While laying the groundwork for my proposed wave-based science of Superphysics, I was glad to find that there is a growing interest in waves as seen in the 3Blue1Brown video:

Waves need linear algebra to notate and compute. However, I find that jumping directly into linear algebra is too complicated for most people. The problem is that pure math is quantitative in nature and not qualitative. Because of this, everything has to be defined beforehand. For example, in the video, Maxwell’s equation is given as:

∮B→⋅dℓ→=μ0(I+ddt(ε0∫E→⋅dA→))

The problem is that the processes such as dℓ must accommodate numerical variables such as dA in order to come up with a result, as a number. This requires all of the processes to be known. If one is wrong, then the answer is automatically wrong. It would be like requiring a house-builder to know a house’s entire blueprint before the house is built. This limits the number of house-builders to a few, reducing the number of new houses. Now think that those people are spaceship-builders and navigators instead of house-builders, and you will see an extreme shortage that will increase the cost of space-travel accordingly.

To get around this shortage, we will use the qualitative aspects of waves that combines its qualities such as amplitude, oscillation, vector, wavelength, etc. For example, in Wave 1 + Wave 2 = Wave 3, we assign qualities instead of numbers and processes so we can arrive at the general outcome faster.

Because it deals with qualities instead of quantities, I call it Quali-math. Assuming a pre-defined intuitive range of qualitative values:

abominable, hideous, very ugly, ugly, unattractive, soso, pretty, beautiful, very beautiful, gorgeous, drop-dead gorgeous

Then we can create equations:

pretty + pretty = beautiful

beautiful + 2(ugly) = ugly

hideous + beautiful = ugly

This can then be “translated” into any language:

maganda + maganda = sobrang ganda

kaakit-akit + kadiri = napaka-pangit

In a future post, we will expand this into chemical compounds computation, and in linear algebra to produce general qualitative outcomes instead of exact quantitative answers. This quali-math will make the most sense when you think of a spaceship using quantum teleportation that not only will use 2D space as in a car on Earth or a 3D space like an aircraft, but a space with four or five dimensions as time-multiverses and alternative universes, where normal math breaks down.

For example, 1 + 1 = 2 might be true for this universe, but it might not be true for a different universe where 1 + 1 = 1 or where the conception of two ideas automatically merges them into one idea. In such a universe, it is the mind that splits itself into different perception-units in order to create the idea of numbers (this is opposite in our universe, where the perceiving entity is one and the it is the observed entities that are multiples and discrete). A Quali-math system in this universe can transpose its logic and definitions more easily onto that universe, and vice versa, because it uses quality instead of quantity (Quality to one’s mind is the same quality even if he moves to another universe because his mind stays the same even if his universe changes its rules).
