It has been suggested that reality works like a quantum computer, but such claims are just
words if they are not backed up by sound mathematics. In pursuit of the fundamental
equations I look to string theory where physicists led by Mike Duff have noticed useful
connections between the quantum gravity of black holes and quantum information theory.
By building on my earlier work on universal symmetry in string theory and using links
between elliptic curves and hyperdeterminants, I find intriguing clues that these
connections may be deep as well as useful. Ultimately any theory of the foundations of
physics must explain why there are four forces and three generations of fermions. In
string theory this would be a consequence of the choice of vacua. If a consistent
formulation of string theory constructed from quantum bits can be found, it may be
possible to understand the vast landscape of possibilities better and reverse engineer
the program that codes our universe.

It would seem to me that paragraphs like this serve one main purpose - to
make the reader aware of the reputation of the author and their ability to satisfy
the proposition made by the chosen title. Basically, by the time the reader has
read this abstract they will have become either more eager or more suspicious.
In my estimation, this is a kind of courtship ritual among scientists. I am
like a peacock, I spread my feathers and type/whisper 'whype' sweet things that
entice you into some kind of delusion.
Sadly, for you, you have neither heard of me nor are you at this stage frothing
at the mouth, chomping at the bit to read on. But, surely you must be mad to
stop here.

The holographic principle of black holes tells us the field theoretic information of strings on the event
horizon is completely equivalent to field theoretic information in the spacetime one dimension larger outside.
This physics is observed on a frame stationary with respect to the black hole. The question naturally arises;
what physics is accessed by the observer falling through the event horizon on an inertial frame? This paper
examines this and demonstrates a duality between the two perspectives. This question is important for the
black hole small enough to exhibit fluctuations comparable to its scale. A sufficiently small quantum black
hole will be composed of strings in a superposition of interior and exterior configurations or states

This work is a continuation of the prespacetime model described previously. Here we show
how in this model prespacetime generates: (1) energy-momentum-mass relationship as
transcendental Law of One, (2) self-referential Matrix Law with energy-momentum-mass
relationship as the determinant, (3) dual-world Law of Zero and (4) immanent Law of
Conservation of in the external/internal World which may be violated in certain processes.
We further show how prespactime generates, sustain and makes evolving elementary
particles and composite particles incorporating the genesis of self-referential Matrix Law.
In addition, we discuss the ontology and mathematics of ether in this model. Illustratively,
in the beginning there was prespacetime by itself e0=1 materially empty and it began to
imagine through primordial self-referential spin (see paper) such that it created the self-referential Matrix Law, the external
object to be observed and internal object as observed, separated them into external world
and internal world, caused them to interact through said Matrix Law and thus gave birth to
the Universe which it has since sustained and made to evolve.

There are various physics phenomenon which can find a simple explanation in linking gravity and
electromagnetism. Einstein�s Relativity can simply explain only the
mass because he considered time as a scalar rather than a vector. The intension of this
paper is to propose a new point of view, treating time as a three-dimensional vector,
finding three vector value formula by three-dimensional space-time formula (curvature formula),
finding a new symmetry on the plane for a wave equation substitute for
Maxwell�s symmetrical wave, only E and only B, not E and B linked. This linking
is in error; in fact they are a two sum effect. The electromagnetic wave in space has,
as well known, three energy component: B field E field and wave length (frequency).
This energy is acknowledged, but we must see the wave like an elastic chain of single
wavelets (a string of individual wavelets).

A proposal to reconstruct physics from simple physically realistic first principles is outlined
using a Beautiful Universe model. Just one type of �building block� is used: a
spherically-symmetrical charged node spinning with angular momentum in units of Planck�s
constant (h). Rotating nodes magnetize and self-assemble as a regular face-centered cubic
attice to form the vacuum, radiation and matter. Three space and one time dimension are
derived from the lattice and node interactions. Mutual repulsion between nodes with their
like poles aligned accounts both for the accelerating expansion of the universe (dark energy)
and the vacuum pressure on matter (dark matter). A spinning node transfers its angular momentum
to adjacent nodes by rotating on an orthogonal axis, thus creating an electromagnetic field with
forward momentum. The spin rate of the node receiving the momentum, its �density� determines the
variable rate cv at which it receives the radiation. In a vacuum cv is the maximum, c0 the
velocity of light. Two or more adjacent nodes locked together through a tensegrity of attractive
(+ -) and repulsive electrostatic forces form as matter. The surrounding nodes twist and orient
their axes to form magnetic, gravitational or electrostatic fields. The inverse-square law and
E=mc02 are derived from the resulting geometry. Motion of matter is a self-convolution of an
energy pattern in the lattice. This links Newtonian force and mass directly to domino-like transfer
of momentum between nodes, in units of h, whereby a collision causes a relativistic contraction
of an object�s length. Doppler shifts in the signals used by an outside observer to measure
the moving object causes a further contraction in the estimated length, equivalent to time
dilation. The two effects explain a result of Special relativity in classical terms. Using
the Hamiltonian Analogy and the idea of a node index of refraction n=c0/cv General Relativity
is reduced to the dynamics of energy transport along streamlines made up of nodes of different
rotation. Variable velocity along curved streamlines is acceleration and hence gravity. Quantum
probability is derived from the electric field of a dipole wave in the lattice where Heisenberg�s
uncertainty relations emerge naturally from the resulting geometry. Cosmological inflation, but
not a Big-Bang singularity would result from initial conditions of nodes in their closest
proximity to each other. The outline of a discrete calculus needed to describe the model�s
interactions is presented. Some experiments are proposed to test various aspects of the model.
