Unified Principles of Nature: Solution to the “Problem of Time”

Abstract

Although the concept of time was discussed intensively by authors over centuries, the “problem of time” is prominent today again in quantum gravity. As quantum physicists believe a more detailed understanding of the entanglement of time could lead to a unification of quantum-mechanics with general relativity, the author explores the “problem of time” in a deductive approach. Upon the solution of the problem of time, unified principles of nature are then postulated to integrate Newtonian laws, general relativity and quantum mechanics into one framework, offering a perspective to a new world model and a framework for the TOE.
