IPI Christmas lecture on 17th of Dec - Quantum Doug Matzke, Ph.D.

 Title: "Bit-Physics: How to bootstrap the universe using topological bits"

Abstract:

In my 2002 Ph.D. dissertation, I defined bit-physics as a mathematical model using topological bits (geometric algebra) to derive quantum computing (qubits and ebits). Later in my 2020 book Deep Reality, I expanded that approach to include the standard model, neural computing and beyond. Both of these efforts make testable predictions different than the models for quantum computing and standard model. This research gives keen insight into the hyperdimensional nature of the quantum-verse.

The key to understanding bit-physics are the twin concepts:
1) "bits are physical" (Landauer's principle) thus effecting the physical universe
2) "bits are protophysical" (Matzke's principle), which means that the topological mathematics supporting hyperdimensional bits is fundamental to the structure of the multiverse.

Author: Quantum Doug Matzke, Ph.D.

Contact: Doug@QuantumDoug.com  and www.QuantumDoug.com

Bio: Dr. Matzke is a prolific scientist, researcher, and presenter in his areas of expertise about limits of computation, hyperdimensional mathematics, neuro-computing, quantum computing, real intelligence, and metaphysics. During his 45-year career, he was chairman of two PhysComp '92/'94 workshops, contributed to fifteen disclosed patents with eight granted, has published more than fifty papers and presentations, and earned a PhD in Quantum Computing. Doug has adopted the moniker of "Quantum Doug" because he researches these deep-reality subjects as the bit-physics model beneath his source science view of the multiverse.

17th of Dec. at 16.00 London time. Online ZOOM lecture - link will be emailed to the IPI members.

How to test if we're living in a computer simulation

Physicists have long struggled to explain why the universe started out with conditions suitable for life to evolve. Why do the physical laws and constants take the very specific values that allow stars, planets and ultimately life to develop? The expansive force of the universe, dark energy, for example, is much weaker than theory suggests it should be – allowing matter to clump together rather than being ripped apart.

A common answer is that we live in an infinite multiverse of universes, so we shouldn’t be surprised that at least one universe has turned out as ours. But another is that our universe is a computer simulation, with someone fine-tuning the conditions.

The latter option is supported by a branch of science called information physics, which suggests that space-time and matter are not fundamental phenomena. Instead, the physical reality is fundamentally made up of bits of information, from which our experience of space-time emerges. By comparison, temperature “emerges” from the collective movement of atoms. No single atom fundamentally has temperature.

This leads to the extraordinary possibility that our entire universe might in fact be a computer simulation. The idea is not that new. In 1989, the legendary physicist, John Archibald Wheeler, suggested that the universe is fundamentally mathematical and it can be seen as emerging from information. He coined the famous aphorism “it from bit”. 

In 2003, philosopher Nick Bostrom from Oxford University in the UK formulated his simulation hypothesis. This argues that it is actually highly probable that we live in a simulation. That’s because an advanced civilisation should reach a point where their technology is so sophisticated that simulations would be indistinguishable from reality, and the participants would not be aware that they were in a simulation.

 


Physicist Seth Lloyd from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the US took the simulation hypothesis to the next level by suggesting that the entire universe could be a giant quantum computer.
And in 2016, business magnate Elon Musk concluded “We’re most likely in a simulation” (see video above).

A new particle won't solve dark matter

 Dark matter may be information itself 

  A new particle wont solve dark matter

There is no shortage of debate about the nature of dark matter, a mysterious substance that many believe makes up a large proportion of the total mass of the universe, in spite of never having observed it directly. Now some believe that Landauer’s principle, which dictates the physical nature of information, is raising a startling possibility: that dark matter might be information itself.

Sustenance4all

Sustenance4all researches information theory to design non harmful functionality of anthropogenic systems. Information decides functionality.

We designed two metaphysical equations by which we measure, map and predict probability patterns of entropy and negentropy.

 


The first equation demonstrates Anthropogenic Entropy (human-induced disorder), i.e. Wrong/False (¬)Perception (P) x (Ankh (life) minus Information) beyond R, Realimiteit) leads to or accelerates entropy. The system is dysfunctional, ungovernable, and uncontrollable.

Human Perception + Consciousness (P) is the concluding feedback loop that determines the order, the control and the necessary corrections (control).

Note: the equation for Anthropogenic Negentropy (man-made) order, sustainability: Continuity (Symbol of Infinity) = ((Life; all living systems: symbol Ankh + Information: symbol i) within the limitations/limits of reality or Realimiteit (R) or the boundaries of functionality x Perception (P) via Consciousness verified by Conscience. The living system functions optimally, is controllable and manageable.

Without information (communication) living systems can’t function because they can’t learn. In fact, it is information that gives universal energy and matter its functionality and ensures evolution - survival. This also applies to our DNA which is both the messenger and the message.

When human-made living systems (organisations, companies, industries, politics) are governed within the limits of functionality or limits of reality (Realimiteit), they can be governed by all relevant information and therefore maximally, but not completely, controlled in a non-linear universe. If the limits of reality are exceeded, such systems will inevitably fall into entropy (disorder) and become uncontrollable.

This is the Realimiteit Principle which, when adhered to, is the key to returning living systems to homeostasis and autopoiesis (self-maintenance and preservation), i.e. within the realm of reality or the limits of functionality, no longer harmful to human or non-human life, the environment or social cohesion. 

Physics confirms that the universe consists of energy, matter and information and that these are inseparable. Information cannot be separated or divorced from our physical world and reality. Information creates order and structure. Like energy, heat, pressure or the speed of light, information obeys the universal laws of physics. 

We already apply these findings in the oil and gas industry with amazing results in enhancement of operational excellence and safety. Therefore these equations have an unlimited application potential.

Definition of Information....

 Is Information can be defined as 

a quantum state change due to the modification of one degree of freedom about the considered quantum system?

 

Following,
 
"that entropy, is information: indeed,in the micro-canonical language entropy is determined by the number of microstates compatible with a given macrostate."
 
Carlo Rovelli; Relative information at the foundation of physics, Second prize in the 2013 FQXi context ’It From Bit or Bit From It?’arXiv:1311.0054v1 [hep-th] 31 Oct 2013]
 
and
 The von Neumann entropy of a quantum state is an information-theoretic measure of the amount of randomness or uncertainty that is inherent to that.
 
from The Theory of Quantum Information, Quantum entropy and source coding,
 
with
 
 Shannon in his celebrated 1948 work that started the development of information theory, the number of states in which something can be, is precisely the definition of “information” (more precisely, “lack of information”)

Can we define information as a quantum state change due to the modification of one degree of freedom about the considered quantum system?

NEW BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT

 Award Winning Author, Jude Currivan, Ph.D., Explores the Evolutionary Purpose of the Universe, Our Planet, and Ourselves 


 Exploring our emergence as self-aware members of a planetary home and entire Universe that is a unified and innately sentient entity, Jude Currivan, Ph.D., shows that mind and consciousness are not what we possess but what we and the whole world fundamentally are. She reveals our Universe as “a great thought of cosmic mind,” manifesting as a cosmic hologram of meaningful in-formation that vitally, exists to evolve.
 

Sharing leading-edge scientific breakthroughs, and showing how they support traditional visions of Earth as a living being—Gaia, the author details the 13.8 billion-year story of our Universe and Gaia, where everything in existence has inherent meaning and evolutionary purpose. Showing how the Universe was born, not in an implicitly chaotic big bang, but as the first moment of a fine-tuned and ongoing “big breath,” she shares the latest evidence for the innate sentience that has guided our universal journey from simplicity to ever-greater complexity, diversity, and self-awareness—from protons to planets, plants, and people. She explains how evolution is not driven by random occurrences and mutations but by profoundly resonant and harmonic interplays of forces and influences, each intelligently informed and guided. 

Currivan shows how, in Gaia, the Universe’s evolutionary impulse is embodied in collaborative relationships and dynamic co-evolutionary partnerships on a planetary scale and as a wholistic gaiasphere. She reveals how the conscious evolution of humanity is an integral part of Gaia’s own evolutionary progress and purpose. And, as she explains in vivid and moving detail, by perceiving and experiencing our planet as a sentient being and ourselves as Gaians, we open ourselves to a deeply ecological, evolutionary, and, above all, hopeful worldview.
