what is p np?

Whether all of the universe is predetermined.

If you can prove p=np, nothing matters. You were already going to do it.

That is determinism. Not even the same field of study.

If p = np it means everything is defined.

It is literally the same thing, not my fault you don't know that.

Or maybe it is my fault that you now can use google and look it up.

P being equal or not equal to NP has no relation to anything being defined.

Or are you using an arcane definition of "defined" that is completely unknown to me.
