So, I’ve been thinking about how we, as humans, manage our internal world of thoughts and feelings alongside the external world that validates and mirrors us. In this tension, I’ve come to see that our personal system of self-governance is an play between internal reflection (self-validation) and external validation (the reflection we receive from others). This balance, though often elusive, is vital to understanding who we are and how we navigate our lives. The Duality of Reflection I’ve realized that internal reflection and external validation are two sides of the same coin. Internal reflection is that introspective process where I evaluate my thoughts, emotions, and experiences. It’s the quiet dialogue I have with myself, an ongoing internal audit of who I am and what I value. But, on the other side, there’s external validation—the feedback, acknowledgment, and recognition I receive from others. This external reflection is essential because it not only reinforces my self-image but a...

CPT Symmetry in the Temporal Flow Model In conventional quantum field theory, CPT symmetry—that is, invariance under Charge conjugation (C), Parity inversion (P), and Time reversal (T)—is a fundamental property. It follows from the principles of locality, unitarity, and Lorentz invariance. In my temporal flow model, however, space and time are not pre-existing backgrounds but emerge from the dynamics of fundamental flows. Within this framework, CPT symmetry isn’t imposed by fiat; it naturally arises from the relational properties and symmetric structure of the flow interactions. Let me walk you through the idea in mathematical detail. 1. Fundamental Flow Dynamics Recap In my model, the basic building blocks are flows, which I denote by φ (or sometimes f). These flows are dimensionless and interact through what I call a flow accumulation operator. The dynamics of these flows are governed by an evolution equation like:   φ(T + ΔT) = φ(T) + ΔT · L(φ, ∇φ) Here, L(φ, ∇φ) is an operator that...

 Particles as Emergent Flow Configurations In the temporal flow picture, the most basic entities are flows—denoted by φ (or sometimes f). These flows aren’t point-like particles but rather abstract, dimensionless quantities. Particles emerge as stable configurations of these flows. In our model, the “identity” of a particle comes not from being an indivisible point but from a specific, stable pattern in the way flows interact and accumulate. Let’s break down the math behind this idea. 1. Flow Accumulation and Particle Formation We start by defining an operator A(φᵢ, φⱼ) that quantifies how interactions between flows accumulate. In a discrete picture, it looks like this:   A(φᵢ, φⱼ) = Σₖ wₖ (φᵢ, φₖ)(φₖ, φⱼ) Here, the weights wₖ are normalized (Σₖ wₖ = 1) so that they ensure the interactions are simply redistributed, not created or destroyed. When the accumulation of flows in a localized region exceeds some threshold, a stable configuration forms—that’s what we identify as a particle...

 Maxwell Equations as Emergent Flow Dynamics Conceptual Overview: In conventional electromagnetism, the Maxwell equations describe how electric and magnetic fields interact and propagate, with the fields being continuous functions over space and time. In the temporal flow model, what we traditionally call “fields” (such as the electromagnetic field) arise from the patterns of flow accumulation and redistribution. Instead of starting with separate electric and magnetic field vectors, the basic ingredients are the interactions among flows. These flows, when organized appropriately, yield effective quantities that behave like E E (electric) and B B (magnetic) fields. Mathematical Sketch: Flow Accumulation as Field Generation: Suppose the flow accumulation operator, A ( ϕ i , ϕ j ) A(\phi_i, \phi_j) , quantifies the interaction strength between flow elements. One can define emergent “field” quantities from gradients and divergences of the accumulation function. For example, an effec...

Lorentz Transformations as an Emergent Property of Flow Interactions In traditional physics, Lorentz transformations are introduced as fundamental rules governing space and time. They ensure that the speed of light remains constant in all inertial frames and form the backbone of special relativity. However, in our temporal physics model, Lorentz transformations are not imposed externally—they emerge naturally from the way flows interact and reorganize. The emergence of Lorentz transformations is fundamentally natural in this flow-based model, without requiring explicit couplings. 1. Space and Time as Emergent Properties In conventional physics, space and time are treated as a pre-existing backdrop, with coordinates assigned to every event. However, in our model, both space and time emerge from the interactions of primitive flows. Emergent Coordinates : Instead of predefined spatial coordinates, we define a system where spatial directions arise from flow interactions. For a given flow s...

Power-Law Scaling in Fundamental Processes In this work, I explore how power-law scaling naturally emerges from the interactions of fundamental processes, specifically in the context of how time and physical systems are interrelated. I introduce a process formalism, emphasizing relational flow dynamics over traditional notions of state and time. This approach reveals that power-law scaling governs the behavior of these processes. 1. Process Formalism To understand the evolution of systems, we define the process tensor , which describes the relationship between two flows: P μ ν = ∂ μ ϕ ν − ∂ ν ϕ μ P_{\mu\nu} = \partial_\mu \phi_\nu - \partial_\nu \phi_\mu ​ Here, ϕ ν \phi_\nu  represents the process field . This tensor captures the interaction between processes, which are not static but evolve relative to each other. This allows us to move beyond the idea of states and focus on dynamic interactions. 2. Conservation Law and Evolution The fundamental conservation of the system is capt...

Temporal Flow Evolution: Formulating the Equation of Change In this post, I'm considering an equation that models how flows evolve over time. This equation is given by: ∂ f ∂ T = L ( f , ∇ f , ∂ f ∂ T ) \frac{\partial f}{\partial T} = L(f, \nabla f, \frac{\partial f}{\partial T}) This equation describes how the flow values f f  change over what we can refer to as temporal progression. It incorporates: f f : the flow values representing the state of the system at any time. ∇ f \nabla f : the spatial gradient of flow, which describes how the flow varies across space. ∂ f ∂ T \frac{\partial f}{\partial T} ​ : the rate of change of flow over time. Now, this equation contains the term ∂ f ∂ T \frac{\partial f}{\partial T} ​ on both sides, leading to a potentially recursive structure. To simplify this, we refine it as: ∂ f ∂ T = L ( f , ∇ f ) \frac{\partial f}{\partial T} = L(f, \nabla f) Here, L L  is an operator that governs the dynamics of flow evolution, capturing the essential...
