Wikipedia's "Sign Function" or "Signum Function," sgn(x), gives the
definition:

1) sgn(x) = -1 if x < 0, 0 if x = 0, 1 if x > 0 (so sgn(x) = x
divided by |x| if x is not 0).

We can then rewrite ERASE at least in the case of certain functions as
follows.

Let us define:

2) f(-r) = exp(-r)

Then:

3) ERASE f(-r) (that is, ERASE applied to the - sign of -r) = f(-r
sign(-r)) = f(r) = exp(r)

Thus, we can obtain the Inflationary Expansion exp(r) from the beta
decay (weak interaction) exp(-r) by using the ERASE function.

We can also use this idea to obtain a model of the Strong Interaction
as kr^2 from Newtonian Gravitation as Gm1m2/r^2 up to constants.

Notice that the Strong Interaction separated from the Electroweak
Interaction (Gravitation had already separated) in an era immediately
adjacent to Inflation, but also was preceded by the previous
separation of Gravitation from the other Interactions. The two last
statements of the previous post may have involved a similar simple
ERASURE for this reason.

I should mention that Chaplygin Gas, which is one theoretical
explanation of the Accelerating Universe, satisfying:

1) p = -k/rho^(k1) for k, k1 positive constants and p pressure, rho
density

may in fact be half or so of the "ERASE-ADD" substratum of the
Universe which theoretically (the latter) is expected to be a very,
very thin substance on which the Universe's ERASE and ADD (UNERASE)
operations occur. We arguably have an intuition of such a very thin
substance from ERASE-ADD operations in thinking which seem to have a
much "thinner" and less distinct quality than perception, or in non-
auditory and non-visual perceptions which seem to often be "thinner"
than auditory and visual perceptions. Erwin Schrodinger, if he
"intuited" this, may have been right in suggesting that biology is the
next domain to be studied by physics.

It is difficult to know how to use these possible relationships, but
one way would be to search for brain functions not captured by the
usually known properties of neurons, by using physics models rather
than neural networks (the latter simulate neurons).

There is a slight possibility (which may be bigger than we think) that
advanced life forms AUTOMATICALLY link to Chaplygin Gas as the
Universe expands. This would directly suggest the criticality of
studying brain functioning from these viewpoints.
