    To prove the existence of causal relationship, forward arrow is not enough. Forward arrow or if-then statement only represents conditional probabilities which is NOT causal invariance. You must do backward checking at runtime(A B) for equivalency. Holy grail of how the universe works. Loss of causality occurs when an event does not follow the predefined structured pathway of hypergraph.

    A question: since hypergraph ticks/calculations are time, does it mean that there is only run-time... universe exists only at runtime...? what about past, future? What about the "loaf-of-bread" view of the universe, where everything (past present futire ) exists... tick is just next slice... what is next slice in hypergraph model? My guess is a history of branching of the hypergraph. But how do you access it. Also hypergraph ticks, do they propagate at some speed? Or we percieve them as simultaneous...

    Does the following quantum model agree with the Spinor Theory of Roger Penrose? Quantum Entangled Twisted Tubules: "A theory that you can't explain to a bartender is probably no damn good." Ernest Rutherford When we draw a sine wave on a blackboard, we are representing spatial curvature. Does a photon transfer spatial curvature from one location to another? Wrap a piece of wire around a pencil and it can produce a 3D coil of wire, much like a spring. When viewed from the side it can look like a two-dimensional sine wave. You could coil the wire with either a right-hand twist, or with a left-hand twist. Could Planck's Constant be proportional to the twist cycles. A photon with a higher frequency has more energy. (More spatial curvature). What if gluons are actually made up of these twisted tubes which become entangled with other tubes to produce quarks. (In the same way twisted electrical extension cords can become entangled.) Therefore, the gluons are actually a part of the quarks. Mesons are made up of two entangled tubes (Quarks/Gluons), while protons and neutrons would be made up of three entangled tubes. (Quarks/Gluons) The "Color Force" would be related to the XYZ coordinates (orientation) of entanglement. "Asymptotic Freedom", and "flux tubes" make sense based on this concept. Neutrinos would be made up of a twisted torus (like a twisted donut) within this model. Gravity is a result of a very small curvature imbalance within atoms. (This is why the force of gravity is so small.) Instead of attempting to explain matter as "particles", this concept attempts to explain matter more in the manner of our current understanding of the space-time curvature of gravity. If an electron has qualities of both a particle and a wave, it cannot be either one. It must be something else. Therefore, a "particle" is actually a structure which stores spatial curvature. Can an electron-positron pair (which are made up of opposite directions of twist) annihilate each other by unwinding into each other producing Gamma Ray photons. Does an electron travel through space like a threaded nut traveling down a threaded rod, with each twist cycle proportional to Planck’s Constant? Does it wind up on one end, while unwinding on the other end? Is this related to the Higgs field? Does this help explain the strange ½ spin of many subatomic particles? Does the 720 degree rotation of a 1/2 spin particle require at least one extra dimension? Alpha decay occurs when the two protons and two neutrons (which are bound together by entangled tubes), become un-entangled from the rest of the nucleons . Beta decay occurs when the tube of a down quark/gluon in a neutron becomes overtwisted and breaks producing a twisted torus (neutrino) and an up quark, and the ejected electron. The phenomenon of Supercoiling involving twist and writhe cycles may reveal how overtwisted quarks can produce these new particles. The conversion of twists into writhes, and vice-versa, is an interesting process. Gamma photons are produced when a tube unwinds producing electromagnetic waves. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Within this model a black hole could represent a quantum of gravity, because it is one cycle of spatial gravitational curvature. Therefore, instead of a graviton being a subatomic particle it could be considered to be a black hole. The overall gravitational attraction would be caused by a very tiny curvature imbalance within atoms. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> In this model Alpha equals the compactification ratio within the twistor cone. 1/137 1= Hypertubule diameter at 4D interface 137= Cone’s larger end diameter at 3D interface A Hypertubule gets longer or shorter as twisting occurs. 720 degrees per twist cycle. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> How many neutrinos are left over from the Big Bang? They have a small mass, but they could be very large in number. Could this help explain Dark Matter?

    I think I see how it works: you are not trying to maximize the number of compatible subgraphs that gets transformed by an update event, you are only constraining the updating input set to be maximal in the sense that no compatible subgraph is left untransformed, but not constrained to update events with the maximum possible number of transformations

    Or, in the causal graph, you just run one local update event at each node of the causal graph. And then your foliation choice defines what updates are simultaneous. So the causal graph depends on the particular order of the local update events, and causal invariance property stipulates that this does not matter because the causal graphs are all isomorphic

    Minkowski space is a diagram of the imagined relationship between space and time, its not isomorphic to anything beyond explaining some macro concepts in relativity, (including your choice of any multidimensional manifold with any number of dimensions and properties and constraints you like). Nothing in the diagrammatic Minkowski world is the foundation for actual physical laws, including gravity, quantum mechanics, and it never will be. Apart from all of the manifestations of energy and matter, space itself has no properties or structure of itself so a mathematical formulation assigning properties to some hypothetical manifold with any set of properties and constraints is a huge distraction and basically as failed string and m-brane theory has proved its a wasted effort. Physicists and mathematicians have been at this fools errand for almost 100 years and have not noticed it is getting them no-where toward understanding physical laws at a more fundamental level.
