Historical Foundations of Obidi's Theory of Entropicity (ToE)

The

Theory of Entropicity (ToE), a theoretical framework developed primarily by John Onimisi Obidi in 2025, posits that entropy is not merely a statistical measure of disorder but a fundamental, dynamic, and physical field that governs all aspects of reality, including spacetime, gravity, and quantum mechanics. 

Here are the key individuals and contexts associated with using Entropicity as a theory based on recent research: 

• John Onimisi Obidi (2025): The primary formulator of the Theory of Entropicity (ToE). Obidi’s work, published in 2025, proposes that entropy is the "fundamental field of existence". His framework introduces:
  • The Obidi Action: A variational principle that describes how the entropy field drives spacetime curvature and motion.
  • The Master Entropic Equation (MEE): An equation governing the evolution of the entropy field.
  • The No-Rush Theorem: A principle asserting that no physical interaction can occur instantaneously, with a non-zero, finite duration.
  • Reinterpretation of c 
    

    $c$
    : The speed of light is explained as the maximum rate at which the entropic field can rearrange information.
• Ginestra Bianconi (2024–2025): While her work is generally titled "gravity from entropy" rather than "Entropicity," her research is deeply linked to Obidi's framework. Bianconi proposed that gravity arises from quantum relative entropy between the spacetime metric and a matter-induced metric, and her work is considered a precursor or a specific, limiting case within the broader Theory of Entropicity.
• Other Influences/Related Concepts: Obidi’s ToE builds upon and extends previous entropic gravity concepts, including:
  • Ted Jacobson (1995): Derived Einstein's equations from thermodynamic principles.
  • Erik Verlinde (2010): Proposed gravity as an entropic force. 

In summary, the Theory of Entropicity is a 2025 development by John Onimisi Obidi that seeks to unify thermodynamics, gravity, and quantum mechanics, with Ginestra Bianconi providing foundational concepts in "gravity from entropy".

Entropicity is most notably used as a foundational theory in physics by John Onimisi Obidi, who formulated the Theory of Entropicity (ToE) in 2025. 

Principal Figures and Frameworks 

• John Onimisi Obidi (2025): Created the Theory of Entropicity (ToE), which elevates entropy from a statistical byproduct to a fundamental, dynamic field of existence. Obidi’s framework introduces the Obidi Action and the Master Entropic Equation (MEE), proposing that entropy flow generates space, time, and gravity.
• Ginestra Bianconi (2024–2025): Published "Gravity from Entropy," a framework that derives gravitational force from quantum relative entropy. ToE seeks to unify Bianconi's "G-field" as a special case within its broader entropic field theory.
• Erik Verlinde (2010–2011): Proposed "Entropic Gravity," suggesting gravity is an emergent entropic force rather than a fundamental interaction. ToE differs by treating entropy as a primary physical field rather than an emergent effect.
• Ted Jacobson (1995): Demonstrated that Einstein's field equations could be derived from thermodynamic principles, laying the groundwork for modern entropic theories. 

Applications of the Theory 

• Relativity: ToE reinterprets the speed of light (
  

  $c$
  ) as the maximum rate of entropic redistribution rather than a universal constant.
• Quantum Mechanics: The theory reconciles quantum measurement and wave function collapse by modeling entangled systems as connected through an "entropic bar".
• Cosmology: It addresses the "Cosmological Constant Problem" by suggesting dark energy is a residual entropic pressure from the universe seeking equilibrium.
• Consciousness: Obidi introduces "Self-Referential Entropy" (SRE), indexing conscious richness by the internal-to-external entropy flow ratio.
• Neutrino Physics: Used to reinterpret the PMNS matrix and neutrino mixing through entropic perspectives.
