Emergent gravity from patterns in natural numbers

TL;DR

This paper proposes a novel framework linking natural number partitions to gravitational systems, suggesting gravity emerges from patterns in partitions and unifying metric and matter, with testable predictions about black hole information and radiation.

Contribution

It introduces a new approach connecting number partitions to gravity, deriving metrics and entropy, and predicts observable effects in gravitational radiation and black hole information.

Findings

Gravity emerges from patterns in natural number partitions.

Black-hole entropy and Schwarzschild metric share a common origin.

Predictions include retrieving information from gravitational waves and reversing black hole formation.

Abstract

There is natural association of entropy with gravitational systems on one hand and partition of natural numbers on the other hand. We show that given a partition of natural numbers, it is possible to directly associate a metric with it. Gravity emerges from patterns in partition. In the process, metric and matter is unified into a fundamental notion of partition. More precisely, we find a common origin of Schwarzschild metric on one hand and black-hole entropy on the other hand. It immediately implies that information and metric are one and the same and any change in information is stored as change in metric. Thus gravitational radiation carries black-hole entropy worth of information. There are three novel experimental predictions. First, we can retrieve information from the gravitational radiation emitted during merger. Second, if radiation with right information is sent in, black hole absorbs information and decays instead of increasing in mass. This is reverse process of black hole formation. Third, till now only known way of observing nature is through radiation and fields measured far from the source. There is a completely new way of seeing nature if we can capture the whole partition of the source in one go.
