Mathematical development: a theory of natural creation
Abstract
The physical universe is the embodiment of necessary mathematical forms by ever‐present flux. Interaction of these forms generates diversity, novelty, complexity, and higher levels of organization. Lattice order, group opposition, and topological transformation are generators necessary and sufficient to construct mathematics. Homologous cognitive structures generate human mental development. Process theory proposes that these mathematical generators also create nature. Lattice order is embodied as action, group opposition as two‐valued information, and topological transformation as spatial organization.
