Entropy interpreted as a measure of symmetry within path integral formalism

Abstract

The new emerging quantum physics - quantum computing conceptual bridge, mandates a ``grand unification'' of space-time-matter and quantum information (all quantized), with deep implications for science in general. The major physics revolutions in our understanding of the universe are briefly reviewed and a ``missing'' equivalence principle is identified and its nature explained. An implementation as an external super-symmetry $\C{E}=ic\C{P}$ is suggested, generalizing the Wick rotation ``trick''. Taking advantage of the interpretation of entropy as a measure of symmetry, it is naturally asimilated within the present Feynman Path Integral algebraic formalism.
