Relation of Atomic Theory to the Holographic Principle & the Mystery of Creation

Abstract

The holographic principle of quantum gravity tells us that the fundamental nature of the universe is quantized bits of information, called qubits, encoded on a holographic screen. The holographic screen in turn can be understood as an event horizon that arises in an observer's accelerated frame of reference. This way of understanding the holographic principle is inherent in the AdS/CFT correspondence, but more generally can be understood in terms of matrix models that utilize non-commutative geometry. This article explores the connection of the holographic principle to both atomic theory and the creation of the universe.
