Principle of Equivalence
Contents
Definition
The principle of equivalence describes the fact that in Evolutionary Dynamics there are concepts, phenomena, quantities, apparently of different nature, that, in a deeper perspective, can be considered having the same meaning, nature, origin, amount, value, properties, qualities or intensity, etc. Or, even more in general, things that appear to be different observing them in the level of Reality in which they manifest, but that appear to be equal or similar if we observe or describe them in the terms of more elementary concepts, phenomena, quantities, at a more elementary level of Reality.

Description
An important example. In the physical domain of Reality, some of fundamental physical quantities that characterize the manifestation of the Elementary Action (in its basic mode that we call Perturbation) at more complex levels of Reality (as the level of Action, of Information, the Structures of Information, Material Forms) can be considered as equivalent manifestations of the same phenomena and dynamics occurring at the more elementary level of Reality.
The most extended principle of equivalence operates in the physical world, in the real factory of space time. At this level, the most elementary level of Reality, where the occurrence of the Elementary Events represent the most elementary form of Existence, we can find this fundamental equivalence that give us an explanation of the deep nature of the some basic phenomena and some basic quantity/constant of Nature.
We are talking about mass density, dark energy, space-time curvature of the metrics, temperature of space time (CMB), velocity of propagation of information/causality in the field and density of the elementary perturbations (the distribution of quantum fluctuations of the Elementary Field) ) that characterize the Elementary Action can be considered as equivalent. They reflect an underlying equivalence among physical phenomena we are trying to describe.
Mass density, dark energy, space-time curvature of the metrics, temperature of the space time, velocity of propagation of information in the field and density of the elementary perturbations (the distribution of quantum fluctuations) are equivalent and have a unique physical, natural, basis. For example: in this perspective, we can say that mass does not curve space-time. Mass “is” (can be seen, or described, is the same thing of) the curvature of space-time. But not only, as above mentioned. We call this the Principle of General Equivalence, a specification of the Principle of Equivalence.
