Key points Argues that Husserl's "noema" and "noesis" can formally describe the genesis of the world from consciousness, with subjective temporality isomorphic to the objective temporality of the "world by itself." Proposes that this shared mathematical structure is embodied in physical decoherence via quantum information, and that the same process is isomorphic to how the "Self" appears through transcendental consciousness.

Abstract

Husserl’s “noema” and “noesis” are main concepts in phenomenology able to represent its originality. Following the trace of a recent paper, its formal and philosophical approach is extended to both correlative notions, in the present article. They are able to reveal the genesis of the world from consciousness in a transcendental method relevant to Husserl, but furthermore described formally as a process of how subjective temporality appears being isomorphic to objective temporality of the “world by itself” (an abstraction meaning it out of consciousness or transcendental consciousness): thus, it shares the same mathematical structure, which is embodied in the physical process of decoherence by the physical quantity of quantum information. The temporal world is able to appear naturally . The same process translated by formal and mathematical tools as interpreted in terms of “noema”, “noesis”, or transcendental consciousness is isomorphic to how “Self” appears in virtue of transcendental consciousness.
