Essay Abstract

Any information system carries in itself it's unidirectioned and irreversible "time" and a metric "space", bounded with this "time" by the Poincare divisible group transformations.

Gunn,

I like your essay.

Can I paraphase one of your points (without rigor) as:

1. A clock (tic) is always associated with information.

2. The information always contains a counter in some form

like a digital clock display.

3. As events occur the event counter always goes up.

4. The increasing counts are the direction of time and the

larger count numbers represent an increase in entropy.

What do you think? Thanks, Don L.

to Don L,

Good Day.

Thanks very much.

1. Yes.

2. I do not know.

3. Idem

4. Idem

Your paper was short and to the point. I don't know what your mathematical background is but have you used Shannon's information theory for your idea? Information theory is connected with entropy and has entanglement applications.

to Brian Beverly:

No, I did not use Shannon's information theory.

Your 'informational Time' is what I call 'Ideology of Material or Nature'. It is coming from the analogy made between Light and Time by R. Descartes, C. Huygens, I. Newton.

For example light of the Moon is for Descartes the distance between Earth and Moon. From this 'information' he is deducing instant-Time or absolute-Time. Pandora's box is open.

'Entropy' is just an approximation; the homologic approximation of Symmetry approximation. 'Entropy' is static as symmetry does even if it gives the illusion of dynamics.

Could you tell me Gunn, between a French and a Russian, do you think like me that 'informational Time' that is founding 'Quanta Physics' and Einstein's theories is just bullshit? Yes or No?

Or you still think it is possible to build something on this Sacred Sand? Yes or No?

What is "Sacred Sand"?

"Could you tell me Gunn, between a French and a Russian, do you think like me that 'informational Time' that is founding 'Quanta Physics'"

-- Yes. It is already made: please, see G. Quznetsov, Logical Foundation of Theoretical Physics, Nova Sci. Publ.(2006), p.p.79-107, and G. Quznetsov, Probabilistic Treatment of Gauge Theories, Nova Sci. Publ. (2007).

"and Einstein's theories is just bullshit?"

-- Mo. Please, see http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/9811507 , http://arxiv.org/abs/0708.2322 , http://arxiv.org/abs/physics/0105002,

'Sacred' because in my opinion Einstein plays the part of metaphysics in modern Physics, he is the 'saint' that one cannot disprove like Newton was before him.

And 'Sand' because the sand-box to measure Time gives a similar idea to the 'informational Time' that Future Time is made of Past Time. And the binary rythm of informational Time is included in the sand-box too.

Let me ask my question differently: Does this relevant idea of 'informational Time' that recalls Aristotle point of view drives you to conclude like me that grounding PREDICTIVE Physics on PAST Time is bullshit? That LHC hunting the Higgs Boson is just a gigantic virtual video game for rich children?

  • [deleted]

to F. Le Rouge:

"grounding PREDICTIVE Physics on PAST Time is bullshit?" ___ ?

But whole Physics sense consists in a looking for equations predicting future phenomenons on past initial conditions (?).

Whole Physics that is to say 'Quanta Physics' and Einstein's theories. Not whole Technology based mostly on tests. Einstein's equation is far much approximative to be useful in technology.

(Whole New Economy sense consists in a looking for equations predicting future phenomenons on past initial conditions -I add to make a comparison and maintain the idea of bullshit.)

- Notice about the LHC experience that mixes Technology and fundamental questions in Physics (binary informations) that the 'chiefs' are still explaining on TV, before the real starting of the machine, that 'no result would be a result'. In the 'wave' and 'matter' particle: the 'wave' is the information you are talking about. In other words: the information became the matter through the computation.

- Notice that the algebric standardization is FROM THE EARLY BEGINNING of this predictive Science stronger than the facts. For Descartes, Mersenne, Fermat, Huygens and Newton, above their differences, Algebra is more real than reality, the 'wave' than the water for example (Attempts to use the predictive tool in Economy are here from the beginning too.)

Dear Gunn,

So compact and interesting construction of informational time from a relational structure! I like it!

Dear Gunn,

Knowledge of Reality lies in complete silence and your essay is the briefest i have seen. i enjoyed going through it without any hurry and that is a good indication of the maturity you have displayed using the least words to describe. It is truly an enriching experience for me and i do hope i have learnt somthing nice for my future works, if any i may pen down!

i like the analogy of time with Information. After all the IT Technology is all this where computer is storing information and we retrieve as per our desire. Also, we do mnipulation through more calculations.

i have a question about the nature of time in respect tp psychology or if i may add ' meditation' - a state of wakefulness that is associated with calmness of mind/body in deep sleep. in my experience i have felt as if time has moments of stoppage during such a stage.It may well go backward or forward too. Birth and death are like moments of coming alive and leave the life. Even the lived life is just a continuity of momentary train.

A post by Le Rouge on your essay is very much close to my opinion too about the utility of the so-called LHC. For good Physics, i like to promote more vigorously the Wilkinson Probes deeper and deeper in space. This may well help unrival the early universe better. there are lots of things for Physics lying 'hidden' there at present. in my essay i have attempted to project this aspect and will wlcome your opinion as also of other authors.

I actually agree with you essay, a clock is an irreversible device that records information. Any such device requires the input of free energy, it performs work and generates entropy. There is though an underlying issue. Quantum information which is shared by entangled q-bits is reversible. The loss of entanglement which separates the quantum states appears involved with the "generation" of classical information. This can happen for an EPR pair separated by an event horizon, where teleporation of information becomes impossible. From this perspective there is then a different meaning to time on this quantal fine grained basis, in opposition to a macroscopic definition of time which is something registered by a device.

cheers, L.C.

Dear L.C.

"Because we receive our time with our informational system then all other our times' notions (thermodynamical time, cosmological time, psychological time etc.) should be defined by that Informational Time." And Quzntum Time, too.

With New 2009,

Gunn

And Quzntum Time should be defined by that Informational Time, too.
