Quantum Gates from Wolfram Model Multiway Rewriting Systems

Furkan Semih Dündar, Xerxes D. Arsiwalla, Hatem Elshatlawy

We show how representations of finite-dimensional quantum operators can be constructed using nondeterministic rewriting systems. In particular, we investigate Wolfram model multiwa…

Towards a Generalized Theory of Observers

Hatem Elshatlawy, Dean Rickles, Xerxes D. Arsiwalla

We propose a formal framework for understanding and unifying the concept of observers across physics, computer science, philosophy, and related fields. Building on cybernetic feedb…

Pregeometry, Formal Language and Constructivist Foundations of Physics

Xerxes D. Arsiwalla, Hatem Elshatlawy, Dean Rickles

How does one formalize the structure of structures necessary for the foundations of physics? This work is an attempt at conceptualizing the metaphysics of pregeometric structures,…

Ruliology: Linking Computation, Observers and Physical Law

Dean Rickles, Hatem Elshatlawy, Xerxes D. Arsiwalla

Stephen Wolfram has recently outlined an unorthodox, multicomputational approach to fundamental theory, encompassing not only physics but also mathematics in a structure he calls T…

Homotopies in Multiway (Non-Deterministic) Rewriting Systems as -Fold Categories

Xerxes D. Arsiwalla, Jonathan Gorard, Hatem Elshatlawy

We investigate algebraic and compositional properties of abstract multiway rewriting systems, which are archetypical structures underlying the formalism of the Wolfram model. We de…
