TFNR - The variational (spatial and temporal) evolution of Reality

The variational (spatial and temporal) dimension manifests itself in a continuum that spreads from nothingness to wholeness. This dimension is a metric of the level of organization of the Field, Action and Information, the Structures of Information and the Forms that evolve in it, a "scale" of the complexity of Reality and the Forms that populate it. Different states of Reality, different levels of expression, of manifestation, of the passive aspect of the Primary Sourcethat depend on the correlations among Elementary Events, the tiny fluctuations of the Field at Planck scale produced by the incessant pressure of the Fundamental Force.

The main steps in the evolution of variational (spatial and temporal) dimension are what we call the "States of Elementary Field":

• Nothingness: absence of Elementary Event, no fluctuations in / of the Field. No interaction between Force and Field, no manifestation of the Source. It is a hypothetical state, because the Source cannot avoid expressing itself. Complete, absolute homogeneity. It can be represented as a scalar field with the same constant value in each point in space and time.

• Emptiness: absolute homogeneity of the distributions of the Elementary Events; unstructured Field; no dark nor visible structures, no matter and no radiation (no gravitational waves, and no electromagnetic waves). No correlation among Elementary Events, full stochastic independence of the distributions of the fluctuations of the Field in all the modes of Elementary Action. The most elementary form of existence. The homogeneous, not perturbed, quantum vacuum.

• Somethingness: the structured Field. Presence of Structures of Information, which organize the Field under the incessant creative and evolutive pressure of the Force:
  • Dark structures - low density extended structures (Vortices: dark halos; Waves: gravitational waves; Interactions: cosmic web)
    • Vortices / Matter structures composed by:
      • Dark matter (positive mass): low density negative spatial correlations in the distributions of the fluctuations of the Field
      • Dark energy (negative mass): low/medium density positive spatial correlations in the distributions of the fluctuations of the Field
    • Waves / Energy structures / Radiant energy:
      • Gravitational Waves
  • Visible structures high density compact structures (Vortices: massive particles as leptons, quarks, bosons; Waves: electromagnetic waves; Interactions: composite particles as baryons and mesons):
    • Vortices / Matter structures:
      • Ordinary matter: (positive mass in the inner space volume, negative mass/positive dark energy in the outer space regions): high density inner negative and low density outer positive spatial correlations in the distributions of the fluctuations of the Field
    • Waves / Energy structures / Radiant energy:
      • Electromagnetic Waves high density spatial correlations in the distributions of the fluctuations of the Field
  • Ordinary energy: Elementary, Physical Information

• Wholeness: represents the entire infinite and eternal Field, with its endless flux of organization (its evolving essence / form), the sum of all that existed, exists and will exist, the whole Reality, the Universe in evolution.

Any level emerges from the previous one. There isn’t a rigid separation among the different levels, they are mixed. In each existing form, at any level of Reality, of complexity, we can find a mix of the above forms of variationality (Spatiality and Temporality). Different layers, with their dominant form of variationality , coexist in the same object of Reality. So, at the most elementary level of the Field, we can find the domination of Uncertainty, the chaos of the Elementary Events, the fluctuations of the space time distances at the Planck scale, the Elementary Action, the quantum foam. The evolution of each point of space-time can be represented as a stochastic process in with every point-event manifests a full stochastic independence of the evolution of all the other points of space-time field. Indeterminism is inherent to the very nature, or, better, to the nature of the most basic level of Reality.
