Natural Communication
In Natural Communication, the author criticizes the current paradigm of specific goal orientation in the complexity sciences. His model of "natural communication" encapsulates modern theoretical concepts from mathematics and physics, in particular category theory and quantum theory. The author is convinced that only by looking to the past is it possible to establish continuity and coherence in the complexity science
A metageometric enquiry concerning time, space, and quantum physics
An enquiry into the physical nature of time and space and into the ontology
of quantum mechanics from a metageometric perspective, resulting from the
belief that geometric thought and language are powerless to farther
understanding of these issues, restricting instead physical progress.
The nature and assumptions of quantum gravity are analysed critically,
including misgivings about the relevance of the Planck scale to it and its lack
of observational referent in the natural world.
The anthropic foundations of geometry are investigated. The exclusive use of
geometric thought from antiquity to present-day physics is found to permeate
all new attempts towards better theories, including quantum gravity and, within
it, even pregeometry.
The problem of the ether is found to have perpetuated itself up to the
present by transmuting its form from mechanical, through metric, to geometric.
A clarification is made of the physical, mathematical, and psychological
foundations of relativity and quantum theories. The former is founded
geometrically on measurement-based clock-reading separations ds. The latter is
founded metageometrically on the experiment-based concepts of premeasurement
and transition things, inspired in the physically unexplored aspect of time as
a consciousness-related product. A concept of metageometric time is developed
and coordinate time t is recovered from it. Discovery of the connection between
quantum-mechanical metageometric time elements and general-relativistic clock
time elements ds is deemed necessary for a combined understanding of time.
Time is conjectured to be the missing link between general relativity and
quantum mechanics.Comment: Ph.D. thesis, 285 pages, LaTeX. Precompiled PDF (3.86 Mb) available

New Directions for Contact Integrators
Contact integrators are a family of geometric numerical schemes which
guarantee the conservation of the contact structure. In this work we review the
construction of both the variational and Hamiltonian versions of these methods.
We illustrate some of the advantages of geometric integration in the
dissipative setting by focusing on models inspired by recent studies in
celestial mechanics and cosmology.Comment: To appear as Chapter 24 in GSI 2021, Springer LNCS 1282
The Multiverse
The multiverse is a concept that acknowledges the existence of a multiplicity of worlds or universes. The designs of these universes do not have to be the same as our universe, but we have no clear view of what the “other” designs might be. It is suspected that they can obey different laws of physics and different constants of physics, which further implies different chemistry, biology, and life. Some say that the universes within the multiverse allow for different mathematics or even for different metamathematical logic. This book discusses most of the above aspects of the multiverse concept starting with the philosophy, through all the mathematical and physical subtleties, finally exploring the origin of life and consciousness. This book provides a satisfying intellectual exploration of front-edge advances in contemporary cosmology
