CHAPTER

Exploring Causal Invariance and Hypergraphs

This chapter examines the concept of causal invariance and its significance across various fields, illustrated through examples from mathematics and computer science. It introduces causal graphs as frameworks for understanding the relationships between events, the complexities of space and time, and the implications for both observation and perception. The discussion further connects causal graphs to fundamental theories in physics, including special relativity, while emphasizing the growth of dimensions in hypergraphs and their impact on our comprehension of the universe.
