The Fundamental Theory of Physics
1:30:35 - 1:35:18 (04:43)
The application of a rule in the fundamental theory of physics can be thought of as an event that transforms a piece of hypergraph into another piece of hypergraph, and requires the existence of the previous atom of space for another transformation to occur. The rule may look simple on paper, but the application of it can be complex.

The rule for the elements of a hypergraph is similar to that of cellular automata - if an atom of space already exists in the universe, another transformation can occur, but not otherwise.

Causal invariance is the idea that the order in which events occur doesn't matter as long as they respect a set of causal relationships, and is a powerful idea in the field of special relativity and other areas of mathematics and computer science.
