Time: From the Totality to Quantum Information

EasyChair Preprint 3551

Abstract

The paper justifies the following theses: The totality can found time if the latter is
axiomatically represented by its “arrow” as a well-ordering. Time can found choice and thus
information in turn. Quantum information and its units, the quantum bits, can be interpreted as
their generalization as to infinity and underlying the physical world as well as the
ultimate substance of the world both subjective and objective. Thus a pathway of
interpretation between the totality via time, order, choice, and information to the substance of
the world is constructed. The article is based only on the well-known facts and definitions and
is with no premises in this sense. Nevertheless it is naturally situated among works and ideas
of Husserl and Heidegger, linked to the foundation of mathematics by the axiom of choice, to
the philosophy of quantum mechanics and information.

Keyphrases: choice, order, quantum information, time, totality, well-ordering
