Simulation Theory
Simulation theory is the idea that physical reality may arise from a deeper information process. OPH explores a concrete version of that idea: finite local systems make records, compare what they share, repair disagreements, and form the public physics we measure. It begins with no fitted numerical inputs.
The OPH version treats simulation theory as a physics proposal about information, records, and stable agreement. The technical papers define the detailed mathematical structures and tests.
One local mathematical closure calculation has a verified solution. No link from that solution to a measured physical quantity is derived. A separate proposal asks whether the capacity of shared records could relate to the cosmological constant. That proposal has no selected physical value and makes no prediction.
Simulation theory asks whether the world is generated by something deeper than the physical objects we see. OPH treats that as a question that needs clear rules and evidence.
OPH gives the deeper process local state, boundaries, shared records, and rules for repairing disagreement. The proposed world is the stable outcome of that process.
Observer Patch Holography starts from finite observer patches. Each patch sees only local data and shared overlap data. Neighboring patches must agree where their accessible descriptions overlap.
When disagreement is repaired and stable records persist, OPH studies whether familiar physics can appear: quantum theory, spacetime, particle structure, and observers.
The main public explanation of OPH as a simulation-theory research program.
The technical paper for the observer-patch reconstruction program.
The paper that describes the detailed patch, record, and synchronization model.
The route from simulation theory into the full OPH unification claim.
It is the idea that physical reality may arise from a deeper information process. OPH explores this through local systems that make records, compare what they share, repair disagreement, and form a stable public world.
OPH describes a closed observer-consistency structure. It explores self-reference without relying on an external programmer story.
