Alternative Models of Reality

An alternative model of reality--

1. Roger Penrose in The Road to Reality emphasizes the importance of and wonders about the meaning of complex numbers in the basic equations of physics. The first section in the attached addresses his question.

2. Erwin Shrodinger raised questions about the identity of a particle, which is not covered by his equation. The second section presents such an equation.

3. Bohm and Hiley (The Undivided Universe) describe "active information" and "the holomovement." Active information is here described in terms of game theory, based on a game much studied in the laboratory. The holomovement is modeled by a stream that emerges from a non-wellfounded set.

4. Measurement of consciousness is an issue raised elsewhere on FQXI. Observation of the beginning and ending of self is suggested by a Petri net model of a stream-- as above, modeled by a non-wellfounded set. Which suggests a hypothesis that could be tested in a good neuro-imaging lab, one experienced with laboratory animals.

The model is here.

Hi Kurt,

do you mean through space or space-time? Do you mean the distribution of EM radiation will be affected altering the size and shape of the images produced from the information, or the size and shape of material objects will change? Why do you say charge and forces and magnetic moments will change?

Einstein's theory of Gravity has no place for Gravitational Waves

One year after the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) instrument's discovered Gravitational Waves, the LIGO scientists still have not provided the answer for this question: "What are the Gravitational waves MADE OF?" or "When someone talks of waves, the instant response should always be, "Waves of what?", as Charles Scurlock put it.

So, as of today, the basic nature of LIGO Gravitational Waves is still a mystery.

Actually, this widely and cheerfully accepted discovery creates much more mysteries and myths that need to be addressed. This GW, for example, is acting - or moving, precisely - against the Laws of Physics.

Throwing a big rock into water, we create waves that would certainly move toward the shore. But if we dig a hole at the bottom of the lake that immediately sucks water in - something similar to the black hole - the waves created, if any, would move in the opposite direction, toward the hole, not the shore.

The illustration provided by LIGO artist shows it well.

But the LIGO's two black holes - while merging and combining their sucking power - suddenly generate waves that move away from the holes and toward the shore, or in this case the LIGO instrument that is 1.3 billion light years away from where they were born.

Another mystery is the unbelievable capacity of the LIGO instrument.

Matter does seem to show up everywhere, usually as mass. The properties of objects are very important and mass is a particular property as is amplitude. Although amplitude has no meaning in GR classical physics, amplitude is a very important quantum property.

Action is a simple belief that objects change and the GR of classical physics is built around the action principle. Although action is normally the derivative of matter or energy over time or space, action as an axiom along with matter are correspondingly from where time and space emerge. This is of course upside logic according to belief in spacetime axioms, but the equations pf matter and action work perfectly well predicting the future without space and time.

The discrete aether choice of matter and action as axioms simply provides a starting place for anchoring consciousness that is different than the anchors of space and time. Axioms are something in which we must simply believe in order to make sense out of sensations of the world. Instead of believing in space and time, it makes more sense to believe first of all in matter and action and let space and time emerge from matter and action.

Although discrete aether seems natural to me and unifies gravity and charge, no one else seems to really want to reconcile gravity and charge no matter how much sense it makes. That is why I am at the fringe in discourse with the fringe who all seem to have their own notions and are not really that interested in anyone else's notions. But I like the banter and it helps me sharpen my axioms and better structure discrete aether.

We live in a multiverse represented by all combinations of c, h, G. Fine tuning was inevitable. It is a good bet that our universe is overlapped with other universes, some of which may be superluminal, others with even stranger properties.

Hi Jason,

Hope you are well,Happy to see you again on FQXi? it is cool that you write also.You are creative.I have thought also about these multiverses.The works of Mr Tegmark about the mathematical universe and multiverses are interesting.I asked me what where a multiverse if we link with the uniquenss.A center so is necessary.If our universe is part of a multiverse.And if I link with my theory of spherisation, let's assume so a multispheres.The big question is about thisuniqueness,in logic we return at this number 1 and this uniquenss, because the multispheres is part of a sphere with sphères.Now I find the idea relevant for the play with constants,laws and intrinsic équations of these sphères different.That said we return always with this uniquenss, entropical.The serie is so between 1 and 1.In this line of reasoning indeed we can play with different properties.Personaly I consider one universal sphere in my model, but the mathematical play of multispheres of Mr Tegmark could be relevant for the imagination and creativity even subjectivity.

ps Jason The superluminal is possible with particles not baryonic in logic ,this dark matter.But not with our fermions bosons at my humble opinion.Regards

Hi Steve,

Great to hear from you. You have been one of the long standing pillars of this physics community.

I imagine our spacetime to be like a spherical planet/star inside of it's own cosmos, but that every space-time is growing larger at its own speed of light until they all begin to overlap. Our space time is likely to have overlapped with other space-times that won't necessarily be detectable. They are like ghostly universes all around us.

Dear Steve Agnew,

"Although discrete aether seems natural to me and unifies gravity and charge, no one else seems to really want to reconcile gravity and charge no matter how much sense it makes."

I am familiar with the case put forward that "Instead of believing in space and time, it makes more sense to believe first of all in matter and action and let space and time emerge from matter and action." I have not read how it reconciles gravity and charge. I assume gravity is taken as a given once space and time, I believe you mean space-time, emerge. Could you please explain where charge makes its appearance. I am assuming you mean electric charge. The word charge is used in physics more loosely than that.

Hello Jason the creative :)

Thanks,I was not on fqxi because my net is hacked and that I have a lot of probelms in belgium dueto bad persons but I have faith I am christian.That helps.I love this Platform.They permit us to write our thoughts and models,it is innovant, transparent and we learn so much here.

Best Regards

Thank-you for your interest. It often seems like people argue endlessly about this and that but the basic idea of unification gets lost in the noise of quantum uncertainty.

Charge bonds matter by means of the exchange of photons, which is action or change. Gravity bonds matter by the exchange of the same photon along with its emitted photon at the CMB creation and everywhere in between. This biphoton exchange is the monopole and quadrupole of gravity while single photon exchange is the dipole of charge.

Thus discrete aether results in the universe of matter and action from which space and time or spacetime emerge. Change or quantum action by math is a differential and it is from that differential that space and time emerge. The quantum Hamilton Jacobi equation, which is the basis for both gravity and charge, has dimensionless ratios of space and time.

Time scales from the orbit period of the electron in hydrogen and other atoms while space scales from the charge radius of the electron. The mathy version is worked out here, but it is very mathy...Universal_Quantum_Action_with_Discrete_Aether_and_Time_Delay

The civilian version is here...quantum-aether

Hello to both of you,

Thanks for sharing Mr Agnew,It is a beautiful work.I liked the 1d spherical wave and the sphere :) beautiful play of maths.That said I have difficulties to analyse this aether in correlation with our standard model and special relativity.This gravitation seems linked with dark matter and is not baryonic.The aether in this logic is gravitational.The motions andphasis in logic could be extrapolated with this gravitation considering particles of gravit ,this dark matter and BH and quantum BHs could be superimposed at our standard model.This zero absolute seems really interesting.The équations of motions could be imrpoved if wr insert mlosV=cst.and ml².The 3 motions of sphères,linear, orbital and spinal more the volumes and the nature can answer.The problem is this bridge of thermodynamics and special relativity.It is there that the spherical volumes become relevant at my humble opinion.The aether seems really gravitational considering these smallest spherons produces by the central BH.The biggest.All could be harmonised with the spherisation on an increasing entropical line time.The theorem of Noether and the geometrical algebras if they are well utilised about domains and axioms could be relevant.Time can be dépendent or independent and the classments of 3 motions could be relevant in 3D.I am asking me how are really these 3 motions of sphères.Have they a maximum? My equation is it correct? I don't know, perhaps even that simply the sense or rotation answers also for this thermodynamocal equilibrium between baryonic matter and dark matter ,this gravitation.I don't know, I am asking me what is this matter.I don't know if the roadis this zero absolute and its fractalisation near this zero.It is complex.In al case the motions are essential.Noether, Lagrange, Euler,Legendre....shall agree perhaps :)

Regards

at the same moment John, hello also.But like I write less speedly ,so this explains that:) Regards

ps john, they turn so they are .....

I liked you general work.But it seemsto have a problem considering the dark matter.It is not Baryonic....Aether seems really gravitational and not luminiferous.The biphotons quadrupoles is an electromagnetic force correlated with our thermo, standard model and special relativity.Gravitation does not seem to be an emergent electromagnetic force.But of course it is just my opinion.If a chief orchestra exists, it seems to be this gravitation.Why they turn these sphères, it is not due to our actual electrom forces.The aether seems relally correlated with the central sphere BH of our universal sphere producing these particles of gravitational aether.The photons are not really the primordial quantum of E.These photons seems governend by a gravitational equilibrium.That is why we see that this gravitation encircles this standard model at the two scales,quant and cosm.We cannot unify the quantum gravitation with our general relativity in this line of reasoning where our standard baryonic model is taken into account.We need a kind of balance, equilibrium for this thermodynamical forces.Gravitation cannot be photonic in this reasoning.It isjust my opinion Mr Agnew,I liked your general work,I just explain my point of vue.Aether is a concept linking the words of Einstein ,God does not play at dices, the stability of this gravitation shows us that this aether is gravitational.Light and heat are not the only one road it seems to me.

Best Regards

Georgina - ask all the questions you want it is ok but some of the answers are a little hard to talk about on a computer. I like to talk about time and space not space time. I am against space time for a lot of reasons. It is probably true if you do any thing to change time there will be changes to space and if you do any thing to change space there will be changes to time. For years I have talked about this - if gravity waves travel at the speed of light photons and neutrinos moving in certain directions will see some gravity waves with infinite energy - a lot of not normal things would happen like light and neutrinos would not be able to travel on straight paths and they would change energy - light and neutrinos have a not normal Doppler effect with gravity waves - gravity waves move at an almost infinite speed - people will not ever see gravity waves. Michaelson and Morley tried to find the ether using an interferometer. LIGO uses an interferometer. People said gravity waves change the speed of light and LIGO will not work because of this - I am not claiming credit for this. I guess I am claiming credit for a lot of things like Doppler effect associated with gravity waves will influence time, space, distance, shape of time and shape of space that photons will see - photons going on different paths through an interferometer will see different amounts of Doppler effect. It might be more simple to think of a universe with just 2 photons moving on a paths that an interferometer uses. A gravity wave goes around them. Because the photons are moving in different directions they will see different amounts of Doppler effect. If gravity waves move at the speed of light the photons will see a normal Doppler effect and they will see normal changes with things like time, space, distance and direction - but this would stop an interferometer from working - if there was an interference pattern it would be different from what LIGO is looking for. A lot of people have worked on LIGO for a long time. There is not any person who knows what they have done including them - 1 person can not know what thousands of people have done. Gravity waves going around LIGO will change all things around LIGO like the ground and equipment around LIGO. I could talk for days about how time and space act like the spring constants of time and space and how time and space changes shape. I could talk for days about how space changes and how this influence space around that space. People who have worked for LIGO tried to make things simple. I think they are dishonest to say they saw gravity waves. I think most physics people are against the people who worked on LIGO. Look on the internet. Gravity waves change the vacuum like time and space. When the vacuum, time and space change a lot of things will change like mass, energy, forces, electric charge and energy of photons.

John R. Cox,

"So let us look at what 'unification' actually means."

Dear Steve Agnew,

I am interested in following through with learning about your work. I concluded some time ago that your work is an advance for theoretical physics. My own work differs entirely. I am not seeking to explain my work in this thread. However, I am responding to John R. Cox's message. I will return my attention immediately back to your ideas.

John,

I have looked at it and written about it including here. Unification means identifying the single cause for all effects. The path to follow is to define all properties of physics except for space and time, or since space and time have never been directly represented in physics equations, to define all physics properties in terms of the physics substitutes for space and time. Those two substitutes are object length and object activity. All other properties must be defined only in terms of these two naturally indefinable properties, object length and object activity. Object length has units of meters, and, object activity has units of seconds. Since properties are represented in physics equations by their units, the units of all other properties must be defined in combinations of meters and seconds only. The immediate benefit is that mass becomes a defined property for the first time. The definition of mass identifies the single cause for all effects as the variation of the speed of light. The benefits go on and on including the identity of electric charge.

"Because the question remains; 'what IS charge?!' and how can it be that it exhibits only one direction of action ... "

Electric charge is a universally constant measure of an increment of time. It is the time it takes for light, measured locally, to travel the radius (4.8x10-11 meters) of a simplified, much like the Bohr atom, hydrogen atom. Its units, when defined in terms of meters and seconds only, are seconds. The polarity is a property of mass, i.e., a property of the variation of the speed of light.

Steve, Ok that is all. I am not looking for anyone's response to it. I remain interested in your work if your interest has not been turned off. I need to finish reading the link you provided.

"How many times have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth?" - Arthur Conan Doyle

In the world of Sherlock Holmes, a successful search for information results in more information becoming available, information which is then logically applied to the possibilities in scope. In light of the newly available information, some things previously seen to be possible are now seen to be impossible .

In terms of a mathematical language called situation theory, applied to the possibility indexed by i:

[math]theSituation \models [/math]

means

[math]theSituation \models [/math]

Adding a little more math by associating the possibility i with a number, the second equation becomes:

[math]theSituation \models [/math]

More here.

[math]theSituation\models information:available[/math]

Wavefn collapse via informationalism. These 3 eqn. model the collapse. Here's how:

(The full references are here.)

First, Shrodinger saw that observations are discrete. Likewise the informationalism of Jon Barwise assumes that "information comes in pieces." Therefore the problem of the continuum (cf. John Baez, Struggles with the continuum.) is not in play. Here I assume that a discrete observation produces a piece of information.

For example, when in the two slit experiment an electron hits the plate, a piece of information is produced.

[math]theSituation \models information:available[/math]

Next I apply is the basic tenet of Barwise's informationalism:

"The Inverse Relationship Principle: Whenever there is an increase in available information there is a corresponding decrease in possibilities, and vice versa."

Given all the possible locations of the electron on the plate, the electron is observed in only one location. And this makes a piece of information available.

The inverse relationship principle then tells me that because of this increase in information, "there is a corresponding decrease in possibilities."

In other words, as soon as the information becomes available that the electron hit the plate at location, say, "j", no other possible location, say, "i not equal to j" is now possible.

[math]theSituation \models possibility_i:impossible[/math]

Using natural language, "the wave function has collapsed." Or more formally--

[math]theSituation \models \Psi_i=0[/math]
