Gravity Can Be Neither Classical Nor Quantized, which describes gravity at shortest distances must either be quantized, or quantization must emerge from a fundamentally classical theory. To illustrate my point I will discuss an example for a theory that is neither classical nor quantized, and argue that it has the potential to resolve the tensio

Reductionist Doubts,etermine the whole. This approach has been an outstanding success in science, but this essay will point out ways in which it could nevertheless be giving us wrong ideas and holding back progress. For example, it may be impossible to understand key features of the universe such as its pervasive arrow

Is Life Fundamental?,lty is simply that we don’t have the know-how to engineer chemical networks quiet as complex as life, at least not yet. However, current challenges and limitations in chemical synthesis and the design of complex chemical networks may be only part of the story

The Paradigm of Kinematics and Dynamics Must Yield to Causal Structure,t must therefore be concluded (with apologies to Minkowski) that henceforth kinematics by itself, and dynamics by itself, are doomed to fade away into mere shadows, and only a kind of union of the two will preserve an independent reality. The notion of causal structure seems to provide a good characterization of this union.
