• Abstract: As a result of the identification of 'identity' and 'indistinguishability' and strong experimental evidence for the presence of the associated Bose-Einstein statistics in human cognition and language, we argued in previous work for an extension of the research domain of quantum cognition. In addition to quantum complex vector spaces and quantum probability models, we showed that quantization itself, with words as quanta, is relevant and potentially important to human cognition. In the present work, we build on this result, and introduce a powerful radiation quantization scheme for human cognition. We show that the lack of independence of the Bose-Einstein statistics compared to the Maxwell-Boltzmann statistics can be explained by the presence of a 'meaning dynamics', which causes words to be attracted to the same words. And so words clump together in the same states, a phenomenon well known for photons in the early years of quantum mechanics, leading to fierce disagreements between Planck and Einstein. Using a simple example, we introduce all the elements to get a better and detailed view of this 'meaning dynamics', such as micro and macro states, and Maxwell-Boltzmann, Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac numbers and weights, and compare this example and its graphs, with the radiation quantization scheme of a Winnie the Pooh story, also with its graphs. By connecting a concept directly to human experience, we show that entanglement is a necessity for preserving the 'meaning dynamics' we identified, and it becomes clear in what way Fermi-Dirac addresses human memory. There, in spaces with internal parameters identical words can nevertheless be assigned different states.

  We implement parameterized quantum circuits with definite and indefinite causal order. One of these is the expressibility, which measures how uniformly a given quantum circuit can reach the whole Hilbert space. We find a correlation between the quantum average causal effect and the entangling power.

  We show that quantization is present in human cognition in the form of the words behaving as quanta of human language. We investigate this entanglement, compute the von Neumann entropy and the amount of non purity of the density matrices of the words. We interpret these results in terms of the prospect of developing a quantum-inspired thermodynamics for the cultural layer of human society.

  Quantum theory deals with objects probabilistically at small scales, whereas relativity deals classically with motion in space and time.

One dimension of time and three dimensions of space are thus derived as the profound and inevitable framework of physics.
