Dear Keppeler,
Your observations are excellent...
1. In the abstract you said, "I explore under which conditions goal-oriented behavior of macroscopic entities can emerge from goal-free microscopic dynamics. I conclude that under these circumstances mindless mathematical laws can give rise to aims and intention," very nicely.
2. Your starting sentences of the essay are very good... "Descriptions of the macroscopic world typically feature goal-oriented dynamics. A virus attaches itself to a host cell in order to subsequently make it produce more viruses. A plant may grow leaves in a way such that it can collect more sunlight for photosynthesis"
3. Macroscopic entities, in the context of this essay, may be as large as humans and other mammals or as small as bacteria and viruses.
4. Or imagine me filming anything happening around me and playing back the movie for you forwards or backwards. You will be able to tell within seconds whether I chose the wrong time-direction.As common as this observation is it may appear paradoxical when examining more closely the physical laws which ultimately govern the observed processes. These laws, think, e.g., of the laws of classical mechanics, exhibit no preferred direction of time: If a certain sequence of events is a solution to the equations of motion, then the reversed sequence is also a solution to these equations of motion
I got some observations please...
You can play the movie in reverse direction. May be classical mechanics support direction of time in reverse direction, like the story of H G Wells on time machine... But in reality time will not move backwards. It never happened and nobody witnessed. Dynamic Universe Model does not support time moving backwards.
Another Example ...in my essay... "Distances, Locations, Ages and Reproduction of Galaxies in our Dynamic Universe" Galaxy reproduction is the largest reproduction in the Universe. It is described in a MACRO way. Here the reproduction of Galaxies was described with many supporting papers and observations. Now you gave another support. Thank you very much.
For your information Dynamic Universe model is totally based on experimental results. Here in Dynamic Universe Model Space is Space and time is time in cosmology level or in any level. In the classical general relativity, space and time are convertible in to each other. That is one of the differences in both the models....
Many papers and books on Dynamic Universe Model were published by the author on unsolved problems of present day Physics, for example 'Absolute Rest frame of reference is not necessary' (1994) , 'Multiple bending of light ray can create many images for one Galaxy: in our dynamic universe', About "SITA" simulations, 'Missing mass in Galaxy is NOT required', "New mathematics tensors without Differential and Integral equations", "Information, Reality and Relics of Cosmic Microwave Background", "Dynamic Universe Model explains the Discrepancies of Very-Long-Baseline Interferometry Observations.", in 2015 'Explaining Formation of Astronomical Jets Using Dynamic Universe Model, 'Explaining Pioneer anomaly', 'Explaining Near luminal velocities in Astronomical jets', 'Observation of super luminal neutrinos', 'Process of quenching in Galaxies due to formation of hole at the center of Galaxy, as its central densemass dries up', "Dynamic Universe Model Predicts the Trajectory of New Horizons Satellite Going to Pluto" etc., are some more papers from the Dynamic Universe model. Four Books also were published. Book1 shows Dynamic Universe Model is singularity free and body to collision free, Book 2, and Book 3 are explanation of equations of Dynamic Universe model. Book 4 deals about prediction and finding of Blue shifted Galaxies in the universe.
With axioms like... No Isotropy; No Homogeneity; No Space-time continuum; Non-uniform density of matter(Universe is lumpy); No singularities; No collisions between bodies; No Blackholes; No warm holes; No Bigbang; No repulsion between distant Galaxies; Non-empty Universe; No imaginary or negative time axis; No imaginary X, Y, Z axes; No differential and Integral Equations mathematically; No General Relativity and Model does not reduce to General Relativity on any condition; No Creation of matter like Bigbang or steady-state models; No many mini Bigbangs; No Missing Mass; No Dark matter; No Dark energy; No Bigbang generated CMB detected; No Multi-verses etc.
Many predictions of Dynamic Universe Model came true, like Blue shifted Galaxies and no dark matter. Dynamic Universe Model gave many results otherwise difficult to explain
Have a look at my essay on Dynamic Universe Model and its blog also where all my books and papers are available for free downloading...
