Conceptual Foundations of the Theory of Algorithmic Time Field (ATF)
Abstract
This paper presents the Algorithmic Time Field (ATF) theory—a conceptual ontology offering a unified view of the nature of reality. The fundamental basis of the universe is postulated to be the Algorithmic Time Field — a self-referential, quantum-correlated information field. Topologically, this substance is not a smooth continuum, but a discrete structure — an evolving quantum hypergraph. The theory is based on the principle of inseparability: the geometry of this network (space) is inseparable from the data in its nodes (matter) and the algorithm for their recalculation (time). This approach eliminates the ontological gap between the substrate and the laws of physics, offering a unified model for explaining gravity and quantum phenomena.
