From Space and Time to a Deeper Reality as a Possible Way to Solve Global Problems

Abstract

To deal with global problems we suggest to consider complex systems not in space and time, but in a possible deeper reality, i.e., the hierarchical network of prime integer relations. Encoded by arithmetic through the self-organization processes the hierarchical network appears as the mathematical structure of one harmonious and interconnected whole. Remarkably, the holistic nature of the hierarchical network allows to formulate a single universal objective of a complex system defined in terms of the integration principle. We propose that by the realization of the integration principle the Earth system could be transformed to become an integrated part of a larger system with more capacity and energy to sustain life. Significantly, based on integers and controlled by arithmetic only the hierarchical network has a unique potential to provide an irreducible common ground fully trusted by different parties and helping to reveal a higher collective purpose.
