Quantum Theory of Consciousness
Journal of Applied Mathematics and Physics January 1, 2023 Gan Zhi, Rulin Xiu
Consciousness is proposed to be a quantum phenomenon, and a quantum theory of consciousness (QTOC) is presented based on a new interpretation of quantum physics. This theory addresses the mind-body problem and the hard problem of consciousness, providing a physics foundation and mathematical formulation for studying consciousness and neural networks. It predicts the existence of a universal quantum vibrational field and large-scale, nearly instantaneous synchrony of brainwaves among different parts of the brain, body, people, and objects. The correlation between Schumann Resonances and some brainwaves is explained. Recent progress in quantum information theory, especially quantum entanglement and quantum error correction code, is applied to study memory and shed new light in neuroscience.
