Reading 'The Shape of Inner Space'; Annotations on the Cosmology Theme

It is possible to wonder how string theory and extra-dimensions relate to the problems of quantum mechanics. Quantum uncertainty, quantum entanglement and the unpredictability features of the standard model of physics descriptive of the behavior of quantum particles are apparently indeterministic so it is reasonable to wonder how the conservation of energy and information apply to an indeterministic rather than a deterministic world. If quantum particles exist in all possible states before measurement in a waveform collapse into a partially observed position in normal four dimensional space-time what is there to be conserved? What conservation of possible states that do not become are conserved and where?

The physicist Hugh Everett’s cosmological conjecture about an issuance of all possible universes from each quantum effect is one obvious state to consider, for if a new state of a universes promulgated from each quantum possibility no information prima facie seems lost. One might expect that for each qubit of data producing a new universe and infinite number of additional universes ought to be issued producing every other possible altered state as well, obviously. Another infinity of universes should be issued from each of those to conserve their information as well.

These speculations may be somewhat of the basic topic of making more annotations during my reading of Yau and Nadis’ excellent book of mathematical physics of string theory titled ‘The Shape of Inner Space’.

The decoherence of quantum states generally from the more primary quantum world of uncertainty-maybe that can be regarded as the noumenal world described by Immanuel Kant-into this universe of mass and energy considered to be the subject of study of solid state physics is an ephemeral concept useful to consider.

Is the regard for an ephemeral universe of mass and energy of solid state physical as a phenomena essential correct from a human point of view or is the concept just wrong?

Physicists such as Oogan, Strominger, Vafa, Maldecena and Witten have extended string theory geometrical constructions of membranes, D-Branes, and complex structures of membranes called cycles so far as to model black holes within a string theory paradigm. Even Stephen Hawking eventually took the opinion that information is conserved by black holes.

That permits more non-mathematical speculation…Beyond the event horizon of a black hole not only ought mass be compacted worse than in a power-dumpster, it should be in the most disordered state possible without any resemblance to whatever shape it was in before falling into the black hole and the timelessness beyond the event horizon. Practically the state of strings (the smallest and one-dimensional theoretical state of mass-energy) inside the black hole is hard to understand. If maximum entropy has occurred perhaps the strings should have no sort of polarity in regard to each other. Compacted intensely as strings they ought to form something at least such as a very heavy ball of strings.

Yet it is possible that strings never get beyond the event horizon and strings just stick to it like one-dimensional flies caught in extra dimensions. The models of black holes built with string theory have extra-dimensions lurking at the event horizon to catch quantum material passing within-a more logical concept simpler to consider than the black hole paradigm of classical quantum mechanics.

One wonders of the relationship of quantum uncertainty to black holes? Temporal appearances of mass and energy in the universe might be caught in a scaffolding of extra-dimensions (small ones) from which they are unable to return to an underlying realm of quantum uncertainty or not, The acceleration of space could be a function of small extra dimensions flexing for some reason in normal four dimensional space or traveling like clothing pinned to a clothesline. The conservation of energy can mean simply that as the mass energy of space-time changes it becomes part of another existing structure-as when a tree slaughtered in a virgin forest is made into chips and pressboard and made into a sheet to build a restroom in a gasoline station. If information is conserved in the quantum world then structures such as black holes may have more obviously logical explanations within string theory or another potential geometrically constructible model.
