Reality: How can we know reality exists?

Thomas Lewton

The key observation about the quantum reality is that it looks as if there is a moment when a probability of a quantum event or events becomes reality for us.However, after careful analysis it looks plausible that what we believe is a definite state in our reality, observed as an outcome of a quantum experiment or experiments, is actually not a definite state.From there, we conclude that quantum world is an active world whose influence lies beyond statistical and permanent determination of reality as we know it.

This chapter focuses on the concept of reality in Adonis’ poetry and the theoretical physics developed by Basarab Nicolescu. Do they conceive reality in the same way? In this brief comparison, I seek to show that, despite different languages, poetry and quantum physics tend towards the same realism, namely the deep conviction of a veiled Real manifesting itself under numerous faces. These two activities that aim to know and reflect reality are based on how we live our relationships with all forms and at all scales of life. Consequently, they depend on both the object as an absolute entity and the subject who lives it, that is, on the subject-object connection. Beyond this famous relativism which is not the only criterion for the quantum and poetic conception of reality, the main debate, which will be mine in this article, concerns the absolute existence of the objective reality and therefore the way to access and describe it.

A natural behavior is used to characterize by differential equation established on hu- \nman observations, which is assumed to be on one particle or on \ne field complied with \nreproducibility. However, the multilateral property of a particle \nP \nand the mathematical \nconsistence determine that such an understanding is only local, not the whole reality \non \nP \n, which leads to a central thesis for knowing the nature, i.e. \nhow to establish a \nphysical equation with a proper interpretation on a thing \n. As it is well-known, a thing \nconsists of parts. Reviewing on observations, we classify them into two categories, i.e. \nout-observation \nand \nin-observation \nfor discussion. The former is such an observation \nthat the observer is out of the particle or the field \nP \n, which is in fact a macroscopic \nobservation and its dynamic equation characterizes the coherent behavior of all parts in \nP \n, but the later is asked into the particle or the field by arranging observers simultane- \nously on different subparticles or subfields in \nP \nand respectively establishing physical \nequations, which are contradictory and given up in classical because there are not ap- \nplicable conclusions on contradictory systems in mathematics. However, the existence \nnaturally implies the necessity of the nature. Applying a combinatorial notion, i.e. \nG \nL \n- \nsolutions on non-solvable equations, a new notion for holding on the reality of nature \nis suggested in this paper, which makes it clear that the knowing on the nature by solv- \nable equations is macro, only holding on these coherent behaviors of particles, but the \nnon-coherent naturally induces non-solvable equations, which implies that the knowing \nby \nG \nL \n-solution of equations is the effective, includes the classical characterizing as a \nspecial case by solvable equations, i.e. mathematical combinatorics.
