There's not a unique measurement outcome n in space. The the rules that bell was assuming do not necessarily apply, right? I mean, i think that so in so, by the way, this maximum entanglement speed has all kinds of consequences. So for example, you can have entanglement horizons. And at that point, we will see black holes that have an event horizon in physical space and an event Horizon in branchill space.
It’s not easy, figuring out the fundamental laws of physics. It’s even harder when your chosen methodology is to essentially start from scratch, positing a simple underlying system and a simple set of rules for it, and hope that everything we know about the world somehow pops out. That’s the project being undertaken by Stephen Wolfram and his collaborators, who are working with a kind of discrete system called “hypergraphs.” We talk about what the basic ideas are, why one would choose this particular angle of attack on fundamental physics, and how ideas like quantum mechanics and general relativity might emerge from this simple framework.
