元胞自动机理论与物理学:统一物理学的新范式

Cellular Automata Theory and Physics: A new Paradigm for the Unification of Physics

Tom Ostoma, Mike Trushyk

摘要:

描述了物理学统一的新范式。它被称为元胞自动机(CA)理论,这是目前科学界已知的最大规模并行计算机模型。我们坚持认为,在最小的距离和时间尺度上,宇宙是完全确定的,完全简单的。我们的宇宙是一个元胞自动机,由大量能够存储数字信息的细胞组成。这些细胞形成一个巨大的3D“几何”CA,其中每个细胞有26个周围的相邻细胞,这些细胞影响给定细胞的状态。CA理论直接意味着所有的物理定律必须产生于严格的局部相互作用,因此禁止任何形式的超距作用。元胞自动机理论认为,空间、时间、物质、能量和运动都是同一个东西:信息在元胞自动机中改变状态的最终结果。CA模型自动包含一个固有的最大速度限制,信息可以从一个地方移动到另一个地方。我们提出,光(光子)的运动是固定的,简单的移动光子信息模式从细胞到相邻的细胞在每个“时钟周期”。因此,光子只以一个固定的速度“旅行”,这是不受任何可能的源运动。通过采用绝对CA空间和时间坐标来描述具有相对速度“v”的惯性参考系中的一对观察者,然后在数学上遵循洛伦兹变换。我们探索这个CA模型对所有物理学的影响。

英文摘要:

A new paradigm for the unification of physics is described. It is called Cellular Automata (CA) theory, which is the most massively parallel computer model currently known to science. We maintain that at the tiniest distance and time scales the universe is completely deterministic, and utterly simple. Our universe is a Cellular Automaton consisting of a huge array of cells capable of storing numeric information. These cells form a vast, 3D 'geometric' CA, where each cell has 26 surrounding neighboring cells that influence the state of a given cell. CA theory directly implies that all the laws of physics must result from interactions that are strictly local, therefore forbidding any form of action at a distance. CA theory suggests that space, time, matter, energy, and motion are all the same thing: the end result of information changing state in the CA. The CA model automatically contains an inherent maximum speed limit for which information can be moved from place to place.We propose that light (photon) motion is the fixed, simple shifting of a photon information pattern from cell to adjacent cell at every 'clock cycle'. Thus photons 'travel' only at one fixed speed, which is unaffected by any possible source motion. By adopting absolute CA space and time coordinates for the description of a pair of observers in inertial reference frames with a relative velocity 'v', then the Lorentz transformation follows mathematically. We explore the ramifications of this CA model for all of physics.
