A Model of the Universe

Abstract: This book presents a philosophical theory of the nature of the universe based on a new model of its space-time structure. The book shows how his model illuminates a broad range of subjects, including causation, probability, quantum mechanics, identity, and free will, and argues that the fact that the model throws light on such a large number of problems constitutes strong evidence that the universe is as the model portrays it.

“…On psychological point of view, any systems can be broadly classified into two categories, living being and non-living being [21,22]. For a system like ant, a meter is a long distance in space and a day is a long time to live.…”

“…At the present state of the Universe, the physical time is unidirectional [6,7], the reason we cannot get back into old unique identities that we already left in earlier time instants [8,9]. So, unique identities are mere one way traffic for us [10,11], once left, it is left for ever [12], at least within the psychologically limited point of view [13,14]. But certainly we are not esoteric as predicted in the Quantum Mechanics [15,16] because we are not in the several places at once and we are not moving from one place to another place by exploring the entire Universe simultaneously which disprove the theory of simultaneity at the macroscopic scale of structure of the Universe.…”

“…But certainly we are not esoteric as predicted in the Quantum Mechanics [15,16] because we are not in the several places at once and we are not moving from one place to another place by exploring the entire Universe simultaneously which disprove the theory of simultaneity at the macroscopic scale of structure of the Universe. Because we are made of trillion particles [17,18], as basic building blocks of us [19], the particles can never be esoteric either. More precisely, a particle can have a single and unique address or identity at a given particular time instant.…”

“…For example -a circle is a set of points equidistant from a single point [9,10] and a parabola is a set of points equidistant from a point and a line [11,12]. Amazingly, the path of the all falling objects on the Earth is always a parabola [13,14]; the particle, whether thrown or dropped, falls with a constant acceleration [15,16] although parabola came in mathematics way before that the observation of real particle falling on Earth [ 17,18]. Falling is Universal [19] and a timeless truthso is the kind of curve that falling bodies trace [20,21].…”
