Do They Compute? Dawn of a New Paradigm based on the Information-theoretic View of Black holes, Universe and Various Conceptual Interconnections of Fundamental Physics
Main Article Content
Abstract
The article endeavors to show how thinking about black holes as some form of hyper-efficient, serial computers could help us in thinking about the more fundamental aspects of space-time itself. Black holes as the most exotic and yet simplest forms of gravitational systems also embody quantum fluctuations that could be manipulated to archive hypercomputation, and even if this approach might not be realistic, yet it is important since it has deep connections with various aspects of quantum gravity, the highly desired unification of quantum mechanics and general relativity. The article describes how thinking about black holes as the most efficient kind of computers in the physical universe also paves the way for developing new ideas about such issues as black hole information paradox, the possibility of emulating the properties of curved space-time with the collective quantum behaviors of certain kind of condensate fluids, ideas of holographic spacetime, gravitational thermodynamics and entropic gravity, the role of quantum entanglements and non-locality in the construction of spacetime, spacetime geometry and the nature of gravitation and dark energy and dark matter, etc. to name a few.
