Mathematical Electron

The mathematical electron model [1] applies to Simulation Hypothesis (where the universe resembles a computer simulation) programming. This model is used to simulate physical structures (the Planck units) from a mathematical object - a dimensionless electron formula fe.

In the context of this model, all events are seen as occurring at the Planck level, which is a mathematical world. The Planck level uses discrete events at unit Planck time, the quantum level includes the dimension of time [2].

The mathematical electron fe is derived from the geometry of 2 dimensionless physical constants, the fine structure constant α and Omega Ω, and so fe is also a natural (dimensionless) physical constant independent of any system of units.



Geometrical objects

From fe, (Planck) units; mass , length , time , and ampere can be constructed as dimensionless geometrical objects in terms of (α, Ω). Being independent of any numerical system and of any system of units, these MLTA units qualify as "natural units";

...ihre Bedeutung für alle Zeiten und für alle, auch außerirdische und außermenschliche Kulturen notwendig behalten und welche daher als »natürliche Maßeinheiten« bezeichnet werden können...

...These necessarily retain their meaning for all times and for all civilizations, even extraterrestrial and non-human ones, and can therefore be designated as "natural units"... -Max Planck [3][4]

Scalars

To translate from geometrical objects to a numerical system of units such as the SI units requires scalars (ktpvpa) that can be assigned numerical values.

Scalar relationships

The following un groups cancel, as such only 2 (associated) scalars are actually required, for example, if we know a and l then we know k and t (as in the following examples). AL as an ampere-meter (ampere-length) are the units for a magnetic monopole.

In this example units LPVA are derived from MT. The formulas for MT;

PV to MTLA

In this example units MLTA are derived from PV. The formulas for PV;

Replacing scalars klta with pv


Physical constants

In this example, to maintain integer exponents, scalar p is defined in terms of a scalar r.

As α and Ω have fixed values, 2 scalars are also needed to solve the physical constants as numerical values. The Planck units are known with a low precision, conversely 2 of the CODATA 2014 physical constants have been assigned exact numerical values; c and permeability of vacuum μ0. Thus scalars r and v were chosen as they can be derived directly from V = c and μ0.

Note that r, v, Ω, α are dimensionless numbers, it is only when we replace un with the SI unit equivalents (u15 → kg, u-13 → m, u-30 → s, ...) that the geometrical objects (i.e.: c* = 2πΩ2v = 299792458, units = u17) become indistinguishable from their respective physical constants (i.e.: c = 299792458, units = m/s). If this mathematical relationship can therefore be identified within the SI units themselves, then we have a strong argument for a mathematical Planck level.

The geometry Ω15 is common to unit-less ratios.


Electron formula

Although the Planck units MLTA can be expressed in terms of the electron formula fe, this formula is both unit-less and non scalable k0t0v0r0a0u0 = 1. It is therefore a dimensionless physical constant, σe has units for a magnetic monopole, σtp a temperature `monopole'.


Fine structure constant

The Sommerfeld fine structure constant alpha is a dimensionless physical constant. Note here I use common usage alpha = 137.03599...

Omega

The most precise of the experimentally measured constants is the Rydberg R = 10973731.568508(65) 1/m. Here c, μ0, R are combined into a unit-less ratio;

We can now define Ω using the geometries for (c*, μ0*, R*) and then solve by replacing (c*, μ0*, R*) with the numerical (c, μ0, R) CODATA 2014 values.

There is a close natural number for Ω that is a square root implying that Ω can have a plus or a minus solution;


G, h, e, me, kB

As geometrical objects, the physical constants (G, h, e, me, kB) can be defined using the geometrical formulas for (c*, μ0*, R*) and solved using the CODATA 2014 numerical values for (c, μ0, R, α), i.e.:.

2019 SI unit revision

Following the 26th General Conference on Weights and Measures (2019 redefinition of SI base units) are fixed the numerical values of the 4 physical constants (h, c, e, kB). In the context of this model however only 2 base units may be assigned by committee as the rest are then numerically fixed by default (i.e.: derived via the electron itself) and so the revision may lead to unintended consequences where experimentally measured values may differ according to which instruments (means of calibration) are being used;

Mathematical Universe

The mathematical universe refers to universe models whose underlying premise is that the physical universe has a mathematical origin, the physical (particle) universe is a construct of the mathematical universe, and as such physical reality is a perceived reality. It can be considered a form of Pythagoreanism or Platonism in that it proposes the existence of mathematical objects; and a form of mathematical monism in that it denies that anything exists except these mathematical objects.

Simulation theory (The Simulation Universe Hypothesis where the universe is a simulated reality, the analogy being a computer game), is a limited mathematical universe model in which the mathematical objects exist only within the framework of (computer) "source code", the Simulated Universe as manipulated data and the question of what lies outside the simulation has no meaning. Universe simulation models are typically associated with digital time.

Physicist Max Tegmark in his book "Our Mathematical Universe: My Quest for the Ultimate Nature of Reality"[8][9] proposed that Our external physical reality is a mathematical structure.[10] That is, the physical universe is not merely described by mathematics, but is mathematics (specifically, a mathematical structure). Mathematical existence equals physical existence, and all structures that exist mathematically exist physically as well. Any "self-aware substructures will subjectively perceive themselves as existing in a physically 'real' world".[11]

Many works of science fiction as well as some forecasts by serious technologists and futurologists predict that enormous amounts of computing power will be available in the future. Let us suppose for a moment that these predictions are correct. One thing that later generations might do with their super-powerful computers is run detailed simulations of their forebears or of people like their forebears. Because their computers would be so powerful, they could run a great many such simulations. Suppose that these simulated people are conscious (as they would be if the simulations were sufficiently fine-grained and if a certain quite widely accepted position in the philosophy of mind is correct). Then it could be the case that the vast majority of minds like ours do not belong to the original race but rather to people simulated by the advanced descendants of an original race. It is then possible to argue that, if this were the case, we would be rational to think that we are likely among the simulated minds rather than among the original biological ones. |Nick Bostrom, Are you living in a computer simulation?, 2003[12]
