Ultimate Internets

TL;DR

This paper conceptualizes the quantum growing network as the 'ultimate Internet', highlighting its role in quantum computation limits, causality, spacetime foam, and cosmological issues, proposing a self-organizing universe system.

Contribution

It introduces the idea of the QGN as the ultimate Internet, connecting quantum computation, causality, and cosmology in a unified framework.

Findings

QGN saturates quantum computational limits

Links QGN features to causality and spacetime foam

Addresses cosmological constant and information loss puzzles

Abstract

In a previous paper (gr-qc/0103002), the inflationary universe was described as a quantum growing network (QGN). Here, we propose our view of the QGN as the "ultimate Internet", as it saturates the quantum limits to computation. Also, we enlight some features of the QGN which are related to: i) the problem of causality at the Planck scale, ii) the quantum computational aspects of spacetime foam and decoherence, iii) the cosmological constant problem, iv) the "information loss" puzzle. The resulting picture is a self-organizing system of ultimate Internet-universes.
