Quantum-Informational Principles for Physics
It is time to to take a pause of reflection on the general foundations of physics, for re-examining the logical solidity of the most basic principles, as the relativity and the gravity-acceleration equivalence. The validity at the Planck scale of such principles is under dispute. A constructive criticism engages us in seeking new general principles, which reduce to the old ones only in the already explored domain of energies. At the very basis of physics there are epistemological and operational rules for the same formulability of the physical law and for the computability of its theoretical predictions. Such rules give rise to new solid principles, leading us to a quantum-information theoretic formulation, that hinges on the logical identification of the experimental protocol with the quantum algorithm.
