In Binary Pulse Theory: Cycle Duration
BPT builds on itIn standard physics
Models in which the universe goes through repeated cycles, such as Penrose's conformal cyclic cosmology.
In Binary Pulse Theory
The book compares its cycles to Penrose's and to Steinhardt and Turok's: one universe's end becomes the next one's beginning, and the duration grows with how far entropy must climb.
The BPT terms behind it
Cycle Duration is the length of one complete cycle of a universe's evolution, from genesis through maturation and senescence to collapse and renewal, set by the universe's effective Hubble parameter and the span of its entropy.
The Computational Reset Mechanism is the book's reading of entropy as a renewal process: maximum entropy is a phase-neutral state at which the parent universe dissipates and each of its wells seeds a child whose Pulsecore starts at low entropy in its own frame, so the cosmos cycles rather than dies.
Mutual Information Growth is the rate at which correlations between parts of a recursive system add to its shared information content, driving emergence.
