Abstract

In our previous arXiv papers ("The Information and the Matter", v1, v5; more systematically the informational conception is presented in the paper "The Information as Absolute", 2014) it was rigorously shown that Matter in our Universe-and Universe as a whole-are some informational systems (structures), which exist as uninterruptedly transforming [practically] infinitesimal subsets of the absolutely infinite and fundamental "Information" Set. Such a conception allows not only to clear essentially a number of metaphysical and epistemological problems in philosophy but, besides, allows to suggest a reasonable physical model. Since Matter in Universe is an informational system where every interaction between Matter's sub-structures, i.e.-particles and systems of the particles-happens always as an exchange by exclusively true information between these structures, the model is based on the conjecture that Matter is some analogue of computer. This conjecture, in turn, allows to introduce in the model the basic logical elements that constitute the material structures and support the informational exchange-i.e. the forces-between the structures. The model is experimentally testable and yet now makes be more clear a number of basic problems in special relativity, quantum mechanics, and, rather probably, in [now-in Newtonian] gravity.

Physics as Information Processing
alessandro volta

2010

I review some recent advances in foundational research at Pavia QUIT group. The general idea is that there is only Quantum Theory without quantization rules, and the whole Physics---including space-time and relativity--is emergent from the quantum-information processing. And since Quantum Theory itself is axiomatized solely on informational principles, the whole Physics must be reformulated in information-theoretical terms: this is the "It from Bit of J. A. Wheeler. The review is divided into four parts: a) the informational axiomatization of Quantum Theory; b) how space-time and relativistic covariance emerge from quantum computation; c) what is the information-theoretical meaning of inertial mass and of $\hbar$, and how the quantum field emerges; d) an observational consequence of the new quantum field theory: a mass-dependent refraction index of vacuum. I will conclude with the research lines that will follow in the immediate future.

A Special Relationship Between Matter, Energy, Information, and Consciousness
Ediho Lokanga (PhD, PGCE PCET, FHEA)

2020

This paper discusses the advantages of describing the universe, or nature, in terms of information and consciousness. Some problems encountered by theoretical physicists in the quest for the theory of everything stem from the limitations of trying to understand everything in terms of matter and energy only. However, if everything, including matter, energy, life, and mental processes, is described in terms of information and consciousness, much progress can be made in the search for the ultimate theory of the universe. As brilliant and successful as physics and chemistry have been over the last two centuries, it is important that nature is not viewed solely in terms of matter and energy. Two additional components are needed to unlock her secrets. While extensive writing exists that describes the connection between matter and energy and their physical basis, little work has been done to learn the special relationship between matter, energy, information, and consciousness.

Information: What Do You Mean. On the Formative Element of our Universe
Dirk K F Meijer

Information: what do you mean? On the formative element of our universe , 2013

Information is considered as a fundamental building block of reality, along with matter and energy. Yet the word information is often employed as a container term that represents many different modalities ranging from information constituting a physical parameter to the daily transmission of the news in human culture. Information is particularly known from the description of nature at its micro-level and from computer science (bits an qbits), but also is essential in understanding the evolution of macrostructures in the Universe. The interactions of subatomic waves/particles subsequent to the Big Bang, guided by feedback loops and backward causation, created a dynamic network of quantum information, that finally enabled the formation of highly complex macromolecular structures and first life. Parallel innovations in biophysical complexity occurred, expressed in quantum states that can be brought in superposition, after an “intelligent” search and selection process in nature, aiming at a future path. Therefore, both the becoming and future of the Universe can be viewed as an unfolding as well as a continuous measurement and creation of basic information. A collective memory of nature or a universal consciousness is considered as a prerequisite for the origin of life and further evolution of intelligence. Current information theory implies that information can both be described as a physical entity, bearing an entropic element, in which the impact of information is inversely related to the probability that it will occur (Type 1 information), versus the concept that information reflects the certainty of a message and is directly related to its probability and meaning (Type 2 information). This dual aspect of information reflects the perspectives of sender and receiver in the transmission process and resembles wave/particle duality in which (proto)-consciousness can be instrumental in transition of the Type 1 to the Type 2 information aspects. It is shown that basic information is largely hidden from us, due to observation- induced perturbation of this intrinsic information. Information may be transmitted in very different ways and at very different levels. In the living cell this may constitute chemical and electrical signals, but also specific spatial perturbations, for instance, in the 3-dimensional structure of proteins. At the level of human communication, vibration patterns can be expressed in electromagnetic waves in the form of light, sound, music, as well as in images and stories (transmitted by radio, telephone, internet and TV, for example). Such information is transferred to the brain through specifically tailored sensory organs that accommodate complex patterns of wave activity, that subsequently are converted to neural activities in a cyclic workspace of the nervous system. The emergence of human information, knowledge and understanding , in itself, can be seen as a creative force in the physical universe, which can influence the generation of complexity of Nature in all domains. A new information paradigm has been proposed that represents a new integral science of information, on a physical and metaphysical basis: it seems easier to describe matter and energy in terms of information than vice versa. Consequently, information can be used as a common language across scientific disciplines.

INFORMATION AS THE SUBSTANCE OF GRAVITATIONAL AND ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS
Antoine Acke

This article is about the physical nature of the fields that mediate in the gravitational and in the electromagnetic interactions. From Newton's law of universal gravitation we deduce the concept and the definition of "gravitational information" (or "g-information") and from Coulomb's law the concept and the definition of "electric information" (or "e-information"). We identify gravitational information as the substance of gravitational fields and electric information as the substance of electromagnetic fields. And we introduce the idea that the elementary quantity of g-information as well as the elementary quantity of e-information is carried by a granular entity, that we call the "informaton" and define in the "postulate of the emission of informatons". From the hypothesis that information is the substance of gravitational and electromagnetic fields and that the informaton is their constituent element, we deduce that these fields are dual entities always having a field-and an induction-component simultaneously created by their sources: wheter or not moving masses and whether or not moving charges.

Towards an Information Description of Space-Time
Merab Gogberashvili

Foundations of Physics

We attempt to describe geometry in terms of informational quantities for the universe considered as a finite ensemble of correlated quantum particles. As the main dynamical principle, we use the conservation of the sum of all kinds of entropies: thermodynamic, quantum and informational. The fundamental constant of speed is interpreted as the information velocity for the world ensemble and also connected with the gravitational potential of the universe on a particle. The two postulates, which are enough to derive the whole theory of Special Relativity, are re-formulated as the principles of information entropy universality and finiteness of information density.

Do They Compute? Dawn of a New Paradigm based on the Information-theoretic View of Black holes, Universe and Various Conceptual Interconnections of Fundamental Physics
Indrajit Patra

Turkish Journal of Computer and Mathematics Education (TURCOMAT), 2021

The article endeavors to show how thinking about black holes as some form of hyper-efficient, serial computers could help us in thinking about the more fundamental aspects of space-time itself. Black holes as the most exotic and yet simplest forms of gravitational systems also embody quantum fluctuations that could be manipulated to archive hypercomputation, and even if this approach might not be realistic, yet it is important since it has deep connections with various aspects of quantum gravity, the highly desired unification of quantum mechanics and general relativity. The article describes how thinking about black holes as the most efficient kind of computers in the physical universe also paves the way for developing new ideas about such issues as black hole information paradox, the possibility of emulating the properties of curved space-time with the collective quantum behaviors of certain kind of condensate fluids, ideas of holographic spacetime, gravitational thermodynamics an...

Redefined Information Leading to Matter and Energy
Martin Alpert

viXra, 2011

In this paper we define information as any observable difference which exists only at boundaries. We hypothesize, based on this, that matter (particle) is composed of many small interfaces (differences) in space and energy becomes a function of the distribution of differences (distinguishability) and no differences (indistinguishability). Based on this definition of information, superposition in quantum mechanics will be shown to be analogous to statistical thermodynamics. An observable consists of two processes: the observation which is limited by the uncertainty equation, ΔE Δt ≥ h and the entropy change in the observer. When combined, these are shown to result in a modified Heisenberg Uncertainty.

The Information-Processing Universe: A hypothesis of spacetime as a processing manifestation from a hidden information dimension
Weiran Fang

2025

This paper seeks to enhance and strengthen existing theoretical frameworks or potential new theories by proposing an innovative theoretical framework know as Information-Processing Universe hypothesis, which reconceptualizes the universe as intrinsically informational, anchored in a "Hidden Informational Dimension". By positing that the fundamental structure of the universe is underpinned by informational dynamics, I explore how conventional concepts of spacetime should be perceived as a manifestation emerging from informational interactions [1, 2], which intrinsically entails a specific extent of information loss. I also propose a cyclic universe model with alternating energy states, emphasizing energy conservation and complex interactions between information and matter. The framework connects gravitational effects and time dilation to informational dynamics, integrating quantum mechanics with information theory, particularly via Bell's theorem, and opens new avenues for understanding reality's fundamental nature.

The Universal Gravito-Informational Theory: Principles, Limits, and Horizons
sebastian virtosu

2025

The Universal Gravito-Informational Theory (TGIU) proposes a unifying framework where gravity, entropy, and information act as the three fundamental forces of existence. At its core, TGIU describes reality as a continuous collapse from a two-dimensional informational substrate into the three-dimensional material world. This collapse is not chaotic but guided by quantifiable gradients of information (∇Φ) and entropy (∇S), constrained by the Equilibrium Force (TEF), which ensures stability between order and disorder.

The informational physical model and fundamental problems in physics
Sergey Shevchenko

The informational physical model and fundamental problems in physics, 2024

. This article is some review of results that were obtained at 2007-2021 years development of “The Information as Absolute” concept and the informational physical model, which is based on the concept; including a number of fundamental physical problems are briefly considered in framework of the conception and the model. Recently in physics there are several publications, that present lists of the problems. However, those lists are essentially incomplete, for at least two reasons. Firsts of all, a number of phenomena are studied traditionally by philosophy, and so corresponding problems are usually considered to be “metaphysical”. However, they relate also to some concrete physical phenomena. For example, physics evidently studies Matter, and so the metaphysical problems “what is ontology of Matter”, “what is “Space”, “Time” and a few other physical phenomena and notions as well, are really a Meta-physical problems “what does physics study?” There are other fundamental physical problems, which are not considered as such in physics, and are absent in the “fundamental problems lists”. Those include the problems, which really exist, yet are incorporated into standard physical theories, and so are fundamental “implicitly”, which in physics are “solved by default” ‒ and mostly erroneously. Note, though, that a number of “Meta-physical”, and concrete fundamental, problems more in detail are considered in the paper “The Informational Conception and Basic Physics”, https://arxiv.org/abs/0707.4657, v5 (2021), so this paper is, in certain sense, an expanded conclusion of this paper, which includes, correspondingly, more in detail consideration of some more general physical problems; and, besides, in this article, the problem “what are Gravity and Electric Forces” is essentially clarified comparing with the arXiv 2021 paper version above, and additionally initial model of Nuclear Force is presented. Besides, the concrete problem “What is Life”, and the rational cosmological model, where a few vague points in standard cosmology rather probably are rationally clarified, while the fundamental problem “matter – antimatter asymmetry” in Matter is solved with rather large probability, are considered, and one of recently published rather complete “lists of fundamental problems” is commented in Appendix.

Instead of introducing extra dimensions, speculative particles, or untested constructs, the model strictly adheres to established physical principles, reformulated in terms of informational dynamics. Within this view, energy, spacetime curvature, and fundamental interactions are not primary but emerge from the density, flow, and coherence of information across the physical substrate. Gravity is understood as an inevitable geometric manifestation of informational imbalance, while gauge interactions are interpreted as conservation laws governing the flux of information. Matter fields appear as localized excitations of information, with inertial and mass properties arising from resistance to informational change. The framework is built around a universal Lagrangian principle expressed entirely in informational terms, ensuring covariance and consistency across all known interactions. Conservation of information plays a role analogous to energy-momentum conservation, while informational coupling naturally links the quantum and relativistic domains. The approach provides a rigorous yet minimal formulation, avoiding metaphors and unnecessary structures while preserving compatibility with the predictive success of established theories. By recasting the foundations of physics in informational language, the work establishes a pathway toward a coherent Theory of Everything, capable of unifying matter, forces, and spacetime without departure from proven physical laws. This perspective highlights information not as an abstract concept but as the most basic measurable quantity from which the fabric of reality arises.

The informational physical model: some fundamental problems in physics
Sergey Shevchenko

https://vixra.org/abs/2007.0001, 2020

In this article a number of fundamental physical problems are briefly considered in framework of “The Information as Absolute” concept and the informational physical model, which is based on the concept, which were developed in 2007-2020. There are several publications, that present lists of the problems. However those lists are essentially incomplete, for at least two reasons. Firsts of all, a number of phenomena are studied traditionally by philosophy, and so corresponding problems are usualy considered to be “metaphysical”. However, they relate also to some concrete physical phenomena. For example physics evidently studies Matter, and so the metaphysical problems “what is ontology of Matter”, “what is “Space”, “Time” and a few other physical phenomena and notions as well, are really a Meta-physical problem “what does physics study?”. There are other fundamental physical problems, which are not considered as such in physics, and are absent in the “fundamental problems lists”. Those include the problems, which really exist, yet are incorporated into standard physical theories, and so are fundamental “implicitly”, when in physics be “solved by default”. Thus, the fundamental physical problems are considered in this paper in corresponding sections: “Meta-physical”, ““Ordinary implicit” fundamental”, and “Other “ordinary” fundamental” problems, i.e. those considered as fundamental in standard physics. We also review in this paper a few cosmological problems and the problem “what is Life?”. The file contains two versions: English, pages 1-32, and Russian, pages 33-66

The informational physics indeed can help to understand Nature?

The informational physics indeed can help to understand Nature?, 2010

In our previous articles (“The Information and the Matter”, v1, v5; more systematically the informational conception is presented in arXiv paper “The Information as Absolute”, 2010) it was rigorously shown that the Matter is some informational system (structure), which is an [practically] infinitesimal sub-sets of the utmost infinite and fundamental Set “Information”. Here some physical consequences from this conception are considered. Key words: Universe, Matter, information, gravity, electric force, special relativity, quantum mechanics, et

The Information Universe. On Guiding Principles in the Fabric of Reality. Publications on Philosophy of Science Titles and Abstracts of recent publications
Dirk K F Meijer

There are many good reasons to ask basic questions on the construction of reality. These questions not only concern the structure of the world we live in and how we perceive it, but also the mysteries of how our Universe was born and how it will evolve in the far future. This article aims to highlight the prominent role of information in the manifestations of matter and discusses current materialistic paradigms, versus the concept that not matter but information is primary in the evolution of our Universe. Reconciliation of these opposing views is sought in hypothesizing that matter in its various modalities intrinsically contains proto-mental (informational) aspects and/or that matter and mind are complementary aspects of a total reality. Information is treated as a multi-layered phenomenon and is differentiated in intrinsic (elementary), observed (scientific), cultural (in the sense of meaning) and nouminous (mostly non-conscious) information. Reality is pictured as a four-dimensional domain (block universe), in which all time (past, present and future) is laid-out, along with space, housing a flow of information. It is postulated that basic information for creation of the Universe was provided, either through backward causation from the far future, or has originated from a preceding version of our Universe. Individual consciousness is considered as an expression of an underlying non-local quantum field, which exhibits holographic properties. It is postulated that the human brain is interfacing this universal information field, to our individual consciousness. This universal information domain is physically identified as the zero-point-energy field, also related to a time-reversed flow of
