Physical Principles in Revealing the Working Mechanisms of Brain. Part IV

Abstract

Abstract The living brain is physically modeled as a universe, equivalent, in a way, to the physical universe we live in. While in the case of the physical universe the gravitation prevails, in the brain universe, if we may, the electricity prevails, but the mathematical description we provide is essentially the same in both cases. What is imperiously necessary in this approach is, first, a metric description of matter, then, of course, the physical interpretation of this description. These issues were treated, but only in their believed essentials, in the previous three instalments of the present work. The object of the present episode of the work is a classical space image of the matter. This image is worked out here having in the background the idea of a necessary physical connection between the matter of a universe and its fundamental physical structure. The matter can be characterized ‘optically’ as a Maxwell fish-eye, while the fundamental physical structure must be a dipole. Both these concepts are universal.
