Spacetime and Matter - a duality of partial orders
arXiv:1001.3964
Abstract
A new kind of duality between the deep structures of spacetime and matter is proposed here, considering two partial orders which incorporate causality, extensity, and discreteness. This may have surprising consequences for the emergence of quantum mechanics, which are discussed.
