This project validates the Epigenetic Memory Hypothesis through the lens of Unified Physics (The Theory of Everything). Moving beyond standard stochastic models, we simulate bacterial Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs) as holographic information structures driven by entropic fluctuations (
We demonstrate that biological memory is not merely a chemical accident but a thermodynamic inevitability when information is encoded on the boundary of the system (Holographic Principle).
Our in silico research confirms the hypothesis through three rigorous experiments.
Hypothesis: Networks with boundary-encoded logic ("Holographic") are more stable than standard random networks. Result: Holographic networks showed a significantly tighter distribution of final state variances, indicating robust attractor dynamics.
Hypothesis: Fluctuations scaled by the cosmological constant
Hypothesis: Bacteria can learn to "remember" a stress event through topological adaptation of the holographic boundary. Result: Using the Entropic Optimizer, we evolved a strain that retains a clear memory trace (phenotypic divergence) of a transient stress for over 20 generations.
The simulation is built upon a custom Python physics engine:
-
$\Omega$ RNG: A non-linear random number generator derived from the universal compression parameter. - Holographic Neural Layers: Information processing where "bulk" dynamics emerge from "boundary" weights.
- Entropic Optimizer: An evolutionary algorithm that escapes local minima using "entropic temperature" scaling.
All research scripts are reproducible.
