How to simplify the causal graph

The hypergraphs generated by Wolfram Physics are complex and chaotic.

The multiway graphs that trace every possible evolution of these hypergraphs become extremely complex and extremely chaotic after only a few iterations.

The causal graphs that plot which of the events in these multiway graphs has to happen before which of the other events look like spaghetti.

If we’re going to find mass/energy or momentum in Wolfram Physics – or special relativity or general relativity or quantum mechanics – then the causal graph is the place to look.

But if we’re going to have to find all of physics in a causal graph that looks like spaghetti, then I give up.

If we’re going to find all of physics in the causal graph, then we’re going to have to simplify.

How to simplify the causal graph?

Two ways:
• use a simpler rule; and
• collapse multiple nodes representing the same event into a single node.

Don’t worry, by the time we’re done, that’ll all make sense!

This is the pivotal episode in my exploration of Wolfram Physics. It establishes a firm foundation what comes next. From here on, we’ll be able to make serious progress... towards mass/energy, momentum, special relativity, general relativity and quantum mechanics.
