Abstract: By using a simple method – arithmetic is quantized. This quantization procedure reveals an extra
mathematical ‘counting-force’ that is equivalent to the partitioning of all physical ‘counting’ objects. This
‘counting-force’ is shown to be the process of entropy that is the partitioning of all physical objects from an initial
state (maximum temperature and minimum entropy) into a final state (maximum entropy and minimum temperature).
Keywords: Arithmetic, Quantization, Entropy.

The difference between Mathematical Physics and Physical Mathematics
On the quantisation of counting, or on counting one white stone and one black stone ○ + ● = 2 stones.
The language of ‘1+1=2’ is quantised using three objections to the classical Greek picture.
XPP (Xmas Plum Pudding) is a counting model based on 1+1=2, the familiar equation 1+1=2 is the most basic
symbolic representation for arithmetic. 1+1=2 is the quintessential counting equation it is the archetype event chain
for simple reckoning. In XPP; mathematics as a subject is the study of the interaction of the logic objects +,= with
the action of the counting objects 1,1, and 2. In XPP we look at this simple equation in some detail and show that the
traditional Greek model of addition is based on a number of false assumptions that makes it incompatible with QM.
Objections to the old model of 1+1=2.

Objection Three
Think of it this way, the LHS uses a mode of interaction
between each and every element, since each and every
primitive object must be labeled with a ‘one’. At this stage
of the event of 1+1=2 we have uncounted objects labeled
‘one’ that are the elementary constitutes of the ‘+’ logic
system. Only a mixed system of logic can connect a LHS
that uses exclusively each and every object with a RHS
using any particular collection of the elementary entities.
The point is that RHS and LHS use the primitive
axiomatic objects differently. In other words the ‘=’ logic
system acts on the labels but not on the objects. LHS is an
uncounted system and the RHS is a counted system, and
the ‘=’ sign is the logic that transcends, RHS and LHS
labels. (See objection two diagram.)
1
Objection Two
I know, I know, I know the whole point of counting is that
the LHS elements (and it doesn’t matter how many)
became one combined ‘grouping’, a collected whole, a
counted object on the RHS. Commonly counting changes
‘many’ uncounted objects (LHS) into ‘one’ counted
object (RHS). Think of it like this, on the LHS the ‘+’
sign collects the objects to be counted, and this ‘+’ sign is
an independent logic system to the RHS. That is the ‘+’
sign has hidden paths to the RHS. The LHS has parts
waiting to be counted by the ‘+’ sign the ‘+’ operates on
each and every object. The ‘+’ logic is a distinguishable
each and every system, quite different from the RHS
indistinguishable any operation logic. The ‘+’ sign deals
with each and every object while the RHS deals with any
general counted two as a collection but it is the LHS label
and RHS label that coordinates all ‘=’ operations of the
event of 1+1=2. (See objection one diagram.)
○+●
Objection One
Look at objection three, on the LHS there is one white
stone and one black stone and on the RHS there is also
one white stone and one black stone. Exactly how does
counting the LHS elements change one white stone and
one black stone into two stones on the RHS? Because by
inspection after the so-called count we still have each side
exactly the same. There is no difference before the event
of counting and after the event; there is no way of
knowing whether any individual white stone or any
individual black stone has been counted or not counted.
Look at objection three ○●=○●. Look at the elements
on both sides of this well-known equation. By inspection
nothing has changed there is no difference. On the LHS
we have one white stone and one black stone and the RHS
we have one white stone and one black stone. Counting
does nothing and can do no change to the objects on the
LHS and RHS of 1+1=2, because the LHS equals the
RHS by definition.
The ‘+’ sign is an independent
logic system to the RHS. The ‘+’
uses each and every object. That is
‘+’ is a hidden variable to the RHS.

This is how the distinguishable logic works for each and

variable labels are hidden to the RHS. The LHS ‘1+1’ has a
different interaction mode than the RHS. This is the
distinguishable mode of counting. Clearly LHS objects of the
event act as fermions, there are many different LHSs that are
available to be ‘condensed’ into one RHS. Many LHSs →one

the LHS is different than the RHS. See bottom figure.

This is how the indistinguishable logic works for any object

hidden LHS paths of uncounted objects. The RHS interaction
is the indistinguishable mode of counting. Think of it like this
from counting we cannot construct the objects that where
counted to give us a general two. Examples of LHSs 1+1 =
8−6 = 5+10−13 all equal two there is no way of coordinating
the logic of the elements of the LHS with the elements of the
RHS. The RHS objects of the event acts as bosons, all the
objects are in one ‘counted’ state labeled two. The RHS is a
Bose-Einstein condensate. See bottom figure.

The new XPP model for 1+1=2 is a representation where the inherent difference of the LHS and RHS is respected
always in the structure of the model. The LHS is always a fermionic system for each and every object of the event
of 1+1=2. The RHS is always a bosonic system for any object of the event of 1+1=2. And the labels LHS and RHS
are always a SUSY logic to combine all objects of the event of 1+1=2. Counting is a loss of configuration from the
LHS system to the RHS system and to the in toto system.

loss of identity of each and every object, into a
indistinguishable state ‘object’ called counted, and these two
sides must be symmetric in both directions (starting from the
left side going to the right side, or vice versa.)

The fundamental difference between the classical
Greek picture and the new XPP model is that the
distinction between the uncounted LHSs and the
counted RHS is maintained always in the structure
of the model; whereas this distinction is lost almost
immediately in the normal picture. In the classical
picture, there is no automatic sense of loss of
configuration space for the three interaction modes
of the event of 1+1=2, but in the XPP model we
keep in the structure the past histories of the count.
By the model we must accept that the label ‘boson’
and the label ‘fermion’ are combined by the SUSY
rules and not that the actual bosons and fermions
have ‘counter-particles’. It is the labels that we
equate in XPP.
In the new XPP model we have three logic
interaction systems that work as a seamless whole.
That is the fermionic LHSs and the bosonic RHS
and the SUSY in toto system. XPP starts with this
simple idea of the bosonic RHS, which is the
obvious issue in counting; ‘many different LHSs all
make the same RHS’ this is the basis of the new
quantum model of counting called toy XPP. This
very simple and obvious idea is the basis for
counting and it is made one of the pillars of a new
conceptual basis for quantum counting of
elementary objects. The quantisation of math’s must
start, from the simplest of basis that of the
fundamental counting event 1+1=2.
If we can make the basic counting equation 1+1=2 use QM language exclusively then a lot of the mysterious
behaviour of the theory should disappear. To quantise counting is to quantise mathematics that is make mathematics
more of a physics model. We force the structure of counting to conform to basic QM considerations. And by this
one simple change of emphasize to the old model of ‘1+1=2’, that many different LHSs all give the same RHS we
can generate a very simple model quantum system, that is a ‘toy’ XPP universe.

There is no classical analogue for the three interaction modes, yet they can be understood in terms of wellestablished quantum mechanical concepts.
Notice the ease that XPP’s ‘1+1=2’ connects naturally to QM considerations.
XPP fermions in the model follow the classical algebra laws. The fermions are distinguishable, that is no LHS
particles have exactly the same state (= quantum
numbers). In XPP this is the reason why we can
separate out identical objects labeled 1, on the LHS.
In the model we have ‘1+1’, we have two identical
objects that are distinguishable. This ‘contradictory’
idea is a very simple and well-known phenomenon
in quantum mechanics. The well-known algebra rule
x + y = y + x or more concretely 6 + 7 = 7 + 6 is an

The false vacuum are the ‘+’ states
structure to obey quantum conceptions.
In QM terms the LHSs are a fermionic gas. We have gas particles with maximum internal degrees of counting
freedom; the uncounted objects have hidden “internal” variables to the RHS because LHS configuration space is
different. The temperature of the gas is at maximum (hottest) since the thermal states are labeled by each and every.
And the average kinetic energy is at maximum (highest) because any configuration is defined by each and every
motion. The gas is at minimum (zero) entropy because no available states since the particles have maximum
available degrees of freedom, the particles seem to have inherent motion to the RHS. The LHS particles labeled
'fermions' act as in a state of zero entropy and max temperature and are the initial state of any configuration. In
physics the name for this state is the ‘big bang’. The LHSs are the toy universes’ ‘initial’ partition that is at the big
bang everything became ‘distinguishable’ and the ‘+’ states are the toy’s false vacuum.
XPP bosons in the model follow the Bose-Einstein statistics. Bosons are indistinguishable and act as a minimum
configuration for the LHSs, since no available
degrees of freedom, because there is only one state
that is labeled ‘counted’. The bosons are at min
temperature because there are no available states and
the label each and every is meaningless. Or more

state of all histories of the event of 1+1=2.
The vacuum state fully occupied.
The ‘final’ counted partition is a singlet state, where each and every fermion is ultimately labeled by one over-riding
RHS quantum number in our case ‘2’, in the general case the ‘one counted state’. In QM terms the RHS is a BoseEinstein condensate with hidden ‘internal-LHS’ variables, that is inherent motion of the bosons, even if no quantum
(LHSs) states. We have maximum occupation but with the minimum configuration, that is max entropy and min
temperature. Toy XPP bosons do not see barriers, their range is maximum (infinity) and their kinetic energy is
minimum. The boson state is the true vacuum state for the LHS. It appears to be a fully occupied state to the LHS.
Again this ‘contradictory’ idea, that the quantum vacuum is full is a very simple and well-known QM phenomenon.
The normal quantum vacuum is a heaving melee of ‘everything-ness’; from the vacuum spontaneously anything can
appear because of the time-energy uncertainty principle. This is also true in the toy XPP model from the RHS ‘2’
any LHS can be generated by the SUSY rules (the toy’s time-energy uncertainty principle). The RHS represents the
exemplar of behaviour for the LHSs. The behaviour of the RHS is the ‘ideal’ final partition of the particles of the
LHS. LHS particles cannot behave as the RHS, but the course of any path of each and every history of all objects of
‘1+1=2’ does lead to ‘2’. The bosons have min temperature and max entropy and the label ‘bosonic state’ is the final
state for counting, this is why it is called the big crunch state, since this is the same behaviour as the normal physics
big crunch. To the RHS each and every is only one ‘history’ of all interactions of 1+1=2. Creation is the singular
bang of distinguishability and the crunch is the demise of identity into one common state of indistinguishability.

XPP’s SUSY logic in the model follows a ‘thermodynamic work cycle’ and is the in toto interaction.
The SUSY logic is the in toto interaction mode and is the
toy’s time-energy uncertainty principle. Since in the toy
XPP counting model the only event is the counting
interaction symbolically labeled ‘1+1=2’. The toy XPP
time-energy uncertainty principle is made equal to ‘1+1=2’
entropy-temperature cycle. Always in the model we force
the language of the count to be quantum we always use QM

always always always. The in toto mode is the following

The table above is the final stage of the logics that are
needed to make ‘1+1=2’ completely symmetric. The final
logic is called SUSY IN/OUT and makes the count
1+1=2 , 2=1+1
1+1=2 IN to table 2=1+1 OUT of table
totally symmetric label-wise, mathematical counting takes
no physical time to complete and the table expresses this
condition and is equivalent to all paths of all histories.
Think of it like this we have three descriptions going on at
once; the LHS the fermionic story, the RHS the bosonic
story and the SUSY story and all these stories (=logics)
must join seamlessly, because everything is based on
‘1+1=2’ which is the basis of counting for mathematics.
And mathematics would become suspect if doubt could be
cast on the one equation one and one equals two that is
totally comprehensible and totally believable. Nobody
doubts 1+1=2 and that is the root trouble. The objections
stay fixed in the structure of the model, the objections are
handled or ‘over-come’ by introducing ‘larger’ and ‘larger’
logics that contain the elementary elements and logic
images (=labels) until at SUSY we have that the logic
doesn’t involve the elementary elements directly, only
through all paths of all histories can the whole picture for
the count of ‘1+1=2’ be quantised.
The story of ‘1+1=2’ so far.
The toy XPP LHS fermions, live in an environment with a true quantum vacuum (the RHS) which cannot be directly
accessed by the fermions (since it is a bosonic state) where anything can be spontaneous generated (=projected) at
random (because there is no direct connection between the label exchange SUSY rules that complete the work cycle
of the elementary objects for counting). The RHS bosons are the carriers of a universal ‘force’ that seems to bind the
fermions for any configuration for each and every motion. This counting ‘force’ is mediated by a boson of infinite
(max) range and zero (min) mass. This universal ‘force’ connects everything via counting. Because of the SUSY
rules it appears that an extra counting ‘force’ is working additional to the normal classical rules and the RHS
condensate rule. In toy XPP we have an additional counting tendency ‘force’ for elementary objects of the event,
this is the basis for thermodynamics in normal physics. The automatic counting of everything via a process is a
natural phenomena of toy XPP ‘1+1=2’. In the toy model entropy the process is a consequence of SUSY rules.
Notice the ease and the method that the language of normal thermodynamics can be very naturally draped over the
normal classical ideas about counting. After all thermodynamics is a counting partition theory. Think of it like this
the LHS spontaneously goes to the RHS. The LHSs have an ‘irreversible’ tendency to proceed via counting
processes to a final ‘ensemble’. This is the basic idea about counting (and thermodynamics), that the LHS elements
are forced by an irreversible process (that happens spontaneously) to behave such that the course of each and every
motion of any of the LHSs all go to one final degenerate counted state that is the same final partition called the
RHS.
The thermodynamics for the counting equation writes itself. The LHSs partition can be generated ‘spontaneously’ if
a measure for entropy can be defined. The initial distinguishable partition of objects is at max temp and min entropy
since there are min degrees of freedom and max configuration as compared to the RHS. The final indistinguishable
partition of objects is at min temp and max entropy since there are max degrees of freedom and min configuration as
compared to the LHSs.
The RHS state acts as the quantum vacuum counting state. From the vacuum ‘2’ anything that is each and every
Left Hand Side can be generated but the LHSs of ‘2’ and the RHS of ‘1+1’ are coordinated by the SUSY rules. The
RHS bosonic state, is the ideal state for the LHSs that is due to the SUSY logic structure of the quantum count there
is a automatic tendency for fermions in the LHSs false vacuum ‘+’ states to ‘conspire’ mysteriously to go to the
same final condensed state, using false RHS bosons. Consider the following example
1 + 1= 8 + (-6) = 15 + (-10)+ (-3) = … = ‘2’
many uncounted LHSs 1 + 1= 8 + (-6) = 15 + (-10)+ (-3) = … = ‘2’ always the same condensed counted state
The LHSs acts as the states of motion where in the toy XPP fermionic particles of nature obey algebra. The reason
why thermodynamics (=counting) works at all in the toy is because of the super-exchange of labels, entropy the
process is due to SUSY logic. And SUSY is an external logic to nature if nature (where counting stones happens) is
defined to be the LHS and the RHS. This external logic to nature is a pure symmetry unbroken SUSY. In QM terms
this external pure symmetry is CPT (in a singlet state). In toy XPP the SUSY ‘=’ logic is equivalent to the CPT
symmetry (as a singlet state) in the real-physical universe. Also in toy XPP the SUSY IN/OUT logic is equivalent to
entropy.
How to obtain the bare mass and the rest mass of the false fermions and bosons? It wouldn’t be a complete
catastrophe if our mathematics was constructed such that the counting equation is based on this logic
1+1 ≦ 2
and
1+1 ≧ 2
so long as it isn’t possible to observe violations of the strict 1+1=2 counting equation.

Conclusion
The difference between Mathematical Physics and Physical Mathematics.
Nearly everybody is familiar with mathematical physics, whereby physics principles are used in conjunction with
the methods of mathematics to capture a picture of the interaction of the physical elements of reality. In XPP we are
doing physical mathematics we use mathematical principles in conjunction with the methods of physics to capture
the interaction of the mathematical elements of reality.
Supposedly 1+1=2 applies to nature in some direct and obvious manner because it is widely believed that ‘1+1=2’ is
observed to be ‘true’ most of the time; well at least for two stones, that is one white stone, and one black stone.
What is not widely appreciated is that arithmetic is doable in our universe, Paul Davies in his book The Mind of God
in the section called Why does arithmetic work? expresses this idea concisely
“Arithmetic operations such as counting seem so basic to the nature of things that it seems hard to conceive of
a world in which they could not be performed. Why is this?”
and goes on
“The mathematician R.W. Hamming refuses to take the doability of arithmetic for granted, finding it both
strange and inexplicable. ‘I have tried, with little success,’ he writes, ‘to get some of my friends to understand
my amazement that the abstraction of integers for counting is both possible and useful. Is it not remarkable
that 6 sheep plus 7 sheep make 13 sheep; that 6 stones plus 7 stones make 13 stones? Is it not a miracle that
the universe is so constructed that such a simple abstraction as number is possible?’”
and
“The fact that the physical world reflects the computational properties of arithmetic has a profound
implication.”… “ this capability hinges on a deep and subtle property of the world. There is evidently a crucial
concordance between, on the one hand, the laws of physics and, on the other hand, the computability of the
mathematical functions that describe those same laws. This is by no means a truism. The nature of the laws of
physics permits certain mathematical operations — such as addition and multiplication — to be computable.”
Physical Mathematics explains why we can count at all because the interaction of the mathematic elements of reality
are so constructed that all physical elements must form one counting event countable by entropy. Recall entropy (the
all SUSY ‘force’) is the spontaneous counting (=partitioning) of each and every thing in the universe to a final
degenerate state of any collection of objects.

In mathematical physics we
have that physical principles
are the foundations of reality,
while in physical mathematics
mathematical principles are the
foundation of reality.
