Abstract

There are numerous indications that Physics, at its foundations, is algebraic Number Theory, starting with solid state physics evidence in the context of the universal model of Quantum Computing and Digital World Theory. Bohr's Model for the Hydrogen atom is the starting point of a quantum computing model on serial-parallel graphs is provided as the quantum system affording the partition function of the Riemann Gas / Primon model. The propagator of the corresponding discrete Path Integral formalism is a fermionic Riemann zeta function value "closely" related to the experimental value of the fine structure constant of QED. The Kleinian geometry of the primary finite fields unravels a rich structure of the set of prime numbers, and logic reasoning as well as quark masses lead to the conjecture that Fermat primes correspond to quarks.
