Dear Christine (if I may),

thanks for a well-written and very interesting essay. The ideas on metadynamics you expounded are quite inspiring.

I would be most interest if you could find some similarities with your ideas in the general framework I propose in my essay.

Meanwhile, congrats and good luck with the contest.

best,

Flavio

    Hi Christine,

    you developed some deep ideas about the 3 "Uns" and I think your ideas are more than analogies.

    You wrote

    "Hence the limits of provability in formal axiomatic systems would correspond in metadynamics to an associated layer of physical reality which is not mathematically expressible".

    I come to the same inference in my essay. Although some would think this is the end of any proper description of reality, i would think it must not - to the contrary.

      Hello Dr Dantas,

      Very relevant general analysis and innovative extrapolation. I liked your metadynamics like a conceptual space of physical attributes that are self-referential, and symmetries related to these attributes lead to laws.

      I see so many convergences with the topological spaces, euclidian spaces,and lie Groups and derivatives more the 3D spheres if they are the foundamental mathematical and physical objects of course but I cannot affirm. The points of geometrodynamics or the strings can maybe be conjectured if you analyse deeper the goentrizations and topologies more the rankings of fields and matters. The maths and this metadynamics seem relevant for our physics if they are well harmonised with our pure determinism. Very relevant essay, one of my favorites, you are innovative and it is essential, I wish you all the best in this Contest.

      Best Regards

        Thanks! I will be reading your essay opportunely. Good luck with the contest too.

        Christine I enjoyed your essay and I enjoyed your thinking process. I have a "recent discovery" that you may want to use to adjust your hypothesis. This "discovery" is introduced in my essay--Clarification of Physics---. What it introduces is a new Successful Self Creation theory and a new "lowest level of creation". In reading your essay I was struck by how this lowest level is your ...associated layer of physical reality which is not mathematically expressible.--and the -- (yet to be uncovered) extension of logical systems". However, in my essay appendix, I show that this level is mathematically expressible. It is the lowest level that initially associates physical reality and mathematics. This association carries through its scale up to become the mathematical/universe that I discovered. This lowest level is also the lowest level that "associates" math, physics, the rest of science, philosophy - logic and reason, and religion.

        This discovery refutes many of your conclusions. However, the inclusion of this discovery in your excellent thinking about meta- correlations should lead to results that "mirrow ? this is a new term for me" the actual creation of the mathematical-physical universe. It can also be extended to the other disciplines -philosophy etc. I hope you read my essay and comment. If you have any questions, put them in your comments or e mail me. John Crowell

          Christine I recently revised (added to) my initial essay. So be sure to read and comment on the current essay. John

          Thank you for your comment. If your discovery refutes many of my conclusions, I will then learn where my failure resides, thank you for your corrections. Best,

          Christine

          hi christian. nice work. like your philosophical work.youve slotted something on the human brain.great art piece.you have my high ratei did something on anthropocentric bias here https://fqxi.org/community/forum/topic/3525 please read/rate.all the best in the contest.

            Thank you, and I wish you good luck in the contest. I hope to read a selection of essays opportunely, but I cannot make promises as to when I will be able to do that, as my life has become hectic in the past months. By the way, my name is Christine.

            Dear Christine,

            It was a pleasure to read your essay, it is innovative and with brilliant ideas. I like your idea of metadynamics, and I think it has an important foundational and philosophical potential. I particularly liked this:

            We can prove the impossibility of proving something!.

            Your

            Proposition. We cannot deduce all the physical laws from the initial conditions of the Universe.

            and your remark that

            this "physical incompleteness" is not just the reflection of a mathematical incompleteness for describing a physical law, but the realization of physical laws that cannot be described mathematically

            are thought provoking. I've seen several attempts to get out of the box of mathematics or the physical law itself, but they usually are very vague, while I think yours is by far more concrete and of better potential, by the combination of ergodic theory with no-go results like Gödel's. Although I hope we are not limited to know the physical laws, on the other hand I am a bit mysterian, so this wouldn't mind me that much :-)

            Thank you for the great reading, and success with the contest!

            Cheers,

            Cristi

              Dear Cristinel,

              Thank you very much for your positive review of my essay. I wish you good luck with the contest! I am still reading the essays, but I'm certain in advance that yours has a high value content.

              Best,

              Christine
