A Simple, Generalized Relational Model and Consequent Implications andConjectures

A naive, novel relational model has been constructed in an attempt to examine generalized interactions

with the minimum of assumptions. The model shows elements fundamental to quantum

field theory and the enigma of the apparent observer that has dogged interpretations of quantum

theory for the last century, though this was not its original intent. The lengthy evolution of the

model will be briefly touched upon, along with some computational results and the mathematical

and philosophical background behind the model.

Arising from the model are several surprising outcomes and conjectures. Among these are a

global gauge and entropy in a Schwarzschild metric with Plank-like scaling arising from a set of

microstates predicted by the model, and circulant eigenstates that play the role of basis vectors for

a 3 + "i"world, suggesting that both quantum and relativistic space-times are emergent companion

phenomena. The work may be insightful by providing a novel perspective to understanding physics,

with possible implications to the origin of inflation.
