Dear Vladimir,

Asking question is in logic only.

When an experiment is repeated by any one and it gives the same result, then it becomes science. I mean here our thinking should be based on science and practical experiments.

Just thinking in logic with out practical experimental support can not lead us any where, what do you say?

Dear Satyavarapu Naga Parameswara Gupta!

Thank you for your good question!

The greatest experiment and dialectical logic - our life. Only the experiment of life itself and thinking about it, knowledge that gives science and its experiments - all together directs the right path to truth.

Besr regards,

Vladimir

Dear Vladimir,

This is a very impressive philosophical essay with several deep thoughts that touch many aspects of my own essay, although the latter was written from a physical point of view. It seems to me that metaphysics is not so much different from physics as I thought before. I am still translating your ideas into my own (physical) language and this will take some more time.

For now, my congratulations to your important essay.

Best regards,

Walter

Your essay was a bit on the philosophical side for my tastes, however, I enjoyed it, especially the notion of ontological memory.

I was wondering: does ontological memory lives in subtime?

You can find the latest version of it here:

(sorry if the fqxi web site splits this url up, I haven't figured out a way to not make it do that).

Ontological memory may be only indirectly accessible to us. Subtime appears to give it the kind of properties consistent with your description. My description: brief flashes of reality with long periods of darkness in between.

If I am only even a tiny bit right, I'm expect it will open up many philosophical questions.

I hope this leads to some even partial relief from the crisis of representation and interpretation in the fundamental sciences.

Let me know what you think.

Kind regards, Paul

    "Information as a phenomenon of Ontological Memory in nature is multivalent in its manifestations at different levels of reality."

    That uses all English words, but what on earth does that mean? Seems like a string of buzz words which happen to be in grammatical order. Much of the essay is like that. It's English, but Huh?? When I spend time to read these essays, I hope to learn something, but with sentences like the above, my eyes just glzze over, but this is one of the most highly community rated essays. I don't mean to be negative. Maybe other people are more technical than me, but I think I better represent the general layperson for whom this essay would have little interest or relevancy.

      Dear Walter,

      Thank you very much for your appreciation of my ideas!

      Good luck in the competition and all the best,

      Vladimir

      Dear Paul,

      Thank you for your comment and your question. Give please, an explanation of nature of the concept «subtime». I do not really understand the essential depth: «brief flashes of reality with long periods of darkness in between.»

      Dear Franklin,

      Thank you very much for your comment and question!

      In my essay I gave a link to my essay last year. I give it the essential justification of the fundamental structure of the world in the form of "Absolute generating structures." Matter is that from which all is born (Plato), "Ontological (structural) memory" is what generates and stores all. It is the very "structure" at every level of reality. What is the structure? The semantics of the concept gives us Eidos (the idea of) reality. In Russian semantics of the term "in-three-set" reveals the idea (eidos) of reality, its inner form. Therefore, the nature of the phenomenon (!) "Information" - the ontological (structural) memory of nature as a holistic process of generating, becomming and maintaining. The memory of the Universe sets its ontological algorithmic stores all the "codes" of the Universe, manifested in the form of "fundamental constants" and "coordinate system". To sum it up in our minds the deep structure of the archetypes of the world. In ancient times - a "three pillars", "three elephants", "three turtles" ... In the form of archetypal structure of the "sky" ("celestial law") appears "on the ground", i.e. in our minds, and eventually in science as the "laws of nature."

      I apologize for the grammar in the English translation!

      Best of Luck for the Magnificent Eight !

      I am throught the 180 essays, all rated. For me 2/3 of them were poor and other 1/6 curious. The rest (1/6) have I rated over 4/10.

      You are among the authors of the top essays from my sight - alphabetically :

      Corda, D'Ariano, Maguire, Rogozhin, Singleton, Sreenath, Vaid, Vishwakarma,

      and I hope one of you will be the winner. Vladimir, thanks for your rating

        Hi David,

        Thank you for your kind words and appreciation!

        Best wishes!

        Vladimir

        I rated the essay to be 10 not because of the quality of the essay but of my respect to the contribution of Russian scientists as a whole, especially to Gorigory Perelman!

          Dear Dr. Jin He,

          Thank you very much for your high advance rating! I will try to solve the problem of the foundations of mathematics. Some researchers believe that this is a perennial problem. With that, I do not agree. In knowledge, including mathematics, should be solid, reliable basis. On this basis ("missing structure" by Umberto Eco) well said Edmund Husserl in his book "Origine of Geometry". I think that the problem of justifying knowledge, including mathematics, more important to human culture than all the "millennium problems".

          Best regards

          Dear Vladimir Rogozhin: I had to read your essay several times to understand it correctly. Being a well-written essay, the density of ideas stated; joined a very erudite historical hindsight, make this essay an example magnificent mathematical thinking not, but it draws conclusions and axioms, of great importance. I do not like the word philosophy, I prefer: well structured thinking, logic and axiomatic.

          One of the important conclusions that you discussed is the concept of unitarity, in the sense that all physical phenomena, including space, time, and energy or mass, are actually manifestations of a single, fundamental entity, which takes into itself all physical characteristics, apparently manifested separately.

          Indeed, as you noted repeatedly in his essay, a theory of unification, by pure logic requires: 1) A holistic principle of unitarity. 2) fundamental functional units not "divisible" most fundamental units. That is to say: There must be a minimum as Delta incremental, that is nothing, that there is a minimum length measurement of space-time-mass.

          You remember in her essay the great thinkers of history, from ancient Greece, through Galileo, Kant, Boubarky. In this historical analysis mentions the importance of, for example, basic geometric forms: sphere, triangle, etc.. And here, here is where you absolutely right, as for example, the principle of holistic unitarity is manifest in the spins possible. That is: 1) The arithmetic average of the sum of the cosines of all nonzero spins, this arithmetic mean is very roughly squared (renormalization effects), the ratio of the mass of the Higgs boson mass and the value of the vacuum Higgs, that is:

          SUM_spins_cos( cos(s))= Delta(s)

          cos(s)= s/sqr[ s(s+1)]

          Delta(s)= 2.8755503

          ( Delta(s)/4 )^2 = 0.5167993455

          Vacuum Higgs value = 246.221202 Gev=V(H)

          V(H) x ( Delta(s)/4 )^2 = 127.246 Gev ~ mh

          Another example of principle of holistic unitarity

          The tetrahedron: the angle formed by one side with a face.

          This angle has the following property with respect to the spins of the graviton, the spin of the leptons, and the fractional electric charges.

          cos(th1)= cos(54.73561031 degree) = cos( s= 1/2)

          sin(th1) = cos( s= 2)

          ( cos(th1) )^2 = 1/3

          ( sin(th1) )^2 = 4/3 maximum value electric charge SU(5) unification

          I think, humbly, that these two mathematical-physical examples, would be a small "translation" of the excellent and well-reasoned thoughts embodied in his magnificent essay. I'm sure it will be one of the winners of this contest. Greetings. Angel Garces Doz

            Dear Angel,

            Many thanks for the very valuable, detailed and insightful comment! Totally agree with you: it was the task of total ontological unification of matter at all levels of being, building the basic structure of existence and then "setting" nature of the information, understanding of its essence. I had no problem "catch" the calculated parameters. Yes, it is possible and necessary for the next stage of understanding the base structure of the world, "grasp" truly «fundamental constants» and then the specific parametric calculations.

            Once again many thanks for the comment!

            Good luck and all the best!

            Best regards,

            Vladimir

            Dear Vladimir,

            Great reading, i agree with you on the whole. Many nice ideas that actually could shape future view on physics and philosophy.聽

            Best wishes

              Dear Koorosh,

              Thank you very much for your comment and appreciation. Yes, the information revolution makes all, physicists and lyricists, to see the world in new ways.

              Best wishes,
