Abstract

A central open problem at the intersection of quantum information theory, quantum thermodynamics, and many-body physics is determining the exact mathematical conditions under which the information-geometric distance d_g(ρ, σ) between two quantum states coincides with the minimum physical resource and thermodynamic cost 𝒱(ρ → σ) required to transform one into the other. In this paper, we establish the Extended Quantum Information Geometry System (EQIGS), a unified deductive framework synthesizing Petz monotone Riemannian metrics, quantum resource theories, finite-time thermodynamic length bounds, and tensor-network submanifold geometry, anchored directly in our 71-page ZFC Master Reference Monograph (Lee, 2026, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.23486681) [1]. All foundational spaces and universal constants 𝔘 = (𝒯_0x8A2C, C_UPTC, η_friction, ε_SHID) follow Proposition 1.5, Theorem 2.9, Lemma 4.5, Lemma 4.6, Lemma 5.2, Lemma 6.3, Lemma 8.4, Lemma 8.6, Theorem 8.7, and Theorem 9.5 of [1]. Regularizing the quantum state space 𝒮(ℬ) on the Takesaki Type II_1 ground factor (𝓜_ground, τ_ground) and the Fractional Sobolev–Colombeau Quotient Algebra 𝓖^α(𝒮), we formulate six core axioms (EQIGS-1 through EQIGS-6) and prove six fundamental theorems: (1) Complete Chentsov–Petz Monotone Metric Classification regularized at pure-state boundaries via ε(α) = exp(-1/(1-α)); (2) Exact Necessary and Sufficient Conditions for Information Distance–Physical Cost Equivalence and Tight Finite-Time Control Bounds governed by Planck-BCH arithmetic friction η_friction ≥ 10^-22; (3) Quantum Cauchy–Schwarz Thermodynamic Length Lower Bounds (Σ_na ≥ ℓ_g^2 / (2τ)); (4) Multipartite Entanglement Witnessing via Quantum Fisher Information Curvature Thresholds (ℱ_Q(ρ, H) > 4(Δh)^2 N); (5) Natural Choi–Bures Information Metrics on the Quantum Channel Space Chan(ℬ) and Isometric Reversibility; and (6) Exact Curvature–Volume Formulas for Bond-Dimension-D Tensor Network Manifolds and Area-to-Volume Law Phase Transitions at C_UPTC. Complete Python numerical verification is provided in Appendix A.

Standard quantum mechanics separates unitary time evolution from non-unitary measurement collapse, creating a severe foundational bottleneck when applied to closed cosmological systems where no external classical observer exists to collapse primordial quantum fluctuations.

Information Geometry Unification Principle: Axioms, Detailed Derivations, and Unified Field Equations

Y. Li

We present a complete, mathematically rigorous formulation of the Information Geometry Unification Principle (IGUP). Starting from three fundamental axioms establishing quantum information as the primary ontological substrate, we construct the Bures–Fisher–Rao metric on the manifold of density matrices, derive covariant derivatives, curvature tensors, and the universal information action. We perform full variational derivations for both the quantum state $\rho$ and the information metric $g_{\mu\nu}$ , obtaining closed-form unified field equations that govern quantum dynamics, thermodynamics, and gravitational geometry. We show explicitly how the Schrödinger, Liouville, Boltzmann, and Einstein equations arise as limiting cases. This paper constitutes the foundational core of a complete theory of physics based on the identification of geometry with information.We present a complete, mathematically rigorous formulation of the Information Geometry Unification Principle (IGUP).

Information Geometry Unification Principle: Extended Version with Complete Derivations

Y. Li

This work presents an extended, mathematically complete formulation of the Information Geometry Unification Principle (IGUP), a foundational framework in which quantum mechanics, statistical thermodynamics, general relativity, and spacetime geometry emerge from a single information-theoretic ontology. We begin with rigorous axioms defining information as the primary physical substance, then systematically construct the Bures–Fisher–Rao metric on the manifold of quantum density matrices. We derive the universal information action functional and perform full variational derivations to obtain the unified field equations. We show explicitly how standard physical theories including the Schrödinger equation, Heisenberg picture, Liouville mechanics, classical thermodynamics, and Einstein field equations are recovered in appropriate limiting regimes. We further derive geometric expressions for entanglement, entropy, temperature, energy, and force. The theory resolves longstanding conceptual tensions between unitary quantum evolution and gravitational irreversibility, provides a natural resolution to the black hole information paradox, and yields eight concrete, experimentally testable predictions. This extended version includes full tensor calculus, covariant derivatives, curvature expansions, and limit theorems, amounting to a self-contained theory of everything based on $\text{Geometry} = \text{Information}$ .This work presents an extended, mathematically complete formulation of the Information Geometry Unification Principle (IGUP), a foundational framework in which quantum mechanics, statistical thermodynamics, general relativity, and spacetime geometry emerge from a single information-theoretic ontology.

The Algorithmic Reality Model: Unifying Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity via the Zeno Threshold and Thermodynamic Graph Routing

Serdar Hanzala Yaman

Abstract For over a century, theoretical physics has treated General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics as fundamentally incompatible: one posits a continuous, deterministic spacetime manifold; the other, a discrete, probabilistic Hilbert space. The Algorithmic Reality Model (ARM) resolves this schism by identifying a single computational mechanism—the Zeno Threshold (Zα)—as the universal bound governing both quantum collapse and spacetime geometry. ARM treats physical reality as the macroscopic projection of a finite-bandwidth computational substrate operating on a timeless, pre-geometric state (the Singleton). By enforcing Landauer's principle of irreversible erasure, ARM derives the entirety of the gravitational sector from seven pre-geometric, quantum informational axioms. Key Derivations & Unifications Emergent Spacetime: Spatial geometry emerges from the Quantum Fisher Information Metric (QFIM) of the observer's state space, while time emerges from the Tomita-Takesaki modular flow. The Lorentzian signature (-,+,+,+) is algebraically forced by the compact/non-compact structure of their isometry generators. The Holographic Scalar (The 3→1 Unification): Applying the Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem to the holographic boundary yields the exact Bekenstein-Hawking factor of 1/4 as a universal 2D anti-aliasing limit. This simultaneously fixes the area-law coefficient and structurally derives Newton's constant as G = c3ξmin2 / ℏ. Systematic Boundary Deviations: The framework quantitatively resolves macroscopic anomalies as computational resolution limits. Dark energy emerges as the minimum Landauer maintenance cost of the cosmological event horizon, and the MOND acceleration scale (a0) emerges as a thermodynamic noise floor, algebraically locked by the structural identity a02 = (8πG/3)ρΛ. Thermodynamic State Truncation: Wavefunction collapse, the black hole information paradox, and EPR non-locality are rigorously unified as manifestations of the computational substrate's finite Landauer memory budget. Computational Computability Because ARM is built on discrete informational axioms rather than continuous manifolds, the entire framework is natively computable. The structural derivations in this paper—including emergent geodesic lensing, the Bekenstein-Hawking threshold, and the MOND noise floor—have been explicitly verified via sparse Hermitian lattice simulations. The complete open-source computational validation suite is available at: github.com/srdrymn/algorithmic-reality-model-validations This manuscript represents the master synthesis and culmination of the Algorithmic Theory of Reality (ATR) foundational framework.Abstract For over a century, theoretical physics has treated General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics as fundamentally incompatible: one posits a continuous, deterministic spacetime manifold; the other, a discrete, probabilistic Hilbert space.

Information Recovery, Coherence Maintenance, and the Quantum-Classical Boundary: A Comprehensive 36-Paper Research Program

Lluis Eriksson

This comprehensive volume consolidates a 36-paper research program developed between December 2025 and January 2026. It establishes a rigorous mathematical and operational framework bridging Algebraic Quantum Field Theory (AQFT), quantum information theory, and open-system dynamics. The program is structured across several interconnected theoretical tracks: • AQFT and Recoverability: Establishes a quantitative clustering-recovery bridge, proving that exponential clustering of vacuum correlations enables approximate quantum state recovery via the Petz map using split inclusions and modular theory.• Thermodynamic Maintenance and the Heisenberg Cut: Derives operational lower bounds on the minimal power required to maintain quantum coherence against uncontrolled open-system dynamics. It frames the quantum-to-classical transition not as an ontological collapse, but as a rigorous operational resource boundary.• Lattice Gauge Theory and Confinement Diagnostics: Benchmarks Petz recoverability against Wilson-loop diagnostics in Z_2 lattice gauge theories using exact diagonalization and tensor-network ladders.• Information Distance and Scaling: Investigates the finite-size scaling of Petz recovery lengths and establishes non-Gaussian clustering-recovery bridges via Conditional Mutual Information (CMI). This manuscript unifies all theoretical proofs, conditional interfaces, surrogate numerical evidence, and audit-friendly protocols of the AQFT and coherence-maintenance program into a single cohesive logical architecture.This comprehensive volume consolidates a 36-paper research program developed between December 2025 and January 2026.
