Valentin Koulikov

Valentin Victorovich Koulikov is a scientist and philosopher.
He was born October 31, 1952 in Moscow, Russia into a middle-class family.
Father: Victor Nickolaevich Koulikov
Mother: Larisa Paulovna Koulikova
In 1975 he receives his Masters degree at Moscow State Institute of Electronics and Mathematics (Technical University, founded as Moscow Institute of Electronic Machine-building).
In 1979 he receives his Ph.D. in Physics and Mathematics in IZMIRAN (Institute of Terrestrial Magnetism and Radio wave propagation, Academy of Sciences, USSR).
Early Years
These years his real passion was invention, resembling inventions in well-known book, “The Inventions of Daedalus” . Valentin himself never made any attempt to patent any of them, considering invention merely a tool to sharpen the mind.
In 1975-1977 he works in the experimental physics field (quantum electronics, nonlinear quantum optics) while becoming more and more interested in the fundamental theories of nature. He becomes deeply immersed in modern fundamental physics and decides to devote his life to developing radically new scientific, theoretical and technological methods for reaching the distant stars.
His early years bring him the experimental discovery that the human eye could easily see in the near infrared band of coherent electromagnetic radiation, up to 1500 nm. (We should mention that the well-established visible spectrum is 380-750 nm). He finds that the human eye interprets coherent infrared light as if it is regular light of different parts of the spectrum. Invisible (according to all the contemporary manuals in physics and physiology) light is interpreted by the eye in all the colors of the rainbow. Experiments allow Valentin to explain the observable phenomenae by nonlinear two-photon photoisomerization of the visual pigment molecules of the eye and to determine in which part of the eye the effect occurs the strongest. The results were mentioned also in the scientific journal Priroda, the Russian analog of the British “Nature.”
Unification of Relativity and Quantum Principles
Since 1977 he continues his research in theoretical physics (Gravity waves, General Relativity and Quantum field theory , the Unification of quantum and relativity principles).
In 1978 he becomes the leader of an informal group of young physicists whose goal is discovering a method of travel to distant stars without resorting to rocket propulsion. Traditional methods of space travel are not suitable for interstellar distances. It seems ridiculous to spend enormous amounts of fuel and energy first to accelerate, to transform the potential energy of fuel to the spaceship’s kinetic energy - all just to spend even more energy and fuel to slow the ship down, thus wasting the accumulated kinetic energy. The General Relativity theory and the Quantum field theory promised to solve the puzzle: quanta easily “borrowed” energy from the physical vacuum to later pay back the “debt.” Unfortunately, these two fundamental theories of modern physics were not united, and it was impossible to work out how to perform this trick with a macroscopic object, such as a starship.
Organizing an informal group under Soviet rule, however scientific, was no safe task. There was no risk of imprisonment or death, but if discovered, the loss of your career and reputation was guaranteed. There were certainly no places for the group to gather in public or in an educational facility, so a one-bedroom apartment had to double as an theoretical physics lab for a couple of years.
Results soon followed. In 1980, Valentin formulates the foundation of a new theory unifying quantum and relativity principles . The new theory was based on the hierarchy of physical opposition symmetries, where symmetries are allowed to break themselves by self-acting on themselves. Objects, like abstract quanta are represented in the theory not only as objects, but also as subjects, physically detecting, registering and “observing” other quanta and even themselves by interacting with them. Observation is considered a type of physical fundamental interaction. This principle was later coined the “Observation Relativity Principle” of the unified relativity-quantum theory (URQT) .
Opposition symmetry transformations or symmetry operators therefore described the “observation” of one fundamental quantum (the object) by another one (the subject). The first operator of such an observation of the original quantum (the abstract Universe, or Nothing, the Vacuum, or the Zero Point of reference) by itself is “interpreted” by another quantum as a “creation” operator. Its inverse operator, turns into a . Acting one after the other, they form an operator of quantum “life” or the fundamental operator of time (representing universal, abstract change). An opposite (inverse) operator, acting by destroying first and creating second, was interpreted as the operator of “recreation,” “dynamic conservation.” As the operator pointing back in time, it is also the “anti-time,” “anti-change” operator or, in other words, the dynamic “memory” operator.
Valentin considered this anti-time operator as actually an operator of physical space. Space here is considered a “memory” of “past” elementary physical events, quanta. “Events in time,” quanta in the “ present time” are observed directly, but past events are observed indirectly instead, in a form that we used to call physical space, or “distance.” To comprehend this interpretation, one has to understand that all that we see in physical space is actually in our past, and it has already happened (because light takes time to travel to your eyes). The past itself as anti-time is actually unobservable, because all that we observe while “seeing” distant objects are just events: photons (quanta) passing through our eyes right at the moment of observation.
All was becoming clear now, the details all falling into place. Three dimensions of space corresponded (are symmetrical) to the three states of time: the past, the present and the future. Physical space and time scales were relative like space and time themselves. The Universe was all around us in the form of the first quantum and inside all of us in the form of elementary identical quanta. The experimental fact that all quanta of the same type (like electrons, for example) are exactly identical (well-known quantum identity principle, the basis of Quantum field theory) shows us that all quanta are actually a single quantum - our Universe, physically “reflected” in itself and observed by itself billions and billions of times. The very reason that quantum spontaneity exists is because there is no physical way to directly observe anti-time, being the “empty” space intervals between observable quanta. Another way to put it is to say that no change (anti-change, conservation of state) is, really no information at all. The subject detector quantum in this case is not only totally identical to the object, but also changes exactly as the object does. The detector or sensor quantum hence remains indistinguishable from the object and will not observe any change in the object. Observations, therefore, are naturally and fundamentally relative (Observational Relativity Principle).
The new theory states that the well-known uncertainties in the quantum world are one and the same phenomenon as event horizons in relativity, effectively blocking detailed observations for particular reference frames. Travel back in time and speeds exceeding the fundamental speed (speed of light) are not directly observable in standard frames of reference, but it does not mean that these phenomena do not exist in nature. According to the URQT . Linguistic structural and phonetic oppositions in “wording” were treated as representing fundamental symmetries, in a firm step towards the most effective methods and ideas of modern science. Dialectic logic includes natural methods of creating and breaking opposition symmetries by self-interaction, and they are very similar to those used in the URQT ) .
Dial, named after “Dialectical” language, is simple to learn and use. Despite its mathematical foundation it is very close to natural human language, but much simpler in structure. The symmetry of oppositions in nature was built into Dial’s structural oppositions, intonation, phonemes, syllables, words and grammar, rising from bottom up. The meanings of Dialian words and phrases (interpretations, representations) were therefore put together with the words and phrases themselves. Due to its mathematical basis, Dial could be easily used not only in fundamental physics, but in any possible field of human knowledge or activity. The theorist group now proudly christened itself “GIRD” - the Group for the Investigation of and Research on Dial.
The only question asked in those days was whether members of the general public, especially children, could easily learn Dial. Could it serve as an effective communication tool? GIRD answered this question conclusively, by successfully teaching Dial to over three hundred volunteers aged anywhere from 7 to 50 , the system for semantic analysis , etc. Still, as an extremely radical theoretical tool, it seems to be ahead of its time. It is much easier to utilize Dial in everyday speech than to explain how it works in plain English.
Star Ships and Time Machines
In 1990 the results of many years of research were reported at the Annual Tsiolkovsky conference in Kaluga. Scientists announced that with the help of the new URQT theory . The new physical phenomenon was named “overdrive,” in homage to science fiction.
Scientists also demonstrated that the well-known Fermi paradox of Great Cosmic Silence is easily resolved when we consider the fact that all advanced extraterrestrial civilizations make common use of light speed. Fermi had stated in his paradox that there should be a great number of alien civilizations “out there,” but human kind has utterly failed to spot any. The common use of light-speed overdrive .
Personally Valentin is a modest man not without a good sense of humor. When he was asked about the Singularity , he replied thusly: “They say, the Singularity is near. And they are right. I am the Singularity. And I am already here”
