Cosmic Event Horizons as Self-Simulation Iteration Boundaries in Wolpert-Recursive Cosmology

We propose that cosmic event horizons (black hole horizons, cosmological horizons, particle horizons) are iteration boundaries in a self-simulating recursive structure. Each iteration level n of the cascade zn defines a computational domain bounded by the norm 5n. The horizon is the boundary where one iteration level’s computational content becomes inaccessible to the next. This reading is consistent with Wolpert’s (2008) physical limits of inference and with Bousso’s covariant entropy bound.

Abstract

We propose that cosmic event horizons (black hole horizons, cosmological horizons, particle horizons) are iteration boundaries in a self-simulating recursive structure. Each iteration level n of the cascade zn defines a computational domain bounded by the norm 5n. The horizon is the boundary where one iteration level’s computational content becomes inaccessible to the next. This reading is consistent with Wolpert’s (2008) physical limits of inference and with Bousso’s covariant entropy bound.
