Cracks of fundamental quantum physics
2011
The fundaments of quantum physics are still not well established. This paper tries to find the cracks in these fundaments and suggests repair procedures. This leads to unconventional solutions and a new model of physics. As part of this enterprise an underpinning of the existence of strands is provided. Another innovation is the derivation of a curvature field from the superposition of all other fields. The most revolutionary introduction is the representation of dynamics by a sequence of separable Hilbert spaces. Together, this embodies a repair of fundaments that does not affect the building.
Par zinātni kā instrumentalitāti: �kas mainījies pēc kvantu mehānikas ienākšanas epistemoloģijā

Mathematics is Physics
2010
In series of articles we continue to advance idea that mathematics and physics is the same. We bring forward two basic assumptions as principles. First is the primacy of life as opposed to dominating reductionism, and second – immaturity of epistemology. Second principle says that we have reached stage of epistemology where we have stepped outside simple perceptibility only on level of individuality (since Aristotle) but not on level of collective mind. The last stage have reached only most of religious teachings but not physical science that is still under oppressive influence of reductionism. This causes that what we call research in physical science turns out to be simply instrumental im…
Tēze: Dalījums fizikā, reliģijā un mistikā ir ... mistika/līdz aplamībai novecojusi lieta
No trim minētajām jomām fizika ir visvairāk sasniegusi realitātes aizsniegšanai, galvenokārt pateicoties kvantu mehānikas sasniegumiem, bet tās nodalīšanās no divām citām jomām kavē pašas tās attīstību. Vēl vairāk, fizika pati iekrīt savā misticismā un varbūt arī pašdarinātā reliģijā - ja tas vēl nav noticis, tad tas notiks - ja tā neizdarīs radikālus apvērsumus savās nostādnēs, kas to vairs nešķirs no augšminētajām jomām.
TGD Inspired Model for Freezing in Nano Scales
Freezing is a phase transition, which challenges the existing view of condensed matter in nanoscales. In the TGD framework, quantum coherence is possible in all scales and gravitational quantum coherence should characterize hydrodynamics in astrophysical and even shorter scales. The hydrodynamics at the surface of the planet such as Earth the mass of the planet and even that of the Sun should characterize gravitational Planck constant $h_{gr}$ assignable to gravitational flux tubes mediating gravitational interactions. In this framework, quantum criticality involving $h_{eff}=nh_0>h$ phases of ordinary matter located at the magnetic body (MB) and possibly controlling ordinary matter, could …
Physics and Religion in the Crossroads of Paradigms
The change of paradigms in physics and Christianity during historical periods up to the nowadays postmodernism situation is shortly discussed. The search for new physics paradigms in the direction of unification of general relativity theory with quantum theory is analyzed as well as the present status of this search in the context of postmodernism tendencies in Christianity.
Explanation of Qualia and Self-Awareness Using Elastic Membrane Concept
2017
In this work we show that our self-awareness and perception may be successfully explained using two dimensional holistic structures with closed topology embedded into our brains - elastic membranes. These membranes are able to preserve their structure during conscious processes. Their elastic oscillations may be associated with our perceptions, where the frequency of the oscillations is responsible for the perception of different colors, sounds and other stimuli, while the amplitude of the oscillations is responsible for the feeling of a distance. According to the model the squeezed regions of a membrane correspond to the brain zones involved into awareness and attention. The model may be u…
Homology of ”world of classical worlds” in relation to Floer homology and quantum homology
2022
One of the mathematical challenges of TGD is the construction of the homology of "world of classical worlds" (WCW). The generalization of Floer homology looks rather obvious in the zero ontology (ZEO) based view about quantum TGD. ZEO, the notion of preferred extremal (PE), and the intuitive connection between the failure of strict non-determinism and criticality are essential elements. The homology group is defined in terms of the free group formed by preferred extremals $PE(X^3,Y^3)$ for which $X^3$ is a stable maximum of K\"ahler function $K$ associated with the passive boundary of CD and $Y^3$ associated with the passive boundary is a more general critical point. The identification of P…
Finite fields and TGD
TGD involves geometric and number theoretic physics as complementary views of physics. Almost all basic number fields: rationals and their algebraic extensions, p-adic number fields and their extensions, reals, complex number fields, quaternions, and octonions play a fundamental role in the number theoretical vision of TGD. Even a hierarchy of infinite primes and corresponding number fields appears. At the first level of the hierarchy of infinite primes, the integer coefficients of a polynomial $Q$ defining infinite prime have no common prime factors. $P=Q$ hypothesis states that the polynomial $P$ defining space-time surface is identical with a polynomial $Q$ defining infinite prime at the…
Quantum Gravitation and Topological Quantum Computation
In this article the connection of quantum gravitation, as it is understood in the TGD framework, with topological quantum computation (TQC) is considered. I sketched the first TGD based vision about DNA as a TQCer for about 13 years ago. In particular, a model of the system consisting of DNA and nuclear/cell membrane system acting as a TQCer was discussed. TGD has evolved a lot after this and there are several motivations for seeing what comes out from combining the recent view about quantum TGD and TGD inspired quantum biology with this model. \begin{enumerate} \item There is a rather detailed view about the role of dark matter as phases of ordinary matter with the effective Planck constan…
