Limits of human knowledge and the relationship between mind and matter — •Matthias Hanauske — Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Frankfurt, Germany

Fundamental metaphysical questions, like the human limits of knowledge have been discussed in the context of the confinement of quarks and the event horizon of black holes. Due to the strong gluonic interaction of QCD, the color space of quarks is not directly accessible by an external observer and black holes shield their inner area through event horizons. However, in future gravitational wave (GW) detections of binary neutron star merger systems it might be possible to detect the QCD phase transition by analysing the spectrum of the post-merger GW of the differentially rotating hypermassive hybrid star (HMHS). During the collapse of the HMHS to a Kerr black hole the color degrees of freedom of the pure quark core gets macroscopically confined by the formation of the event horizon. The second example focuses on metaphyisical problems of socio-economic complex networks and addresses the relationship between mind and matter by focusing on evolutionary quantum game theoretical concepts. Through a potential quantum-theoretical entanglement of the decision paths of the underlying players of the actor network, a population can escape a dilemma-like situation, if the value of entanglement is above a certain threshold.
