The Representation of Spacetime in the Medial Entorhinal Cortex Derives from an Underlying Model of Computation over the Complex Field
Clinton Jones and Jackie Parker
Abstract
The cortex forms a model of computation over the complex field. Mutually inhibitory logical primitives normalize
amplitudes under the 2-norm. A sufficient class of linear unitary operators exists to support a universal model of
computation. Recent results show that the medial entorhinal cortex constructs a representation of spacetime from
this underlying model. The lattice-like computational history is automatically generally covariant and background
independent under transformations providing for derivation of an Einstein-Regge spacetime
