact, consists of mathematical structures in a realistic sense [32]. In order to avoid problems with Gödel's theorems, he makes the assumption that only computable numbers are realized in Nature. ...
I investigate the question whether Gödel’s undecidability theorems play a crucial role in the search for a unified theory of physics. I conclude that unless the structure of space-time is fundamentally discrete we can never decide whether a given theory is the final one or not. This is relevant for both canonical quantum gravity and string theory.

... Almost by definition, another universe in the Multiverse cannot be observed. That is probably why [45,46] includes stuff outside of our particle horizon in his Level I Multiverse, even though, at least in some cosmological models, that horizon grows with time, i.e. more and more of the region now hidden comes into view. Most people wouldn't think of the stuff outside of our horizon as in another universe or as being part of the Multiverse, but at least Tegmark is consistent in his terminology. ...
... Here, we are concerned only with his Level II Multiverse. 13 ) Note that [46] discusses finetuning within the context of the Multiverse, while [31] discuss the Multiverse within the context of fine-tuning. The volume edited by [49] demonstrates that the Multiverse (again, if not noted otherwise, I mean Tegmark's Level II Multiverse) is now 13 Note that while the term "Multiverse" is often used for all, the four Levels according to Tegmark are quite distinct. ...
Few topics in cosmology are as hotly debated as the Multiverse: for some it is untestable and hence unscientific; for others it is unavoidable and a natural extension of previous science. A third position is that it is seen to follow from other theories, but those other theories might themselves be seen as too speculative. The idea of fine-tuning has a similar status. Some of this disagreement might be due to misunderstanding, in particular the degree to which probability distributions are necessary to interpret conclusions based on the Multiverse, especially with regard to the Anthropic Principle. I present undisputed facts, discuss some common misunderstandings, and investigate the role played by probability. The Multiverse is perhaps an important component necessary for interpreting cosmological and other physical parameters.
... In higher dimensions, possible multiverses, containing an infinite number of parallel universes, like ours, may be shown to exist 4 (Ragnarsson 2023d). Several other alternative multiverses have also been put forward (Greene 2011, Tegmark 2014. It seems that none of these suggestions are able to predict or verify more than few of the properties of the Observable Universe, and these will not be discussed here. ...
... If so, it means that the properties of our Universe really seem to be largely a mathematical construction from geometry and topology. This would also mean that all universes could be interpreted to be exactly the same, since their energy density obviously is the same, considering the validity of the Friedmann equations, and are in line with the propositions of multiverses, as one version of level II, by Tegmark (2014). Major cosmological constants could therefore possibly also be the same, possibly with change of sign. ...
In an expanding spherical 5-dimensional spacetime Universe, with its particular topology and analogues, several unexplained phenomena as dark matter, antimatter, horizon problem and flatness of space, may well appear to be just different aspects of the same matter and space, when measured and explained in our 3-dimensional world. Abstract: We propose that the Universe must be an expanding 4-dimensional hyper-sphere in a 5-dimensional spacetime. The spatial part differs from that of the Standard Model, and challenges the FLRW-metric. By studying the analogies of geometrical and topological properties of spheres of spatial dimension 4, we find that the Universe, as we observe it, must have a co-located double structure, and of which one part is observable in our 3-dimensional world. The analysis and application of the particular topological properties of the hyper-sphere seem to directly lead to solutions of many major unsolved problems in present-day cosmology. Applying this topology, phenomena that we call dark matter, antimatter, the horizon problem as well as absolute flatness of space, come as natural solutions in the 3-dimensional boundary of the hyper-sphere, the 3-sphere, as probably being different aspects of the same matter, while the physical properties of matter itself, such as quantum theory, are not considered here. Consequently, General Relativity and most other basic equations, are the same as in present cosmology. Since the Universe has a non-zero mass density, the expansion of its spatial hyper-radius is less than the speed of light, and therefore Special Relativity and Maxwell's equations, are applicable in the expansion. All together with the dynamics (time dimension), they form a general layout of the Universe, including a direct illustration of its spatial line-element (geodesic).
... The anthropic principle posits our universe suits life because we observe it [1], yet this skirts whether alternatives could sustain structure. Unlike Tegmark's Mathematical Universe Hypothesis (MUH), which assumes all mathematical structures exist [2], we hypothesize a singular constraint: our physics is the narrow set permitting stars, atoms, and time. Patterns like the golden ratio (φ ≈ 1.618) and constant fragility may signal this necessity. ...
The universe's mathematical framework-general relativity, quantum mechanics, and the Standard Model-relies on specific constants (e.g., G, α) and symmetries (e.g., Lorentz invariance). We propose the Constrained Cosmos hypothesis: these rules are not arbitrary but a highly constrained set, essential for physical stability. We test this via: (1) the golden ratio's (φ) ubiquity across scales, and (2) stability's sensitivity to perturbed constants. If φ marks stable systems and small changes disrupt coherence, our mathematics may be tightly bound. If not, viable alternatives expand. Either outcome advances our grasp of reality's foundations.
... AI based on Φ will think faster by 2030, solving SAT in n ∼ k 2 [21]. If correct, in 20-50 years-2045 to 2075-fractal dynamics could become a "theory of everything," uniting physics, math, and life's meaning [28]. This isn't just science-it's a path to understanding how one point birthed all we see. ...
Fractal Dynamics as an Ontological Foundation of Mathematics and Physics: From Singularity to Meaning
... Thus, our successors, in the far future, may give a new start to our universe in a kind of circular evolutionary process (see for circular universe models also (Gott, 1997, Steinhardt & Turok, 2007, Penrose, 2010, Vidal, 2012. The universe seems to be isomorphic to a mathematical structure (Stoica, 2013), as was also proposed by Lloyd (2006) andTegmark (2008). It seems that, based on natural law and its empirical constants, it may not have a real constant value in the evolution of the Universe. ...
In this article an analysis is carried out on the basic mechanisms inherent in the functioning of the living and conscious universe, that seems permeated by an elemental intelligence, the latter seen as a metaphysical concept. We highlight the substantiation of the metaphysical aspect into a quantum physical framework, by revealing a primordial acoustic quantum code that guides the fabric of reality as well as mediates Gravity and Dark Energy formation. These forces played a dominant role in the initial phase of cosmos creation, and are, at present, also hypothesized to be instrumental in human brain function. We submit that primordial proton/electron composite units, covered with a set of phonons (forming quasi-particles), exhibit attractive and repulsive charge interactions and/or generate chiral vortex dynamics, thereby generating the forces of gravity and anti-gravity (Dark Energy). Density fluctuation by sound particles (phonons) is preferred over photon oscillations, assuming dense super-fluid space conditions in the cosmos. The discrete frequency pattern of an “Acoustic Quantum Code of Resonant Coherence” was detected by us as a multi-scale spectrum, including the levels of cosmic Gravitational waves at the macro-scale, in measured oscillations of Zero-point Energy field, as well as in Electro-Magnetic frequencies that promote Entanglement and Superconductivity. With regard to brain function, an almost perfect frequency fit of our acoustic code spectrum was revealed for experimentally measured brain microtubule oscillations and blackbody radiation at the Planck scale, numerically supporting the so called Orchestrated Quantum Wave Reduction (Orch-OR) consciousness theory. The present results also confirm the Creation Field model for Life, proposed by others and framed as a “General Music Code”. The acoustic quantum code exhibits a scale-invariant correlation of (renormalized) EMF wave frequencies at the Planck scale, at the Zero-point Energy field-, Cosmic Microwave Background-, and Gravitational wave levels. A 4th spatial dimension is required in this context, with time constituting a 5-D universe space-time. So, a physically defined elementary intelligence of the cosmos is revealed, that, in superposition with human-created artificial intelligence (AI), is considered in the nexus of our Universe. Although present and future AI technologies may allow a major acceleration of human scientific endeavors, AI-generated products require stringent top-down and bottom-up quality surveillance through a protective “immune system” for the Internet. Conclusion: a reconstructive universe is proposed in which elemental intelligence functions as a ”recipe” (a set of rules), that also may enable the rebirth of our universe, in a time-reversed mode. Our Acoustic Quantum Code promotes Coherence and Resonance of vibration states and thereby could also be instrumental in biological evolution and the creation of first life. Thus, a dedicated information field of harmonic acoustics, guides the past and ongoing fabric of reality. The present concept provides a novel basis for the further study of macro- and micro-structures both in the cosmos and induction of consciousness brain states and reveals the crucial role of a growing Universal Consciousness, as supported by human observation and participation.
... The theory of multiple universes suggests that reality is not unique but consists of a vast set of parallel universes, each corresponding to a different possibility of an event or choice (Tegmark, M., 2009) (96). When we talk about parallel universes or extra dimensions, we think of something that is located elsewhere in the galaxy, somewhere very far from us, something we cannot have access to. ...
Exploring Love as a Fundamental Dimension of Reality: A New Interdisciplinary Vision In this paper, I propose a groundbreaking theory that views love not just as an emotion, but as a fundamental dimension of reality, alongside space and time. By integrating perspectives from physics, cuantum physics, biology, neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy, this theory opens new horizons in understanding how love (emotions) influences not only our physical reality but also collective consciousness and human health. The central question driving this research is: What would the world look like if love were a fundamental force governing not only emotions but also our physical and energetic interactions? And what impact would this have on our relationships, and even the scientific paradigm itself? My paper discusses: • The concept of love as an energetic dimension: Drawing analogies with the electromagnetic spectrum and the body’s bioelectric coherence, it suggests that love can be viewed as an organising force that influences reality on multiple levels. • The impact of love on health and collective consciousness: How love generates bioelectric coherence, affecting both physical and emotional health, and synchronizing biological rhythms between individuals to create a collective field of empathy. • Emotions’ involvement in healing and enhancing social connections. This work is not just a theoretical exercise, but an invitation to reconsider how we perceive love and its impact on our entire experience as human beings. The proposed theory could revolutionise fields such as mental health, emotional education, and even global peace. This research is just the first step in a broader journey that could fundamentally change the way we understand not only love but the entire reality we live in. If you are passionate about the intersection of science and emotion, philosophy and biology, I invite you to explore this paper and join the conversation about the dimension of the feelings in our universe.

This paper describes the effects of a complex scalar scaling field on quantum mechanics. The field origin is an extension of the gauge freedom for basis choice in gauge theories to the underlying scalar field. The extension is based on the idea that the value of a number at one space time point does not determine the value at another point. This, combined with the description of mathematical systems as structures of different types, results in the presence of separate number fields and vector spaces, both as structures, at different space time locations. Complex number structures and vector spaces at each location, are scaled by a complex space time dependent scaling factor. The effect of this scaling factor on several physical and geometric quantities has been described in other work. Here the emphasis is on quantum mechanics of one and two particles, their states and properties. Multiparticle states are also briefly described. The effect shows as a complex, nonunitary, scalar field connection on a fiber bundle description of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics. The lack of physical evidence for the presence of this field so far means that the coupling constant of this field to fermions is very small. It also means that the gradient of the field must be very small in a local region of cosmological space and time. Outside this region there are no restrictions on the field gradient.
... Konrad Zuse suggested that the universe is the output of a computation on a giant cellular automaton [11]. A growing number of physicists are now taking the view that information is the most fundamental thing [12], [13], an idea that can be traced back to John Wheeler who famously said "it from bit" [14]. In this view, all interactions between physical systems are information processing. ...
The concept of emergence is a powerful concept to explain very complex behaviour by simple underling rules. Existing approaches of producing emergent collective behaviour have many limitations making them unable to account for the complexity we see in the real world. In this paper we propose a new dynamic, non-local, and time independent approach that uses a network like structure to implement the laws or the rules, where the mathematical equations representing the rules are converted to a series of switching decisions carried out by the network on the particles moving in the network. The proposed approach is used to generate patterns with different types of symmetry.
... Once that was done, one could explore the mathematical properties of those features, and thereby analyze some aspects of the relationship between physics and information processing. Examples of such investigations include the many decades of work on the relationship between physics and computation [11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,22,24], the work on observation that started with Everett's seminal paper [25], and more recent work that considers what possible forms physical reality might have [26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36]. ...
I show that physical devices that perform observation, prediction, or recollection share an underlying mathematical structure. I call devices with that structure "inference devices". I present a set of existence and impossibility results concerning inference devices. These results hold independent of the precise physical laws governing our universe. In a limited sense, the impossibility results establish that Laplace was wrong to claim that even in a classical, non-chaotic universe the future can be unerringly predicted, given sufficient knowledge of the present. Alternatively, these impossibility results can be viewed as a non-quantum mechanical "uncertainty principle". Next I explore the close connections between the mathematics of inference devices and of Turing Machines. In particular, the impossibility results for inference devices are similar to the Halting theorem for TM's. Furthermore, one can define an analog of Universal TM's (UTM's) for inference devices. I call those analogs "strong inference devices". I use strong inference devices to define the "inference complexity" of an inference task, which is the analog of the Kolmogorov complexity of computing a string. However no universe can contain more than one strong inference device. So whereas the Kolmogorov complexity of a string is arbitrary up to specification of the UTM, there is no such arbitrariness in the inference complexity of an inference task. I end by discussing the philosophical implications of these results, e.g., for whether the universe "is" a computer.

Improbably the SCSC can never be proven via its internal axioms per Gödel incompleteness only falsified by proof of Mathematical Universe Hypothesis (MUH) unformalized claim external physical reality is the mathematical structure of a computable universe with infinite, 10 400 , or 10 500 parallel universe variations of measures of physical dimensions, constants, and laws [29]. ...

... This is not a worry against but from structuralists. by endorsing physicalism about mathematical entities (see, for example, Maddy [1990]; for related strategies, see French and Ladyman [2003], Tegmark [2006]). At the meantime, we may endorse nominalism (or anti-realism) about mathematical entities that cannot be plausibly construed in this way. ...
The persistent challenge of formulating ontic structuralism in a rigorous manner, which prioritizes structures over the entities they contain, calls for a transformation of traditional logical frameworks. I argue that Univalent Foundations (UF), which feature the axiom that all isomorphic structures are identical, offer such a foundation and are more attractive than other proposed structuralist frameworks.

... 4 See Rickles (2008, 2) for a looser characterization of such a method in relation to quantum gravity in physics. and still others apparently enjoy posing speculative paradoxes or bizarre counterfactuals (Dyson, Kleban, andSusskind 2002 andTegmark 2008). ...
This paper describes the main features and goals of the speculative work in modern sciences that has greatly accelerated since World War II due to the exponential increase in computing power and newly available theoretical and conceptual tools. It points to the long historical strand of speculative philosophical work in symbiosis with the sciences, suggests the reasons for its unexpected neglect in contemporary professional philosophy of science, why it should be a major approach, and why such pursuit is not inevitable. Finally, the paper outlines potential topics, fields, and tools for such collaborative work and argues it is likelier to be more fruitful today than at any point in the past hundred years.
... Perhaps we should simply reject the need to be realists about both physical and mathematical entities that are structural identical. For example, we may 'collapse' physical and mathematical structures by endorsing physicalism about mathematical entities (see, for example, [25]; for related strategies, see [14,41]). At the meantime, we may endorse nominalism (or anti-realism) about mathematical entities that cannot be plausibly construed in this way. ...
The persistent challenge of formulating ontic structuralism in a rigorous manner, which prioritizes structures over the entities they contain, calls for a transformation of traditional logical frameworks. I argue that Univalent Foundations (UF), which feature the axiom that all isomorphic structures are identical, offer such a foundation and are more attractive than other proposed structuralist frameworks. Furthermore, I delve into the significance in the case of the hole argument and, very briefly, the nature of symmetries.
... In Ref. [9] -where the author discusses the 'problem of time', the dichotomy between the notion of time as seen by us, 'god-like' observers and that based on the information available to the true observers is achieved by the consistent use of theorists' time and participant-observers' time. Likewise, in Ref. [10], the author uses the terms 'bird' and 'frog'. In the philosophy of physics literature, this vantage point of view is often referred to as 'Archimedean point', of punctus Archimedis. ...
Diffeomorphism invariance is a feature that gets sometimes highlighted as something with profound implications in the physics of spacetime. Moreover, it is often wrongly associated exclusively with General Relativity. The fact that diffeomorphism invariance and general covariance are used interchangeably does not help. Here, we attempt at clarifying these concepts.
... Exponential function is one of the important functions and is often used in mathematics (Clenshaw & Olver, 1980;Confrey & Smith, 1995;Rovira & Rovira, 2010). Exponential functions have been extensively studied by mathematicians (Bartlett, 1976;Lam & Goodman, 2000;Tegmark, 2008;Debnath, 2015;Salas et al., 2010). From the studies that have been conducted, several definitions have been produced in different forms of exponential functions, logarithms and limits. ...
This study aims to analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on changes in handsanitizer prices in Indonesia. This study is motivated by the increasing demand for handsanitiz-ers which has had an impact on price ratings. The method used is an explanatory survey with an exponential form approach for the demand function and Linear Cobweb Form for the supply function. The structure of the hand sanitizer market is assumed to be a perfectly competitive market. The results of the study indicate that despite changes in prices, the numerical analysis shows that prices are stable. The entry and exit of companies in the market does not affect price stability. This finding implies that after the pandemic the prices of handsanitizers will return to normal, so producers and consumers must remain rational.
... Quizás, la característica más llamativa de este nivel multiversal, es la posibilidad de universos que contengan combinaciones diferentes en sus aspectos más fundamentales, como son las leyes físicas que les gobiernan. Esto deriva de la propuesta de Tegmark (2007), acerca de un universo matemático, donde todas las combinaciones existentes a nivel matemático, se pueden dar a nivel físico, pues este es una representación matemática como parte de un conjunto mayor de posibilidades. ...
Uno de los principales criterios que utiliza el método científico
para establecer la pertinencia de una explicación o hipótesis
competidora con respecto a un evento en la realidad física, es
el principio de simplicidad o parsimonia científica. Este suele
implicar la prescindencia de entidades o hipótesis consideradas
innecesarias para la explicación de un fenómeno. Las raíces de este principio se suelen trazar hasta el filósofo nominalista medieval Guillermo de Ockham. En el presente trabajo, se pretende determinar el posible impacto de la concepción metodológica derivada de la Navaja de Ockham en torno a la hipótesis cosmológica de los multiversos, y realizar un recorrido por la visión crítica del cosmólogo, George F. R. Ellis en la discusión sobre la validez de la hipótesis multiversal en el plano de la física contemporánea.

We present a multidisciplinary, universal a pragmatic theory of causation based explicitly on five methodological causal seminal dimensions. The first one is called formal-mathematical-idealist theory and emerges as a meta-conceptual fusion of several existing causal theories. The second one is essentially based on a global, scientific and technical perspective. In fact, this can be considered as a meta-dimension encompassing a huge number of academic disciplines. The third dimension arises once more as combination of former approaches having the mind and its laws as the central paradigm. The fourth one is structurally related with our subjective phenomenological world and its objective impact on the external universe. And, finally, the fifth dimension is closely related with the first one, but more oriented toward the global implicit purpose of the universe and what this implies causally on the events in nature. We give several concrete examples elucidating the explanatory range of our theory.

... This closure implies that all physical events must be due to physical causes leading to the question as to the source of the freedom that goes beyond chance and necessity that cognitive agents appear to possess [5][6] [7]. If, on the other hand, we live in a mathematical universe and observers are zombies as has been suggested [8], one needs to explain the apparent influence of observers on physical systems.

p>Creating machines that are conscious is a long term objective of research in artificial intelligence. This paper look at this idea with new arguments from physics and logic. Observers have no place in classical physics, and although they play a role in measurement in quantum physics there is no explanation for their emergence within the framework. There is suggestion that consciousness, which is implicitly a property of the observer, is a consequence of the complexity of specific brain structures, but this is problematic because one associates free will with consciousness, which goes counter to causal closure of physics. Considering a nested physical system, we argue that even if the system were assumed to have agency, observers cannot exist within it. Since complex systems can be viewed in nested hierarchies, this constitutes a proof against consciousness as a product of complexity, for then we will have nested system of conscious agents. As the existence of consciousness in cognitive agents cannot be denied, the implication is that consciousness belongs to a dimension that is not physical and machine consciousness is unattainable. These ideas are used to take a fresh look at two well-known paradoxes of quantum theory that are important in quantum information theory.</p

Application of the Ramsey graph theory to the analysis of physical systems is reported. Physical interactions may be very generally classified as attractive and repulsive. This classification creates the premises for the application of the Ramsey theory to the analysis of physical systems built of electrical charges, electric and magnetic dipoles. The notions of mathematical logic, such as transitivity and intransitivity relations, become crucial for understanding of the behavior of physical systems. The Ramsey theory explains why nature prefers cubic lattices over hexagonal ones for systems built of electric or magnetic dipoles. The Ramsey approach may be applied to the analysis of mechanical systems when actual and virtual paths between the states in the configurational space are considered. Irreversible mechanical and thermodynamic processes are seen within the reported approach as directed graphs. Chains of irreversible processes appear as transitive tournaments. These tournaments are acyclic; the transitive tournaments necessarily contain the Hamiltonian path. The set of states in the phase space of the physical system, between which irreversible processes are possible, is considered. The Hamiltonian path of the tournament emerging from the graph uniting these states is a relativistic invariant. Applications of the Ramsey theory to the general relativity become possible when the discrete changes in the metric tensor are assumed. Reconsideration of the concept of “simultaneity” within the Ramsey approach is reported.

Tarski's undefinability theorem states that a formal system based on conventional predicate logic (PL) cannot talk about its own truth predicate. PL is, however, not the only formal language imaginable. In this paper, it will be shown that it is possible to construct a formal system, based not on PL but a more restrictive formal language, which is self-contained in the sense that within this system, we can both talk about and even define the system's own truth predicate. This hints at new ways of understanding Russell's, G\"odel's, and Tarski's discoveries, and new ways of tackling the vicious circles that give rise to these problems. This new system presents an interesting alternative foundational mathematical framework.
The Continuous Creation Model (CCM) reimagines reality through geometric principles , proposing that spacetime is an active scalar field shaped by pentagonal-hexagonal symmetry frustration. This document provides a structured analysis of its core principles, mathematical framework, physical implications, and challenges. Key equations include a master field equation that integrates fractional diffusion, symmetry attraction, memory effects , and rotational resolution. Hierarchical scaling laws connect quantum properties with cosmic structures, offering testable predictions ranging from isotope anomalies to modified gravity.
The Standard Hot Big Bang theory is successful from the observational point of view, yet a quite substantial list of unresolved problems still exists, resisting the endeavour of researchers who try to tackle these issues. Recent treatises claim that cosmology, and fundamental physics, currently faces a crisis. The initial conditions existing close to the Big Bang singularity, the value of the fundamental parameters of the Standard Model and of the constants of fundamental physics, as well as the form of the laws of nature remain without a satisfactory explanation. In this chapter, we will first review the proposal of Lee Smolin and Roberto Manabeira Unger, which essentially motivates a re-thinking regarding the notion of time, which would be considered as fundamental, irreducible and real. This suggested agenda for cosmology also considers the mathematical description of the world to be powerful indeed, but also that mathematics has immense limitations—it is claimed that mathematics cannot deal with phenomenal particularity as well as with time. We will subsequently present theoretical research done by the author, mostly at a heuristic level, which examines why fundamental aspects of mathematics would have difficulties when dealing with time and with the specificity of natural phenomena.
We take up Dedekind's question ''Was sind und was sollen die Zahlen?'' (''What are numbers, and would should they be?''), with the aim to describe the place that Conway's (Surreal) Numbers and Games take, or deserve to take, in the whole of mathematics. Rather than just reviewing the work of Conway, and subsequent one by Gonshor, Alling, Ehrlich, and others, we propose a new setting which puts the theory of surreal numbers onto the firm ground of ''pure'' set theory. This approach is closely related to Gonshor's one by ''sign expansions'', but appears to be significantly simpler and clearer, and hopefully may contribute to realizing that ''surreal'' numbers are by no means surrealistic, goofy or wacky. They could, and probably should, play a central role in mathematics. We discuss the interplay between the various approaches to surreal numbers, and analyze the link with Conway's original approach via Combinatorial Game Theory (CGT). To clarify this, we propose to call pure set theory the algebraic theory of pure sets, or in other terms, of the algebraic structures of the von Neumann universe. This topic may be interesting in its own right: it puts CGT into a broad context which has a strong ''quantum flavor'', and where Conway's numbers (as well as their analogue, the nimbers) arise naturally.
The article analyzes the idea of a multiplicity of worlds as virtual ones. Gained its popularity in the second half of the 20th century, such an approach states that the universe can be considered as information – as a set of bits and logical operations with them (or as program code). The hypothesis substantiates the information as a fundamental reality that gives rise to everything else (primarily, to all perceived as physical) – random simple programs that arise spontaneously from some initial state can give rise to the observed diversity and complexity. The article analyzes the philosophical concept of the multiplicity of worlds, which
states everything conceivable as possible and, therefore, real but implemented in other worlds. Peculiarly, its limitation shows us that it can be expanded by engaging the idea of a digital universe. In this case, not only conceivable by a person stays in focus, but generally, everything expressible with bits (units of information) and interactions between them (operations). This scenario allows the possibility of everything presentable as a sequence of ones and zeros. Such a possibility is substantiated to be equivalent to actuality – implementation of the unobservable in other worlds and implementation of other worlds. Such
a multitude of worlds model can be considered a limit model – as the most general and embedding all other many-worlds models.
Building upon the works of Gödel, Zalta ; and Benzmüller and Paleo, this paper introduces a formal system and testable system for Metaphysical Cosmology, referring to the study of the nature of existence, non-existence, and their interplay. The aim is to integrate metaphysics into a testable scientific framework, beyond speculative reasoning. The system abides by three principles which serve as a foundation for implementing a scientific methodology in metaphysics: (i) axioms must be minimized, incorporating Cartesian-like skepticism ; (ii) theorems must be inferred through proof-theoretic derivations ; (iii) theorems must be tested experimentally through computation. The system borrows from type-theoretic concepts and introduces new logical notions as tools for Metaphysical Cosmology, such as a metric-space-based predicate system, and a revised version of the existential quantifier. These tools offer an exhaustive approach to metaphysical entities and provide mechanisms to address contradictions. Formulae and equations depicting the structure of the Metaphysical Cosmos are inferred from the system through proof-theoretic derivations. Theorems inferred from the system have been tested using the theorem-prover Z3, encoded in Python, which determines whether a formula is satisfiable. While testing a theorem, its negation is inputted in Z3, and if the output displays that its negation is satisfiable, then the theorem is falsified and rejected, otherwise it is accepted as valid. This method thus follows the falsifiability criteria, as per Karl Popper, reinforcing testable scientific methodology in metaphysics. The code used in computational experimentation is given in full in the appendix for reproducibility.
how to derive truth from valid, and how to define valid.
Based on the relationship between mathematics and physics, this paper identifies the fundamental quantities of physics as specific scalars, vectors, spins, and tensors, and the equations of operation of these fundamental quantities from an axiomatic point of view. This is the starting point for the unification of mathematics and physics, and determines all existence of nature.
The concept of relative metric space-time as a necessary energy-momentum modulation of absolute coordinate space-time is proposed; the rates of change of the vectors of the fundamental quantities, the magnetic field H and the electric field E, with respect to time and space are defined as the fundamental energy and the fundamental momentum, and thus a consistency of the view of space-time and the expression of the energy-momentum of quantum mechanics and the theory of relativity is brought about. The supersymmetric form in which elementary particles are able to satisfy all invariants is proposed, which naturally results in the general relativistic field equations with quantum nature. On this basis, the converging and dispersing cyclic multiverse model, which meets the requirements of necessity and stability, was demonstrated, and the cosmological constant and dark energy problems were solved.
This paper pays special attention to the interfacing of the field of universal consciousness and our personal brain in relation to a potential afterlife and postulates a toroidal event horizon workspace of the brain that allows a symmetric 4-Dimensional (4-D) to 3-Dimensional (3-D) quantum information flux and holographic personal memory integration. The geometry of a 3-D brain, embedded in a 4-D realm, may explain the phenomena of functional brain binding, qualia, intuition, serendipity, synchronicity, extra-sensory perception, and other well-established parapsychological phenomena. Brain function is conceptualized as guided by the Zero-point Energy (ZPE) Field (ZPF)-derived pilot waves that support consciousness, even in the absence of neuronal activity, such as in Near-Death Experiences (NDE). The brain's toroidal organization exhibits quaternionic dynamics and thereby allows an opening to 4-D geometry and, consequently, to universal consciousness and the ZPF. This personal holographic workspace, that is associated with but not reducible to the brain, collects active information in a "brain event horizon," as an internal and fully integral model of the self. At death or transition of our material body, this personal mental knowledge domain dissociates from the body, yet it is retained because entangled and meaningful quantum information can never be destroyed. In NDE, this uncoupling is only temporal, but reveals universal consciousness in a fully transparent manner, since in this condition non-neuronal information processing is preserved. This preservation occurs through fractal semi-harmonic frequencies, from the ZPE field, that reflect an entangled personal register of each conscious being. The proposed concept, therefore, contradicts the tentative and promissory materialist solution to the mind-body problem. Instead, it substantiates the notion that the brain can act as a kind of "receiver" by filtering (sub)conscious states through holographic resonance with universal consciousness through specific coherent oscillation domains in the body. Yet, it is recognized that our self-consciousness can also act as a damping filter for information from this universal knowledge field. The latter aspect of a "dual filter theory" is apparently perturbed at states of modified brain function such as NDE, deep meditation, and use of psychomimetic drugs, that all expose us to an unknown cosmic perspective. The presence of a mental, field-receptive, resonant workspace, might be termed our "supervening double" (or "soul," not implying religious doctrine), and provides an interpretation framework for widely reported but poorly understood transpersonal conscious states. These may even imply that death can be conceived as a transition to another state of existence, yet we realize that all of us already belong to such an eternal domain in our present lives. Therefore, the present model may imply the potential for the survival of individual consciousness, qualifying conscious individuals as designated survivors and eternal beings. La survie de la conscience et l'anticipation d'une vie après la mort d'après la physique actuelle Résumé Cet article accorde une attention particulière à l'interface entre le champ de la conscience universelle et notre cerveau individuel en relation avec une éventuelle vie après la mort. Il postule un espace de travail toroïde de l'horizon des événements du cerveau qui permet un flux d'information quantique symétrique de 4 dimensions (4-D) à 3 dimensions (3-D) et une intégration holographique de la mémoire individuelle. La géométrie d'un cerveau tridimensionnel intégrée dans un domaine quadridimensionnel peut expliquer les phénomènes de liaison fonctionnelle du cerveau, de qualia, d'intuition, de sérendipité, de synchronicité, de perception extra-sensorielle et d'autres phénomènes parapsychologiques avérés. La fonction cérébrale est conceptualisée comme étant guidée par des ondes pilotes dérivées du champ d'énergie du point zéro (en anglais : ZPE Zero-point Energy, ZPF Zero-point Energy Field) qui assistent la conscience même en l'absence d'activité neuronale, comme dans les expériences de mort imminente (EMI). L'organisation toroïde du cerveau présente une dynamique de quaternions permettant ainsi une ouverture à la géométrie quadridimensionnelle et, par conséquent, à la conscience universelle et au ZPF. Cet espace de travail holographique personnel-à savoir associé au cerveau mais non réductible à celui-ci-recueille des informations actives dans un "horizon d'événements cérébraux", en qualité de modèle interne et totalement intégral du soi. Lors de la mort, ou transition, de notre corps matériel, ce domaine de connaissance mentale individuelle se dissocie du corps physique, mais il est conservé parce que l'information quantique intrinsèque, significative, ne peut être détruite. Dans l'EMI, ce découplage n'est que temporel, mais il révèle la conscience universelle de manière totalement transparente, puisque dans cet état, le traitement de l'information non-neuronale est conservé. Ceci se produit par le biais de fréquences semi-harmoniques fractales, issues du champ d'énergie du point zéro, qui reflètent un registre personnel intriqué de chaque être conscient. Le concept proposé contredit donc l'option de solution matérialiste, éphémère, momentanée, au problème corps-esprit. En effet, il étaye la notion selon laquelle le cerveau peut agir comme une sorte de "récepteur" en filtrant les états (sub)conscients par résonance holographique avec la conscience universelle, à travers des domaines d'oscillation cohérente spécifiques situés dans notre corps. Ceci étant, nous savons actuellement que notre conscience de soi peut également agir comme un filtre d'amortissement pour les informations provenant de ce champ de connaissance universelle. Ce dernier aspect de la "théorie du double filtre" est apparemment perturbé dans des états de fonction cérébrale modifiée, tels l'EMI, la méditation profonde et l'utilisation de drogues psychomimétiques, du moment qu'ils exposent à une perspective cosmique inconnue. La présence d'un espace de travail mental, réceptif au champ et résonnant, que nous pouvons appeler "double survenant" (ou "âme", sans toutefois impliquer de doctrine religieuse) fournit un cadre d'interprétation pour les états de conscience trans-personnels fréquemment signalés mais encore mal compris. Ces modèles peuvent même impliquer que la mort peut être conçue comme une transition vers un autre état d'existence, bien que nous puissions nous rendre compte, de notre vivant, que nous appartenons tous déjà à un tel domaine éternel. Par conséquent, le modèle que nous proposons peut impliquer le potentiel de survie de la conscience individuelle, qualifiant les individus conscients de survivants désignés et d'êtres éternels.
In System of Units, time, length, and mass are the most fundamental units of measure, corresponding to physical time, space, and energy, respectively, and they determine all other dimensions. The three natural constants, the speed of light c determines the invariance of the relationship between space and time, the Planck constant h determines the invariance of the relationship between energy and momentum, and the gravitational constant G determines the invariance of the relationship between energy-momentum and space-time. Space-time and energy-momentum are the basic elements of the universe, and that is all there is. The uniqueness and invariance of natural constants are the foundation of everything, and they must be included in the Theory of Everything, which cannot be reduced. This paper briefly discusses the basic features that the Theory of Everything should have, and the necessary relationship between it and the natural constants, and points out what kind of equations in physics are the ultimate unified equations. The unified equation produces two types of elementary particles with structural supersymmetry, Light Strings (bosons) and Light Rings (fermions). Light Strings and Light Rings can lose or gain matter properties, electric charge, magnetic charge, mass and g_μν , through conversion to each other, and give rise to the laws of supersymmetry between Special Relativity and General Relativity, constrained by energy-momentum conservatism.

Modern fundamental science tends to avoid the principle of physical causality and realism, replacing it with heuristically postulated and separated mathematical constructions that impose their own rules before being adjusted to measurement results. While it is officially accepted as the single possible kind of rigorous knowledge, we argue that another, explicitly extended kind of science can provide the causally complete picture of reality avoiding the glaring gaps, growing problems and persisting stagnation of the artificially reduced knowledge paradigm. The logic of science development and especially its current state call for the urgently needed transition to the extended, causally complete kind of knowledge and related sustainable progress at superior creativity levels of self-aware, reason-based society.
The hypothesis that we may be living in a digital simulation is utilized as a ‘thought experiment’ to help clarify important questions in theology and philosophy, including the nature of God, the significance and importance of an afterlife, and the ultimate nature of reality. It is argued that a consideration of the simulation hypothesis renders problematic traditional conceptions of a personal, creator, omnipotent deity, makes the theological significance of a purported afterlife far less significant, and paradoxically undermines the very materialistic view of reality that underlies the simulation hypothesis in the first place. It is concluded that the simulation hypothesis renders ‘science’ virtually irrelevant to ultimate questions in philosophy and theology and elevates ethics and axiology to fundamental status for our understanding of reality and any defensible conception of the divine.
Various theories of truth have been developed in philosophy, such as the correspondence theory, the coherence theory, the pragmatic theory of truth and the deflationary theory of truth, which give different answers to the question of what truth is. All these theories have their strengths and weaknesses, but they cannot counter post-factualism. With perspectival realism I will present a theory that combines elements of perspectivism and realism and promises to be an effective antidote to post-factualism.
In this paper I shall consider a scalar-scalar field theory with scalar field phi on a four-dimensional manifold M, and a Lorentzian Cofinsler function f on T*M. A particularly simple Lagrangian is chosen to govern this theory, and when f is chosen to generate FLRW metrics on M the Lagrangian becomes a function of phi and its first two time derivatives. The associated Hamiltonian is third-order, and admits infinitely many vacuum solutions. These vacuum solutions can be pieced together to generate a multiverse. This is done for those FLRW spaces with k>0. So when time, t, is less than zero we have a universe in which the t=constant spaces are 3-spheres with constant curvature k. As time passes through zero the underlying 4-space splits into an infinity of spaces (branches) with metric tensors that describe piecewise de Sitter spaces until some cutoff time, which will, in general, be different for different branches. After passing through the cutoff time all branches will return to their original 4-space in which the t=constant spaces are of constant curvature k, but will remain separate from all of the other branch universes. The metric tensor for this multiverse is everywhere continuous, but experiences discontinuous derivatives as the universe branches change between different de Sitter spaces. Some questions I address using this formalism are: what is the nature of matter when t<0; what happens to matter as time passes through t=0; and what was the universe doing before the multiple universes came into existence at t=0? The answers to these questions will help to explain the paper's title. I shall also briefly discuss a possible means of quantizing space, how inflation influences the basic cells that constitute space, and how gravitons might act.
