Fundamentals of Reality: Emergent Systems Development from Dimensionless Constants and Vacuum

The premise of this book is that by understanding the initial conditions at the origins of reality, we can comprehend how all of our observable physical systems (including chemical and biological systems) have emerged. The book focuses on familiar principles of quantum physics and provides very simple derivations of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, Pauli's Exclusion Principle, Schrodinger's wave equation, Noether's theorem, and the Continuity Equation. Background is provided in group theory and symmetries. Using these concepts, the book explores the nature of vacuum, of fundamental constants and particles, and of physical laws. Building on these basic principles, the book explains the emergence of atoms, the natural elements, chemical reactions, and life. In the process, numerous paradoxes are encountered and solved.
