Fusions of Consciousness

Area of Science:

• Theoretical Physics
• Consciousness Studies
• Mathematical Modeling

Background:

• Current understanding questions the fundamental nature of spacetime.
• Physicists suggest spacetime is not a fundamental entity.
• Existing theories often assume spacetime as foundational.

Purpose of the Study:

• To develop a mathematical theory of conscious agents.
• To explore the combination and fusion of agents and qualia.
• To propose a new framework where spacetime emerges from consciousness.

Main Methods:

• Mathematical theory of conscious agents using Markov chains.
• Defining the Markov polytope (Mn) for agent dynamics.
• Defining the fusion simplex (Fn) for qualia fusions.
• Mapping Markov chains to decorated permutations to link agent dynamics to spacetime scattering processes.

Main Results:

• Demonstrated how agents combine into complex agents and fuse into simpler ones.
• Showed how qualia can fuse to create new qualia.
• Developed a projection from Markovian dynamics of conscious agents to scattering processes in spacetime.
• Proposed that particles in spacetime are projections of agent interactions.

Conclusions:

• Conscious agents and experiences, rather than spacetime, are proposed as fundamental.
• Spacetime and its scattering processes may be emergent phenomena derived from agent interactions.
• This theory provides a novel perspective on the relationship between consciousness and physics.
