Quantum Theory. Quantum Chaos. Quantum Supremacy
“Hidden beneath our everyday world — on the infinitesimal scale of atomic and subatomic particles — is a strange and elusive realm. It is a place where ghostly particles pop in and out of existence, swirling electrons occupy two positions at once, and objects possess dual natures — they can be both waves and particles simultaneously.” The most mysterious theory in all of science, the quantum theory is the most precisely tested and most successful theory in the history of science.
What the quantum mystery is? Proposed by Werner Heisenberg in 1925 and Erwin Schrodinger in 1926, quantum theory, was recognized from the start as an unexpectedly radical break from previous physics.
Quantum physics, or quantum mechanics, is physics at a microscopic scale. Quantum theory seeks to describe matter and energy at atomic and sub-atomic levels where classical physics does not always apply due to wave-particle duality and the uncertainty principle.
Quantum chaos, or quantum chaology as it is better called, is the study of the relationship between chaos in the macroscopic or classical domain and the quantum domain. The implications of chaos in classical physics for quantum systems have received some intensely focused study, with questions raised about the actual existence of chaos in the quantum domain and the viability of the correspondence principle between classical and quantum mechanics to name the most provocative.
In October 2019 Google declared it had achieved “quantum supremacy” by eclipsing the performance of classical supercomputers. The tech group said its Sycamore quantum processor had, in 200 seconds, performed a task that would take the world’s best supercomputer 10,000 years to complete, although the magnitude of this claim is disputed by the IBM corporation.
Paavo Pylkkänen is a professor at the University of Helsinki, Finland and the University of Skövde, Sweden who researches the philosophical implications of the ontological interpretation of quantum mechanics developed by de Broglie, Bohm, and Hiley. This interpretation sees the electron as both a particle and an active quantum wave field of information that guides the particle's behavior. Pylkkänen is particularly interested in how this concept of active information may apply beyond quantum physics in areas like biology, information technology, and cognitive science.
The majority of physicists take it for granted that the universe is made up of matter. In turn, matter is
composed of atoms; atoms are made up of particles such as electrons, protons, neutrons, etc. Also, protons
and neutrons are composed of quarks, etc. Furthermore, that everything in nature is governed by the
known laws of physics and chemistry. The author only partially shares this view. He argues that many
phenomena in the universe may depend on rules or factors as yet incorporated by the physical sciences.
The last few years have led him to reflect on the many unsolved physics problems, such as the quest for the
theory of everything (ToE), the arrow of time, the interpretation of quantum mechanics, the fine-tuned
universe, etc. to mention just a few. The author posits that a field carries information, performs various
mathematical and computational operations, and behaves as an intelligent entity embedded with
consciousness.
The search for a comprehensive theory of quantum gravity (QG) and the theory of everything (ToE) is anongoing process. Among the plethora of theories, some of the leading ones are string theory and loopquantum gravity. The present article focuses on the computational theory of everything (CToE). Theauthor argues that the universe behaves computationally, by performing operations such as addition, subtraction, and multiplication. Computation seems to be a process by which space and time were formed and as a result of which matter, particles, and indeed everything in the universe, take form and grow.Computation, or natural computation, appears to be the universal mechanism that runs the entire universe. Based on the theoretical evidence and the empirical data from physics and theoretical computer science,the author has put forward the CToE as an alternative to string theory (ST) and loop quantum gravity(LQG), in the quest of the ToE.

Not only is the universe stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we can imagine
Sir Arthur Eddington
Abstract
This paper explores the idea that the universe is a virtual reality created by information
processing, and relates this strange idea to the findings of modern physics about the physical
world. The virtual reality concept is familiar to us from online worlds, but our world as a virtual
reality is usually a subject for science fiction rather than science. Yet logically the world could be
an information simulation running on a multi-dimensional space-time screen. Indeed, if the
essence of the universe is information, matter, charge, energy and movement could be aspects of
information, and the many conservation laws could be a single law of information conservation.
If the universe were a virtual reality, its creation at the big bang would no longer be paradoxical,
as every virtual system must be booted up. It is suggested that whether the world is an objective
reality or a virtual reality is a matter for science to resolve. Modern information science can
suggest how core physical properties like space, time, light, matter and movement could derive
from information processing. Such an approach could reconcile relativity and quantum theories,
with the former being how information processing creates space-time, and the latter how it
creates energy and matter.
Key words: Digital physics, virtual reality, information theory
Modern online games show that information processing can create virtual “worlds”, with their
own time, space, entities and objects, e.g. “The Sims”. However that our physical world is a
virtual reality (VR) is normally considered a topic of science fiction, religion or philosophy, not a
theory of physics. Yet the reader is asked to keep an open mind, as one should at least consider a
theory before rejecting it. This paper asks if a world that behaves just like the world we live in
could arise from a VR simulation. It first defines what VR theory entails, asks if it is logically
possible, then considers if it explains known facts better than other theories.
Strange Physics
While virtual reality theory seems strange, so do other current theories of physics, e.g. the many-
worlds view of quantum physics proposes that each quantum choice divides the universe into
parallel universes [1], so everything that can happen does in fact happen somewhere, in an
inconceivable “multi-verse’ of parallel universes. This is a minority view but surprisingly
popular. Even relatively main-stream physics theories are quite strange. Guth’s inflationary model
suggests that our universe is just one of many “bubble universes” produced by the big bang [2].

Quantum computing harnesses quantum mechanics to perform computations using quantum bits (qubits) that can exist in superpositions of states. It has the potential to solve certain problems, like integer factorization, much faster than classical computers. Several companies like IBM, Microsoft, Google, and D-Wave are actively researching and developing quantum computers using different technologies like ion traps and superconducting circuits. Potential applications include simulation, machine learning, cryptography, and more. However, building a large-scale, practical quantum computer remains a significant technical challenge.
The paper proposes a model of a unitary quantum field theory where the particle is represented as a wave packet. The frequency dispersion equation is chosen so that the packet periodically appears and disappears without changing its form. The envelope of the process is identified with a conventional wave function. Equation of such a field is nonlinear and relativistically invariant. With proper adjustments, they are reduced to Dirac, Schroedinger and Hamilton-Jacobi equations. A number of new experimental effects are predicted both for high and low energies.
Earth and human survival on it is endangered. Drastic climatic changes, restlessness of various ecological systems speaks this. The knowledge we have acquired seems very much wanting to survive the disastrous end to which we are moving. We need to know Truth of Nature and its working in a simple manner and act quickly to survive on earth.
This document summarizes a philosophy of technology lecture given by Melanie Swan. Some of the key topics discussed include contemporary philosophy of technology, the historical views of technology from Aristotle to Heidegger, issues of unthinkability and complexity in technology, different conceptions of time between humans and machines, and how this relates to an overarching theme of composable reality. The document also discusses potential applications of brain-computer interfaces and different models of human relations with technology from prosthetics to data and drones.
Based on recent work on quantum gravity and the holographic principle I argue that, instead of thinking of the universe as a 'bubble out of nothing', we should think of space, time, and gravity as emerging 'out of information'.
This presentation discusses quantum concepts including:
1. The quantum mindset of thinking in terms of superposition and multiplicity to solve problems.
2. Kant's view of time as both transcendentally ideal and empirically real, with infinite multiplicities existing simultaneously.
3. Applying the quantum mindset to economics, with money having both virtual and physical properties like quantum objects, and blockchain enabling new economic designs based on use value over exchange value.
This essay is a compilation of ideas, opinions, and conjectures from two previous essays, "Is Science Solving the Reality Riddle," and "Order, Chaos, and the End of Reductionism," and was expanded to include subsequent essays. It is very much a work in progress and has been repeatedly amended when necessary. The author concludes that current scientific theories are incomplete and limit our understanding of nature in a fundamental way, the current description of how the universe eveolved is wrong, and a new evolutionary paradigm is presented that explains both the physical and mental evolutionary processes.
1. The document discusses the origins and meaning of the word "cybernetics", which comes from the Greek word "kybernētēs" meaning helmsman or governor.
2. It explores cybernetics as the science of communication and control in both human and machine systems. Cybernetics looks at how any system uses feedback to regulate itself and achieve goals.
3. The author argues that cybernetics has applications across many fields of science and technology, from the solar system to computer programming. It allows systems of all kinds to receive input, process it, and produce output to accomplish tasks.
Abstract: Dr. David Joseph Bohm an American scientist who theorized quantum mechanics in the most ordinary and understandable way, which is somewhat referred to as the “Pilot Wave-model”. Also he prophesized in neuropsychology, and gave the Holonomic model of brain affecting our view of the quantum mechanics. His theories suggest that the phenomenon of “NON LOCALITY” or quantum entanglement is due to the famous “frame dragging” phenomenon predicted by Sir. Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity.
Bohm’s theory also suggests that time doesn’t exist in the way we think it does as stated by “THE BIG CRUNCH” theory. According to it time exists due to the interacting frequencies of the waves due to particle vibrations in space and that the universe never began.
In this paper existence of quantum entanglement is used to question the degree of correctness of the Space-time fabric theory.

String theory proposes that fundamental particles are not point-like but are tiny vibrating strings. It aims to unify quantum mechanics and general relativity by incorporating gravity into a theory of everything at very small scales. String theory predicts that spacetime has 10 dimensions rather than the observed 4 dimensions, with the extra 6 dimensions being curled up too small to detect directly. While strings have never been observed, string theory remains a promising area of research as the only known way to reconcile quantum mechanics and general relativity.
Black holes as tools for quantum computing by advanced extraterrestrial civil...Sérgio Sacani
We explain that black holes are the most efficient capacitors of quantum information. It is thereby expected that all sufficiently advanced civilizations ultimately employ black holes in their quantum computers. The accompanying Hawking radiation is democratic in particle species. Due to this, the alien quantum computers will radiate in ordinary particles such as neutrinos and photons within the range of potential sensitivity of our detectors. This offers a new avenue for SETI, including the civilizations entirely composed of hidden particles species interacting with our world exclusively through gravity.
A brief introduction to the subquantum regime, where the origination of all the observable events and processes of tour physical world can be found. Descending along the scale supplied by the divisibility of Quanta toward increasingly fine structures bearing fractional charges, down to the infinitesimal values where Information couples to space and time, we penetrate into a new, still barely explored reality, which nonetheless is supported by the laws of modern physics. We just begin understanding the properties of the physical vacuum, where entities displaying collective coherent behavior patterns are at the background of all the manifestation forms described by Quantum mechanics. We postulate that these understanding apply also to the synergetic mechanisms linking the human brain to processes that run in Informatic space, due to the morphogenetic blueprints responsible for its specially adapted structure for processing Informatic fields that are encountered along the biological entity’s worldline. The Information transfer is accomplished by subquantum flux vectors propagating at super-luminal velocities, velocities that theoretically are not prohibited beyond the application range of relativistic constraints. All these processes run under higher control instances embedded in Bohm’s super-implicated orders of Reality.

The document discusses concepts from Advaita Vedanta and how modern science echoes some of its realizations about the nature of reality. It covers topics like the non-dual nature of Brahman, the illusory and relative nature of the universe, the concept of multiple universes from Vedic texts like similarities to modern scientific theories like string theory and M-theory. It also discusses quantum phenomena like entanglement and how it challenges classical notions of space, time and causality based on observations echoing non-dualistic ideas of the oneness of existence.
Quantum theory describes reality on the smallest scales and has led to many modern technologies. It describes phenomena like particles existing in multiple places at once, which contradicts classical notions of physics. Quantum mechanics emerged in the early 20th century through the works of scientists like Heisenberg, Schrodinger and Planck, and provides the basis for chemistry, biology, electronics and more. The Islamic perspective is that Allah is simultaneously everywhere in the universe and closer than our jugular vein, demonstrating a duality consistent with quantum theory.
This document presents an introduction to the strand model, which is a speculative theory that aims to provide a unified description of all motion and physics. It begins with a preface that outlines the goal of finding a final, unified theory and summarizes the key points covered in previous volumes. The document then provides arguments for why nature exhibits extension and continuity at small scales based on limits from general relativity and quantum theory. It introduces the idea that strands, which are continuously distributed, rotating entities, may serve as the basis for deriving the known descriptions of physics. The strand model aims to address all open questions in modern physics and provide a single framework that unifies quantum theory and general relativity.

The document discusses concepts from Advaita Vedanta and how modern science echoes some of its realizations about the nature of reality. It covers topics like the non-dual nature of Brahman, the illusory and relative nature of the universe, the concept of multiple universes from Vedic texts like similarities to modern scientific theories like string theory and M-theory. It also discusses quantum phenomena like entanglement and how it challenges classical notions of space, time and causality based on observations echoing non-dualistic ideas of the oneness of existence.
Quantum theory describes reality on the smallest scales and has led to many modern technologies. It describes phenomena like particles existing in multiple places at once, which contradicts classical notions of physics. Quantum mechanics emerged in the early 20th century through the works of scientists like Heisenberg, Schrodinger and Planck, and provides the basis for chemistry, biology, electronics and more. The Islamic perspective is that Allah is simultaneously everywhere in the universe and closer than our jugular vein, demonstrating a duality consistent with quantum theory.
This document presents an introduction to the strand model, which is a speculative theory that aims to provide a unified description of all motion and physics. It begins with a preface that outlines the goal of finding a final, unified theory and summarizes the key points covered in previous volumes. The document then provides arguments for why nature exhibits extension and continuity at small scales based on limits from general relativity and quantum theory. It introduces the idea that strands, which are continuously distributed, rotating entities, may serve as the basis for deriving the known descriptions of physics. The strand model aims to address all open questions in modern physics and provide a single framework that unifies quantum theory and general relativity.

The most mysterious theory in all
of science, quantum theory,
fascinates me.
I have begun my studies towards a Doctorate in Quantum Computing at Capitol
Technology University, USA. I have been a doctoral researcher since January 2020;
but my resume is something less than a straight line. It includes an MS in
Mathematics and twenty years of professional experience in a number of science
and technology-related roles in many different cultures in Europe, Asia, and the
United States of America.
I am a Ukrainian native who has been living in Berlin, Germany, since 2013.
My character, beliefs, and professional experience have been shaped by many
diverse events in my life: “tornadoes" of activities, solitude, the heat of Tashkent,
the cold of Moscow; all have played a part in how I experience the world.
I stepped into the global streams of news & social media in search of my passion
and a positive future. My political and religious affiliation is not with any nation-
state or organization, but with humanity in general. My interests intersect in
science, business strategy, education, technology, entrepreneurship, free markets
and the rule of law. My passion lies in the possibilities existing at the vortex of
science, technology, and the human spirit.
For years, I have revelled in the extreme challenges of mathematical analysis. The
most mysterious theory in all of science, quantum theory, fascinates me.

Skilled for success in the era of technological breakthroughs?
A word ‘unprecedented’ seems too weak to convey just how
much the dimensionless operational space of digital (r)evolution
requires instantaneous reaction. ´Quantum thinking´ notion
sparked my mind and here I am, `Back to School`. This time with
one of the world-of-science´s leading topic: the Quantum Realm.
A central topic of this presentation is the mystery of the
quantum universe. A fundamental and delicate question at the
heart of my work is: how to motivate my readers to rise above
the information noise, to discover scientific knowledge and stay
connected to the world of science.
I advocate a Systems Thinking approach in informing my readers,
followers, friends, business associates about digital
transformation, emerging technologies, cybersecurity and
science, including developments in the field of quantum science,
quantum technology and quantum devices, and with practical
applications arising from research in this multidisciplinary field.

Quantum Theory. Quantum Chaos. Quantum Supremacy
“Hidden beneath our everyday world — on the infinitesimal scale of atomic and subatomic particles —
is a strange and elusive realm. It is a place where ghostly particles pop in and out of existence,
swirling electrons occupy two positions at once, and objects possess dual natures — they can be both
waves and particles simultaneously.” The most mysterious theory in all of science, the quantum theory
is the most precisely tested and most successful theory in the history of science.
What the quantum mystery is? Proposed by Werner Heisenberg in 1925 and Erwin Schrodinger in
1926, quantum theory, was recognized from the start as an unexpectedly radical break from previous
physics.
Quantum physics, or quantum mechanics, is physics at a microscopic scale. Quantum theory seeks to
describe matter and energy at atomic and sub-atomic levels where classical physics does not always
apply due to wave-particle duality and the uncertainty principle.
Quantum chaos, or quantum chaology as it is better called, is the study of the relationship between
chaos in the macroscopic or classical domain and the quantum domain. The implications of chaos in
classical physics for quantum systems have received some intensely focused study, with questions
raised about the actual existence of chaos in the quantum domain and the viability of the
correspondence principle between classical and quantum mechanics to name the most provocative.
In October 2019 Google declared it had achieved “quantum supremacy” by eclipsing the performance
of classical supercomputers. The tech group said its Sycamore quantum processor had, in 200
seconds, performed a task that would take the world’s best supercomputer 10,000 years to complete,
although the magnitude of this claim is disputed by the IBM corporation.

Quantum mechanics real-world applications
Presently, one of the most ambitious technological goals is the development of devices working
under the laws of quantum mechanics. Here are a few stunning real-world quantum mechanics
applications: ultra-precise clocks; uncrackable codes; improved microscopes; biological compasses;
semiconductor devices; super-powerful computers.
One prominent target is the quantum computer. All computing systems, including supercomputers,
the HPC - High-Performance Computing - systems, rely on a fundamental ability to store and
manipulate information. Modern computers manipulate individual bits, which store information as
binary 0 and 1 states. Quantum computers leverage quantum mechanical phenomena to manipulate
information. To do this, they rely on quantum bits, or qubits. Quantum computers, when built, might
stimulate the progress of new breakthroughs in science, societies and the outer space.
Quantum programming is the process of assembling sequences of instructions, called quantum
programs, that are capable of running on a quantum computer. Quantum programming languages
help express quantum algorithms using high-level constructs.
One of the first implemented quantum programming languages is the QCL - Quantum Computing
Language. QCL is a high level, architecture independent programming language for quantum
computers, with a syntax derived from classical procedural languages like C or Pascal.

Quantum physics works and finally receives the attention
it deserves.
An open immeasurable non-linear System of Systems - the Quantum Realm, where Quantum Fields,
Quantum Entanglement, Quantum Engineering, Quantum Cryptography, Quantum Intelligence,
Quantum Thinking, Quantum Algorithms, Quantum Chaos phenomena are a few of many (to be
defined) interconnected elements of this universal system.
Werner Heisenberg, a German physicist, determined (1927) that our observations have an effect on
the behaviour of quanta and stated that the position and the velocity of an object cannot both be
measured exactly, at the same time, even in theory. Since quantum mechanics underlies almost all
modern technology, the Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle turns up all over the place. It also plays a
more direct role in the quantum technologies of the 21st century, which are just being developed
now. In the regime of quantum experiments we are uncertain about the results of experiments
because the particle itself is uncertain. It has no position or speed until we measure it. Or so
Heisenberg thought, and most physicists still follow this line.
It is uncertain when the first true quantum computer will arrive. Here and now, we do not know if
quantum computers will be just a very specialised tool or a big revolution for humanity. We have no
idea where the limits of technologies are and there is only one way to find out: to step into the field of
the quantum applied science and research.

Quantum Computing Glossary.
• Quantum: In physics, a quantum (plural quanta) is the minimum amount of any physical entity
(physical property) involved in an interaction.
• Quantum World(s): The quantum world is the world that's smaller than an atom. Things at this
scale don't behave the same way as objects on the scale that we can see.
• Quantum Realism: Quantum realism (QR) is the view that what quantum theory describes is real.
In physical realism, the physical world is real and the quantum world is imaginary, but in quantum
realism, quantum processing generates physical events as a virtual reality and the physical world
is just an interface.
• Quantum Theory: Quantum theory (otherwise known as quantum physics or quantum
mechanics) is one of the two main planks of modern physics, along with general relativity, and
between them the two theories claim to explain virtually everything about the universe. General
relativity gives us our picture of the very big (space-time and gravity), while quantum theory gives
us our picture of the very small (atoms and their constituents).
• Quantum Field Theory: Quantum Fields. Fields of Reality. Quantum theory tells us that in the
real world, everything is "field". When one wants to talk about the matter and its behaviour in the
world of the infinitely small particles, it addresses the quantum field theory. Quantum field theory
allows, understand particle physics.

• Quantum Computing: Quantum Computing is the use of quantum-mechanical phenomena such
as superposition and entanglement to perform computation.
• Qubit: In quantum computing, a #qubit (/ˈkjuːbɪt/) or quantum bit (sometimes qbit) is the basic unit
of quantum information—the quantum version of the classical binary bit physically realized with a
two-state device. A qubit is a two-state (or two-level) quantum-mechanical system, one of the
simplest quantum systems displaying the peculiarity of quantum mechanics.
• Quantum Programming: Quantum programming is the process of assembling sequences of
instructions, called quantum programs, that are capable of running on a quantum computer.
Quantum programming languages help express quantum algorithms using high-level constructs.
• Cirq: Cirq is an open-source framework for Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) computers.
Cirq was developed by the Google AI Quantum Team, and the public alpha was announced at the
International Workshop on Quantum Software and Quantum Machine Learning on July 18, 2018.
A demo by QC Ware showed an implementation of QAOA solving an example of the maximum cut
problem being solved on a Cirq simulator.
• Qiskit: Qiskit is an open-source framework for quantum computing. It provides tools for creating
and manipulating quantum programs and running them on prototype quantum devices on IBM Q
Experience or on simulators on a local computer.
• Quil: Quil is a quantum instruction set architecture that first introduced a shared quantum/classical
memory model. It was introduced by Robert Smith, Michael Curtis, and William Zeng in A Practical
Quantum Instruction Set Architecture.
