FRACTAL ECONOMICS

 Curse of dyslexia; re-edit of my papers Can I share with you my personal story, one that culminated with the re-edit of my very special papers on the fractal, quantum, and cosmology?  These days, as I am writing my book, I am making use of a kind of artificial intelligence, in the form of an assistant editor, Grammarly. It's just a breakthrough for me; all my life, I've been cursed with dyslexia. I only learnt that word when I became a teacher. Yes, I'm a teacher, and I know how to read and write, but I have serious issues with it and have had problems in the past. With Grammarly, I have been editing my old work and even this blog. And it's been a great feeling doing this. However, last week I did something that threw me into a pit of humiliation: I looked over the papers I submitted to the International Journal of Quantum Foundations and found them riddled with grammatical errors. What to do? To cut a long story short, I wrote to the editor and said to him that they a...

 The Multiverse must be true.  Last night, while listening to an audiobook on physics and the topic of the Multiverse, I realized that the Multiverse may well be true. Up until this point, I had thought it was just absolute nonsense, a little bit woo-woo, something that is not useful, and, like they all say, out of the reach of the scientific method. But then it had me thinking, and very quickly, I came to the conclusion that why not? My thinking at the time went something like this: what if I were so isolated that all there was was me, what would I be thinking about my origins? I would have no information to know that my story is the story we know now, the human story, the life story, the story of life on Earth. So are we in that room when it comes to the universe, the Big Bang universe? Already, the universe is far older than I led to believe it is, and what if it is just a node, a branch on this? I pause to say it is an infinite tree. I'll stop there because it is a little...

  My call to John Clauser. The following is not a call for empathy. I’m not doing it to win any points; I’m doing it just to share a story that I think is (personally) quite remarkable. It’s part of my story.  I called one of the greatest scientists of our time, Dr John Clauser , wanting to discuss the paper that I submitted and had published in the International Journal of Quantum Foundation on the topic he won his Nobel Prize in, quantum entanglement. It ended up that he hung up on me. I was shattered, but what did I expect? Well, I expected a little curiosity, a bit of time, maybe a "I’ll give it a look, and I’ll get back to you," but no, this was not to be. It was very harsh and not very constructive at all. On his side, he must get a lot of this, and I understand that. Even I do, and I am not supportive of people all the time. I had written a letter to Dr Clauser and sent it to him, covering two topics I had been involved in and wanted to share with him. The first w...

I am writing a letter to the Nobel Laureate, John Clauser, explaining to him what I have published on fractal and quantum mechanics. For the first time, I may have written a totally new quantum interpretation. I had never thought of that before.  My fractal interpretation  of quantum mechanics covers all the other interpretations and more — it links quantum mechanics to cosmology. They are inextricably linked. I have not heard a word back from anyone.  My papers: International Journal of Quantum Foundations, Speculations.

  Addressing ‘The Measurement Problem’ by Fractal Landscape s and Reference Points In my paper, The Fractal Corresponds with Light and Foundational Quantum Problems , I discuss the measurement problem in quantum physics as a problem of the fractal. The issue arises when matter or points of matter are believed to exist in multiple locations simultaneously in the quantum micro world, but this changes when they are observed. This is a significant challenge in quantum physics and one of several topics of the quantum that I address with the fractal. --- The isolated iterating scale-invariant fractal is a prime example of the "measurement problem" in quantum mechanics. Without a reference, it is impossible to determine the position and scale of the bit sizes on the superposition fractal. However, once a reference is made, the position and scale become clear. This issue is directly related to the "observation" and "measurement problem" of quantum mechanics and ...

 Hello everyone.  I have been away from my blog for the last year, waiting for the decision on my submission to the International Journal of Quantum Foundations.  I can now announce my work has been published in the journal Speculations Supplement.  I am happy; it took a lot of work and thought.  I have had no reply to date.  We'll see.  You can read it at the following.    The Fractal Corresponds with Light and Foundational Quantum Problems Also, see my second paper: Experiment on Inverted Fractal Corresponds with Cosmological Observations and Conjectures Abstract:  After nearly one hundred years after its origins, foundational quantum mechanics remains one of the greatest unexplained mysteries in physicists today. Within this time, chaos theory and its geometry— the fractal—has developed.  In this paper, the propagation behaviour of a simple iterating fractal—the Koch Snowflake—was described, analysed and discussed. From an arbi...

For over ten years, I have been developing a theory of quantum mechanics through the lens of fractals. I have found that the fractal demonstrates all aspects of quantum. My problem has been getting this down on paper and publishing it. Over 6 months, from late 2020 to early 2021, I worked on the following paper with my supervisor, but in the end, I threw it down, not at all happy with what I had achieved. I need to approach it differently: rather than treating it as an experiment, describe the fractal from a deductive point of view. I intend to do this when things have settled, and I have had a break from it all, but this is what I have achieved so far.  Keep in touch. I will let you know when I get started again.  Abstract The field of foundational quantum mechanics originated nearly one hundred years ago, yet it remains one of the greatest mysteries to physicists today. The experiment in this study tests whether the geometry of fractals, according to a simple isolated iterat...

Update October 2021:  http://www.fractalnomics.com/2021/10/fractal-corresponds-with-quantum-foundation-problems.html Finally, after 12 years of working, last night I posted my quantum fractal paper; in it, I address the big questions of physics with a simple, modern, and well-known geometry, the fractal. I feel a little nervous; it appears no one has ever done this. If I can get some (financial/grant) support on it, I'll take it to publication, rewrite it, and adapt it to suit it, which is all too much for me here and now on my own. Besides, I want to work with the atmosphere stuff, where I use real quantum mechanics to reveal how the infrared atmosphere really works; way more exciting. There is still work to be done with the fractal: a theory of knowledge from it.  Update May 2021: for the last 6 months, I have been rewriting my paper with help, and I am hoping to publish my findings.  http://www.fractalnomics.com/2021/10/fractal-corresponds-with-quantum-foundation-pro...

The Koch Snowflake Spiral 2024: last year, I published, using the following, an interpretation of Quantum Mechanics. https://www.fractalnomics.com/2023/05/fractal%20foundational%20quantum%20theory%20published%20.html International Journal of Quantum Foundations, Speculations. The Fractal Corresponds with Light and Foundational Quantum Problems   Experiment on Inverted Fractal Corresponds with Cosmological Observations and Conjectures On route to understanding if  fractals have a 'wavy' like nature , I finally put pencil to paper and drew what I'd been thinking. I have been pondering what effect a 'mutation' or change to one triangle - a dot at the apex of the triangle as shown below - would have or show on the  iterating  Koch Snowflake. I envisaged that it would spiral to infinity, as shown below. By tracing a smooth curve through the (red) 'dots' series of iterated mutant triangles, I would develop - what looks like - a kind of logarith...

  I have since published in 2023:  Update: After some 8 years I have finally completed writing up my fractal discoveries.  https://www.researchgate.net/publication/343999170_Making_Sense_of_Light_and_the_Quantum_by_an_Experiment_on_an_Isolated_Emergent_Fractal https://www.academia.edu/43989373/Making_Sense_of_Light_and_the_Quantum_by_an_Experiment_on_an_Isolated_Emergent_Fractal https://vixra.org/abs/2008.0228 This entry introduces a series of entries on the fractal – and ‘quantum’. fractal-superposition fractal-entanglement fractal-wave-particle-duality fractal-uncertainty Late last year, I – briefly – published an entry on the subject of ceteris paribus and the fractal . As an entry, it completed a set of (fractal) explanations for – what I think to be – the three main assumptions of economics: rationality and perfect information. The other was an entry I had been developing since the beginning of this blog. I always knew it was a deep and special one. For...

  I have since published in 2023:  Update: I have published on this blog, read here. I have been having a difficult time recently and am unsure what to do.  What do you suggest? I have taken down my many entries on the fractal because I am afraid they will not stand as an official claim to knowledge. Do I publish here on my own, using the low-cost web technology, or go through the usual costly, slow peer review process? My discoveries with the fractal have led me to - what I believe - a straightforward theory of Quantum Mechanics, or what might be called ' a theory of everything'. When I listen to the 'experts' on quantum mechanics, it is as if they are speaking about the same things I have discovered—but not yet published—in the fractal—everything!: duality, uncertainty, entanglement, time, and relativity. What am I to do? A 'highly' academic colleague has advised me to write articles, publish them, and shut down my blog. On the other hand, yesterda...
