The CTMU is the "Cognitive Theoretic Model of the Universe". It is also known as the theory of everything or unified field theory. In mathematical terms, it is meant to bring the reader into isomorphism with the universe. Not only does the CTMU explain the universe, but also explains itself as it too is part of the universe.
The uniqueness of the CTMU amongst other theories of the sort is that it postulates a solution to what are termed "false dichotomies" or paradoxes. In so describing such paradoxes it covers the scientifically vexing determinancy/indeterminancy paradox, which is common in things like wave-particle duality and quantum physics. It implies that the determinancy and indeterminancy in systems is no paradox at all, but together compliment one of the CTMU's most important causal/acausal principals: Self-determinancy.
Amongst the self-determinancy idea there are new and equally important constructs of self-containment (the universe is self-contained), self-reference (the universe references itself), and other examples sufficient to make the argument clear and to a point.
Since the CTMU cannot be proven under the traditional scientific method (involving an observer and that which is observed because in the CTMU observer = observed) it proposes to prove itself. Hence the CTMU can be thought of as supertautological; an axiom of choice; or self-proving.
The CTMU defines the universe as the set of all sets.
The universe can also be thought of as the "set of all information". The CTMU brings together all the fields of science in the sense that it blurs all the lines between all the fields to a point where they become indistinguishable. Hence the reason it can be called the "unified field theory".
