The Information-Complete Quantum Theory

Figure 1

The trinary picture of the world. The division of system , measurement apparatus , and programming system naturally arises in the information-complete description of physical systems. “The Taiji pattern” shows in an intuitive manner the - interaction (entanglement), while the green discs inside and outside the Taiji pattern represent the programmed measurement operations between and . In ancient China, Taoists regarded the Taiji pattern as a “diagram of the Universe.” The trinary picture of the world shown here is ubiquitous in the sense that the world, at the most fundamental level, is made up of a trinity: gravity (i.e., spacetime, ), elementary matter fermions (), and their gauge fields (); the trinity should be describable by the ICQT.
