Born to do Math 62 – Feynman, Sum Above All

Born to do Math 62 – Feynman, Sum Above All
Scott Douglas Jacobsen & Rick Rosner
May 22, 2017

[Beginning of recorded material]

Rick Rosner: But that doesn’t mean that you have to see everything through the lens of multi-worlds theory. There are probably other theories that have a similar deal. String Theory may become a more powerful tool for describing the world, but, right now, it hasn’t delivered enough specific predictions to be very useful.

But at some point in the future, String Theory could be worked out so that it might be a framework that is helpful in certain instances. Feynman, there’s a Sum Over Histories principle that says particles take very possible path between point A and point B.

That is a helpful framework for doing certain quantum tasks. But it is not something—if you’re sufficiently trained in quantum mechanics, you may have this in the back of your mind, but you don’t need the Sum Over Histories principle to do quantum mechanics.

None of which gets to the question of why we exist rather than not, and the reason for the ways we exist. That is, 3 spatial dimensions, roughly with an asterisk and that asterisk being quantum effects at small scales, and the curvature of space at huge scales.
One temporal dimension too.

Born to do Math 61 – Many Worlds, JFK

Born to do Math 61 – Many Worlds, JFK
Scott Douglas Jacobsen & Rick Rosner
May 15, 2017

[Beginning of recorded material]

Rick Rosner: But you want to talk about the Many Worlds in that way, that is not just acceptable, that is pretty much undeniable but when I talk about Many Worlds like some thing across an abstract space like the set of all worlds in which you’re able to see JFK assassinated. Those things may have some mathematical legitimacy. In that, you might be able to itch some quantum wave signature that could have another world and another time in a quantum wave that describes a universe like ours, but JFK didn’t get assassinated. But whether that means that that world has a kind of existence, you could probably argue it either way.

And probably it doesn’t matter, except as something that is fun to think about and is a convenient framing device. And it is something that you can also do physics without. You can’t do quantum physics without quantum indeterminacy, without addressing big systems where there is not enough information to assign one definite state to some aspects of that system.

Born to do Math 60 – Many Worlds, Again
Scott Douglas Jacobsen & Rick Rosner
May 8, 2017

[Beginning of recorded material]

Rick Rosner: Perspective like the Many World perspectives helps understand things better. There will be optional ways to frame existence that may or may not be provable.  But are convenient for things. I feel that Many Worlds is a possibly unprovable proposition, but is convenient for talking about certain aspects of the world. There are some aspects of Many Worlds theory that are woven into the universe. Quantum Indeterminacy, Schrödinger’s Cat deals, except subatomic particles, those are real alternate versions of the world that can be presented via some very precise quantum math.

[Beginning of recorded material]

Rick Rosner: Perspectives like the Many Worlds perspective. I have a feeling that when we understand things better. There will be optional perspectives, optional ways to frame existence that may or may not be provable. I feel like Many Worlds is possibly an unprovable proposition, but is convenient for talking about certain aspects of the world. There are some aspects of Many Worlds theory that are definitely woven into the universe.

Quantum indeterminacy, Schrodinger’s Cat kind of deal but with subatomic particles, those are definitely real kind of alternate versions of the world that can be presented via some very precise quantum math. If you want to talk about Many Worlds that way, that’s not just acceptable. That’s pretty much undeniable, but if you want to talk about Many Worlds across some abstract space like the set of all worlds where Kennedy didn’t get assassinated and so on.

Those things may have some mathematical legitimacy because you could describe some quantum wave signature. If you had world enough and time, you could describe a universe like ours, except Kennedy didn’t get assassinated. But does that mean that that world has some kind of existence? You could probably argue it either way and it probably doesn’t matter except as something that is fun to think about and is a convenient framing device.

Born to do Math 58 – Hows, then Whys (Part 2)

Born to do Math 58 – Hows, then Whys (Part 2)
Scott Douglas Jacobsen & Rick Rosner
May 4, 2017
[Beginning of recorded material]

Rick Rosner: We have the principle that you can only be in one world at a time, or that at least macro objects that you interact with are unitary and not shapeshifting. They are consistent and not shapeshifting from being—your phone isn’t shapeshifting as if it changing places with phones across alternate worlds. Macro objects embedded in history don’t behave that way, embedded in our worldline.

There are processes going on that keep us confined to a world that is shifting and non-existent, except for the natural processes of physics, biology, and chemistry, and everything. The only allowed changes among the allowed things in our environment are based on physics and causality and random shifting among many worlds is precluded. That’s a good first step for talking about the whys.

[2] Some corresponded around this topic below:
Scott Douglas Jacobsen: IC questions: Why make light elements without stars? Why make heavy elements only in stars? Why stop at heavy element formation at Iron in stars? Why make heavier than Iron elements in super- and hyper-novae explosions? Why end in neutron stars, white dwarfs, or blackish holes? Why these progressions informationally?
These amount to developmental stages in information processing. Organisms are born, develop, mature, decay, and die. Same with the development of complex elements in the universe’s apparent life history. 
Light elements form, then heavy elements in the guts of stars, and then stop at Iron, and then form heavier elements in the spatio-temporal shock waves from supernovae and hypernovae explosions, and then further decay into their embers as white dwarfs, neutron stars, and blackish holes. 
Maybe, these represent information phase changes.
Or maybe, these represent information processing or storage peaks, and then the new mechanisms circumvent the 10^85th information limitations of the bland universe, if averaged, by localizing – heliosphere, heliopause, and so on – information processing and then turning light elements into heavy elements, and the Iron limits of this segmentation requires complete shedding of the fiery skin of the star for a big spatiotemporal shock wave, and then this create heavier elements, where needed – because these heaviest elements only form when up to Iron is no longer good enough and the super heavy elements can be used by all parts of the universe through super spreading.
The last remnants that don’t need active processing anymore, dense data processing, can be stored in the neutron stars and the blackish holes.
The neutron stars and the blackish holes as if big lock-downs like electrons in orbits around nuclei.
Maybe, there’s the transition from magnitude to magnitude, information processing load to information processing load.
That’s funny.
It could match a comedian’s set: setup, punchline, setup, punchline, setup bigger punchline…
Information locked down in atoms and electron orbits. Information processing until light elements, and then lock down, and then information processing in stars into heavy elements, and then lock down, and then supernovae and hypernovae, and then short-term creation of heaviest elements, and the lock down into massive structures such as neutron stars and blackish holes.
It seems clean.
There is 4-dimensionality, but there’s also the dimension or the factor of scale.
Scale might be the dimension of information load, and so relevance to the larger-scale information processing in the universe.
Up-down, left-right, forward-backward as the what – “here’s a bunch of room to do stuff.” Time as stuff taking place in the what, so the how – “here’s a stuff doing stuff in the bunch of room.” The information load or the relevance metric as the why – “here’s the importance of this stuff relative to other smaller stuff based on what this stuff is doing in the bunch of room and its bigness.”
Perhaps, that is the bridge to the why from the how, which is the indication of relevance. No direct translation, but a measurement for hinting at importance.
Then, we can ask the whys.
We can ask those whys with more precision.
I do not know if this can be considered an additional dimension because the standard 4 dimensions translate into space and time in Minkowskian Space. I feel as though the hows lead to the whys, but does not have a bridge. The hows amount to the new set theory and the informational physics as reality. The ethics, from within the universe and derived from the basic premises of logic – so math and set theory, new or old, especially new, give the basis for action from one information processor to another, but come from the logic, or the new set theory and the informational cosmology/physics.
The facts of existence lead to inevitable oughts. Probable is – or seems – derives probable oughts – or might as well.
Hume was right in a cosmos of classical mechanics, of Cartesian coordinate systems, and absolute, linear, and infinitely defined time and space. The facts of existence evolve in an absolute manner, the universe and organisms. No ‘rhyme or reason’ for ought.
In an Einsteinian, Minkowskian, curved, finite, universe with a beginning, and evolved organisms and a universe, it seems better, but much the same. You get, at the limit, deism or a Spinoza pantheism, as did Einstein – as you well know, simply laying the reasoning out as clear and thoroughly as possible.
Deism and pantheism hint at non-random directionality to the universe, but stay without grounded ethics.
I suspect Einstein selected deism/pantheism and secular humanist values based on these reasons. Humanism does not have basic beliefs. It has, as with other belief systems, asserted positions. It rejects gods, God, and the supernatural, though no by necessity rejecting gods or God.
In this interpretation, and seemingly rooted and valid, even sound, humanism becomes another faith system minus pervasive faith, selective faith in humanity and asserted ‘human values.’
IC creates ethics from the bottom-up, following from the logic. The Minkowskian, curved, finite universe with an apparent beginning rooted in information, with scales of emergence – increasing solidity in material or physical reality based on more information to self-define and actualize itself. We have both mentioned these, at disparate times, of the “might as well” ethic the “good enough” organism evolution, and “as if” universe.

The bridge to the bridge to the bridge, and so on, is the no physics and supernatural & absolute ethic (pre-science and religious institutions) to the infinite physics and natural & partial ethic (early science and humanistic institutions) to the finite physics and inevitable ethics.
The finite and inevitable ethics, or ethic, really, as IC in its early development. 
The whys of the universe, the purpose to the universe relative to the armature world becomes the metaphysical whys for the universe, or category 1 whys/primary whys. The relevance of structures of the universe relative to the reality in the armature world, as noted earlier, as the category 2 whys/secondary whys. The third whys, or category 3 whys/tertiary whys, are the relevance – without explicit knowledge and representation of its manifestation in the mind of the armature – of structures, via their magnitude, in the universe, one to the other – one filament to another, and one atom exchanging photons with another in a probabilistically defined space over a relatively defined time. The probabilistic space, or volume, and the time associated with the volume, amount to the information capture, and these can be redefined in the ICST language too. To develop category 2 and category 1 whys, primary and secondary whys, we best explain as best as we can category 3 whys. As near as I can tell, category 3 make the foundation for category 2, and category 3, then 2, build the bases for category 1.
These relate the physics, the set theory, the ethics, the hows, and differentiate whys and set us, potentially, on a course to answering them.

Born to do Math 57 - Hows, then Whys (Part 1)
Scott Douglas Jacobsen & Rick Rosner
May 3, 2017

[Beginning of recorded material]

Rick Rosner: You wanted to talk about the whys of informational cosmology. We have covered the hows. We have covered the whys to some extent. We can try to cover them more systematically. This will be pretty hand wavey and flailly. We can start with the principle that things exist. The principle that things exist. The obvious—if you start with the statement, “things exist.” It is because we experience things exist.

Things may not exist in the way we think they exist, which is kind of the Matrix Principle. That what we’re experiencing is not necessarily reality. There is no permanent existence. That is, when we die, our experience of the world goes away and everything may eventually wink out of existence, but within the frame of existence that we seem to exist in a world that exists. We can talk about that apparent existence as something.

Whether it is true or not rather than pure nothingness because we don’t experience pure nothingness, we experience the world and ourselves, regardless of the deep reality of that experience of existence. Then you can get into existences of “Why can it exist?” versus “Why must it exist?” Those questions you’d hope would boil down to the same question. That when you have the things that can exist, that leads to further questions.

“Why this world among all of the possible worlds that exist?” That leads to things like the Many Worlds Theory. It says, “Any world that can exist does exist. We only see the world that we’re in. Why can we see this world and not other worlds?” Because we’re made of an informational relationship between this world. We have a history of interaction with this world. This is the world we’re in and interacting with.

It has a tautological stink to it. But if we were in another of these possible worlds, we’d be other people who would exist within the context of having a history with those other worlds. So it goes back to the question that kids ask, “Why am I me and not somebody else?” It is because you are defined by your memories, tendencies that have been set up in your brain for how you process information.


Your history as yourself. All of which constitute your identity. If you were somebody else, you’d be that other person because all of your information pertains to you, which has the stink of tautology. So trying to sort out why this world must be our world versus other possible worlds, there are arguments to be made that the other possible worlds are not possible for various reasons such as that we have a history with this world that precludes a bunch of other worlds.

[Beginning of recorded material]

Rick Rosner: Through that perspective, we can talk more about that later. But roughly, you’d expect more examples of just a couple of variables correlated together, or just a few correlated variables, say in a Helium atom rather than in a complicated system of correlated variables that you might find in a Tungsten atom, or a Gold atom, or a Lead atom, or Plutonium atom – which has 240 (?) or some protons or neutrons locked together.


It is in some kind of informationally covarying thing. That’s where I want to stop before I get too much into the weeds.

Scott Douglas Jacobsen & Rick Rosner
May 1, 2017

[Beginning of recorded material]

Rick Rosner: Another thing you can do by correlating variables that by combining variables that are strongly correlated with one another. There is as it turns out a strong correlated between parental income and SAT scores. Alright, so, how about a correlation between grade point using AP scores – giving a bonus point for taking AP classes – and grade point not taking AP classes? Those are probably correlated.

So you throw out AP grade point, no AP grade point. You take the two highly correlated variables and then combine them. In a universe, in an IC universe, some variables should be highly correlated. If we’re looking at protons as representing some kind of variable, highly correlated variables should be spatially proximate. They should be close together. If they are super close together, then they pretty much act as one thing in the information space.

They should be locked together, say in a nucleus – or at least in a molecule. A molecule is a looser aggregation of protons, neutrons and electrons than a nucleus is, but they both represent a locking together. If we’re right about matter representing information in variables, then it is a locking together of correlated variables.
