10.18.2 Semiotics of the Universe

The topological object, BCT (Body-centered Tetrahedron), originated

from extending the concept of gnergy from biology to cosmology, i.e., to

the problem of the origin of the Universe. It was then further extended

to modeling the living cell (Figure 3.21), the human body [7, p. 144] (see

also Figure 3.25), the human mind (see Figure 10.4), and the Peircean

sign (see Figure 10.3). Although the nature of nodes and edges in these

applications of BCT are different (as summarized in Table 10.10), all

these applications reflect the topological properties of the BCT (see

Figure 10.15). It should be recalled that BCT was given the name, the

Tarragonator, because it belongs to the set of topological objects exhib-

iting the so-called Möbius relations (i.e., “Locally A or B; globally A

and B”; see [25, p. 195]). Therefore, it may be justified to refer to BCT

as a cosmic code, since it may reveal the topological structure of our

Universe. It is interesting to note that H. Pagels used the same phrase,

“cosmic code”, in 1982 to refer to quantum physics [438]. However,

BTC, as a cosmic code, symbolizes not only quantum physics (in the

form of information–energy complementarity) but also the theories of

special relativity (in the form of energy–matter supplementarity), bio-

logical evolution (in the form of information–life supplementarity), and

the topology of the Möbius band [25, pp. 195, 579]. Additionally, BCT

is a cosmic code, because it has the character of a cosmic formula, whose

meaning or output depends on the information that is inputted into the

five nodes.

One such example is shown in Figure 10.15, which reveals (a) the

physical principles underlying the physics of our Universe, namely, the

principle of the information–energy complementarity and the two supple-

mentarity principles, one involving energy (E) and matter (M) and the other

involving information (I) and life (L), and (b) the topological principle of

Möbius relations [25, p. 195], which states that

The Universe is E, M, I, or L, when viewed locally, and E, M, I,

and L (i.e., G) when viewed globally. (10.42)

Finally, it should be noted that Figure 10.15 symbolizes another set of

interesting features of our Universe:
