  1. Nonlinear synthesis and co‐evolution of complex systems.Helena Knyazeva & Sergei P. Kurdyumov - 2001 - World Futures 57 (3):239-261.
    Today a change is imperative in approaching global problems: what is needed is not arm-twisting and power politics, but searching for ways of co-evolution in the complex social and geopolitical systems of the world. The modern theory of self-organization of complex systems provides us with an understanding of the possible forms of coexistence of heterogeneous social and geopolitical structures at different stages of development regarding the different paths of their sustainable co-evolutionary development. The theory argues that the evolutionary channel to (...)

  2. Nonlinear Field Pumping and Multiscale Coherence in Biological Quantum States.Jenny Lorraine Nielsen & Jack Sarfatti - manuscript
    Biological systems operate far from thermodynamic equilibrium, continuously exchanging energy and information with their environments. We propose that quantum coherence in biological matter is not a fragile artifact of isolation but an emergent property of nonlinear energy flow. Through parametric field pumping, classical nonequilibrium oscillations act as phase-selective amplifiers, converting decoherence into constructive interference. Three experimentally accessible mechanisms—Frohlich dipolar condensation, ion-field self-locking, and electromagnetic waveguiding—form a hierarchical coherence network sustained by metabolic energy. We develop a Lagrangian field formalism showing that (...)

  4. Nonlinear effects of spatial connectedness implicate hierarchically structured representations in visual working memory.Błażej Skrzypulec & Adam Chuderski - 2020 - Journal of Memory and Language 113:104124.
    Five experiments investigated the role of spatial connectedness between a pair of objects presented in the change detection task for the actual capacity of visual working memory (VWM) in healthy young adults (total N = 405). Three experiments yielded a surprising nonlinear relationship between the proportion of pair-wise connected objects and capacity, with the highest capacity observed for homogenous displays, when either all objects were connected or disjointed. A drop in capacity, ranging from an average of a quarter of an (...)

  6. The complex nonlinear thinking: Edgar Morin's demand of a reform of thinking and the contribution of synergetics.Helena Knyazeva - 2004 - World Futures 60 (5 & 6):389 – 405.
    Main principles of the complex nonlinear thinking which are based on the notions of the modern theory of evolution and self-organization of complex systems called also synergetics are under discussion in this article. The principles are transdisciplinary, holistic, and oriented to a human being. The notions of system complexity, nonlinearity of evolution, creative chaos, space-time definiteness of structure-attractors of evolution, resonant influences, nonlinear and soft management are here of great importance. In this connection, a prominent contribution made to system (...)

  7. Nonlinear Entropy, Feedback Loops, and Thresholds: A Framework for the Universal Law of Balance in Nature.Angelito Malicse - manuscript
    Abstract -/- Entropy, a measure of disorder or energy dispersion, often evolves nonlinearly within complex systems. Such behavior, combined with feedback loops and threshold-induced tipping points, can lead to abrupt and irreversible transitions. This paper connects these well-established phenomena to a proposed “universal law of balance in nature,” which asserts that decisions and processes must preserve systemic equilibrium to avoid catastrophic imbalance. We explore how nonlinear entropy dynamics inform this balance and outline implications for leadership, environmental management, and systemic resilience. (...)

    This study considers the problem of using approximate way for realizing the neural supervisor for nonlinear multivariable systems. The Nonlinear Autoregressive-Moving Average (NARMA) model is an exact transformation of the input-output behavior of finite-dimensional nonlinear discrete time dynamical organization in a hoodlum of the equilibrium state. However, it is not convenient for intention of adaptive control using neural networks due to its nonlinear dependence on the control input. Hence, quite often, approximate technique are used for realizing the neural supervisor to (...)

    To improve the riding performance and levitation stability of a high‐speed magnetic levitation (maglev) train, a control strategy based on mixed H 2/H4 with regional pole placement and model‐reference controllers are proposed. First, the nonlinear maglev train model is established, then the proposed system is designed to observe the movement of a suspension frame and a control strategy based on mixed H 2/H4 with regional pole placement and model‐reference control method are proposed.

  14. The Mathematics of CODES: Prime-Driven Resonance, Nonlinear Phase-Locking, and the Topology of Emergent Systems.Devin Bostick - manuscript
    This paper establishes the mathematical foundation of CODES (Chirality of Dynamic Emergent Systems), introducing a unifying framework for structured emergence across disciplines. We formalize prime-driven resonance equations, a novel class of nonlinear phase-locking dynamics, and a generalized coherence metric to quantify system stability across physical, biological, and cognitive domains. By extending harmonic analysis, prime number theory, and topological invariants, we propose a universal resonance function that governs the transition from stochastic disorder to structured order. This framework: • Resolves fundamental paradoxes (...)

    The Cosmic Environ-Cycle Theory: A Tenson-Based Redefinition of Nonlinear Cosmogenesis.Ryusho Nemoto - manuscript
    The traditional cosmic evolution paradigm presupposes a linear and temporal progres- sion of the universe. In contrast, the Cosmic Environ-Cycle Theory, grounded in the Tenson framework, reinterprets cosmogenesis as a recursive and self-renewing process of energy–information circulation. By merging the conservation of resonant tensors with G¨ odel-type incompleteness, this theory establishes a non-linear dynamical foundation that bridges cosmic, biological, and conscious emergence.

  19. The Resonance Economy: A CODES-Based Framework for Self-Stabilizing Markets, Nonlinear Growth, and the Phase-Locked Dynamics of Wealth Distribution.Devin Bostick - manuscript
    This paper introduces a resonance-driven economic model that fundamentally redefines market behavior by replacing traditional equilibrium-based frameworks with dynamic phase-locking principles derived from CODES (Chirality of Dynamic Emergent Systems). While neoclassical, Keynesian, and game-theoretic models treat economic activity as a function of supply and demand equilibria—subject to inefficiencies, speculation, and boom-bust cycles—this paper proposes that markets are structured by resonance fields rather than stochastic fluctuations. By applying prime-phase economic dynamics, we demonstrate that capital flows, debt cycles, and labor efficiency emerge (...)

But it turned out to be out of the question for the author to restrict himself to these biological and anthropological topics.

    This paper investigates the mechanism of downward causation in emergent systems, proposing the concept of an effective potential as its mathematical formalization from the perspective of lower-level dynamics. In connection with nonlinear dynamical equations, we demonstrate that feedback mechanisms in complex systems are often erroneously reduced to phenomenological models. This reveals a methodological pitfall in physical research: phenomenological models grounded in reductionism may fail to uniquely map onto the intrinsic dynamics of the system. Consequently, we advocate establishing a new paradigm (...)

  25. Structured Resonance Dynamics — Empirical Convergence Map.Devin Bostick - manuscript
    Structured Resonance Dynamics (SRD) presents a deterministic, empirically verified coherence law grounded in the harmonic Phase Alignment Score (PAS_h) and its drift measure ΔPAS_zeta. Using data from thirty-two independent experimental domains, this paper demonstrates that coherence persists precisely when ΔPAS_zeta ≤ ε_drift, with ε_drift scaled by coherence volume as V^(-1/2). Coherence collapse occurs when this bound is exceeded. The framework reconciles phase evolution in magnetostrictive solids, cryogenic permittivity amplification, multimode nonlinear optical processes, Gaussian photonic cluster states, spin–layer locked excitons, superconducting (...)

  26. Spiral Genesis: Gradient Rhythm and the Frequency Architecture of Cosmic Structure.Li Kaisheng & Li Longji - manuscript
    This monograph establishes that spiral structure—from DNA’s double helix to JWST’s high-redshift galactic arms—is not a geometric accident, but the necessary geometric manifestation of a universal four-phase cosmic rhythm. Building on the Energy Quantum Theory (EQT) framework (Li, 2025), we demonstrate that all spirals arise from a single, scale-invariant mechanism: high-frequency energy quanta (f_H \sim 10^{15}–10^{18}\, \text{Hz}) nonlinearly cascade into low-frequency modes (f_L \sim 10^{-8}–10^{-5}\, \text{Hz}), generating a gradient field \nabla \rho(r,\theta) whose interplay with angular momentum conservation produces logarithmic spiral (...)

  28. XFEL Femtosecond Experiments and Microscopic Gradient Flows: Experimental Validation of Energy Quantum Theory.Li Kaisheng & Li Longji - manuscript
    This work demonstrates how X-ray Free-Electron Laser (XFEL) experiments provide the first direct laboratory validation of the microscopic dynamical mechanisms of Energy Quantum Theory (EQT). Rather than proposing a new interpretation of quantum phenomena, we show that existing XFEL data—on ultrafast charge redistribution in graphene, Coulomb explosion in gold nanoclusters, and electron thermalization in water plasmas—are quantitatively consistent with EQT’s core dynamical equation: \[ \frac{\partial \rho}{\partial t} + \nabla \cdot \mathbf{J} = k \rho^2 - \Gamma + S_{\text{pump}}, \] where (...) (\(k \rho^2\)), dissipation (\(\Gamma\)), and pump-driven source terms (\(S_{\text{pump}}\)) govern the evolution of the energy quantum density field \(\rho(\mathbf{r}, t, f)\). Crucially, EQT reinterprets these phenomena not as particle collisions or perturbative scattering, but as **real-time transitions among three dynamical states**: free, bound, and condensed—each defined by the local energy quantum density relative to a frequency-dependent background. We show that the observed 20-fs coherence times, delayed ion explosion, and density fluctuation amplitudes emerge naturally from this framework. Moreover, we derive three testable predictions for next-generation XFEL facilities (LCLS-II, European XFEL, ELI): (1) direct imaging of an **electron density void** (~0.1 nm, ~20 fs) due to \(\rho(f_e) < \rho_0(f_e)\); (2) real-time tracking of **bound-to-condensed-state transitions** via attosecond ARPES–X-ray scattering coincidence; and (3) a sharp **nonlinear threshold** in scattering intensity when \(I_{\text{pump}}\) exceeds a frequency-dependent critical intensity \(I_c \propto f^2\). By grounding EQT’s process ontology in femtosecond experimental reality, this work transforms a philosophical framework into a falsifiable, predictive physical theory. (shrink)

    The heuristic value of synergetic models of evolving and self-organizing complex systems as well as their application to epistemological problems is shown in this paper. Nonlinear synergetic models turn out to be fruitful in comprehending epistemological problems such as the nature of human creativity, the functioning of human intuition and imagination, the historical development of science and culture. In the light of synergetics creative thinking can be viewed as a selforganization and self-completion of images and thoughts, filling up gaps in (...)

    Dynamic Rigidity and the Mass Gap in Four–Dimensional Yang–Mills Theory.Ryusho Nemoto - manuscript
    We present an analytic resolution of the mass gap problem for four–dimensional Yang–Mills theory based on a dynamic rigidity principle intrinsic to the gauge field evolution. Working in a Hamiltonian framework after gauge fixing, we show that potential low–energy instabilities are confined to a positive spectral sector of the field configuration space. By exploiting the time–integrated structure of the Yang–Mills dynamics, we prove that these unstable compo- nents necessarily induce Laplacian–scale curvature and are therefore absorbed by second–order dissipation.

    Emergent Wavefunction Collapse from a Closed Variational Principle.Edoardo Livolsi - manuscript
    In standard quantum mechanics, wavefunction collapse is introduced as an external postulate, incompatible with unitary dynamics and lacking a physical mechanism. This unresolved dichotomy lies at the core of the measurement problem. In this work, we show that wavefunction collapse can instead emerge dynamically from a closed, nonlinear variational framework, without introducing additional axioms, stochastic processes, or observer-dependent rules. Within the Universal Ψ variational principle, quantum states correspond to metastable configurations constrained by global coherence conditions. Superpositions are shown to be (...)

    Emotion is conscious experience. It is the affective aspect of consciousness. Emotion arises from sensory stimulation and is typically accompanied by physiological and behavioral changes in the body. Hence an emotion is a complex reaction pattern consisting of three components: a physiological component, a behavioral component, and an experiential (conscious) component. The reactions making up an emotion determine what the emotion will be recognized as. Three processes are involved in generating an emotion: (1) identification of the emotional significance of a (...)

    Conflict as Phase Transition: A Dynamical Systems Theory of Escalation in Coupled Organizational Networks.Boris Kriger - 2005 - Zenodo.
    This paper proposes that conflict escalation is not a property of individuals but a phase transition in coupled networks—occurring when the spectral radius of interpersonal coupling exceeds aggregate decay. Drawing on nonlinear dynamics and network science, we formalize organizational conflict as a transmissible quantity propagating through social structures, mathematically analogous to epidemic dynamics. The framework generates a central prediction: in certain network configurations, escalation becomes structurally inevitable regardless of who initiates. This removes moral personalization from conflict analysis and redirects attention (...)

    This book establishes the detection theory of the Energy Quantum Theory (EQT), systematically proposing that observation is not passive recording but active participation in the energy quantum density field \rho(\mathbf{r}, t, f). Building on the three core postulates—(Postulate I: the Frequency Partitioning Postulate), (Postulate II: the Gradient Flow Postulate), and (Postulate III: the Non-cumulative Emergence Postulate)—it demonstrates that all measurement arises from co-evolutionary dynamics between detector and target, where the detector itself is a localized condensed state of \rho. -/- This (...)

At the core of the theory is the Keefer Feedback Equation, a differential law which models the balance between driving energy input and resistive entropic pressure. This structure ensures that system growth remains bounded, naturally suppresses divergences, and leads all trajectories toward stable attractor states without requiring external fine-tuning. -/- The approach generalizes classical dynamical equations, including (...)

    We show that the Nielsen-Sarfatti (2025) nonlinear field pumping formalism—unifying Fröhlich dipolar condensation, parametric amplification, and Beltrami-Double Hopf turbulence—embeds naturally into Autopoietic Stochastic Differential Geometry (ASDG) on the 112-dimensional E₇-symmetric manifold ℳ₁₁₂. ASDG is a mathematical framework for dynamics on quaternionic-Kähler manifolds combining symplectic, dissipative, and stochastic flows. The Universal Master Equation (UME) is the minimalform equation within ASDG capable of expressing any well-posed dynamical problem. The construction proceeds from five explicit mathematical assumptions—rigged Hilbert space, symplectic-metric-stochastic compatibility, quartic threshold structure, (...)

  43. Function-coherent Gambles with Non-Additive Sequential Dynamics.Gregory Wheeler - 2025 - Proceedings of Machine Learning Research 290:258-268.
    The desirable gambles framework provides a rigorous foundation for imprecise probability theory but relies heavily on linear utility via its coherence axioms. In our related work, we introduced function-coherent gambles to accommodate non-linear utility. However, when repeated gambles are played over time---especially in intertemporal choice where rewards compound multiplicatively---the standard additive combination axiom fails to capture the appropriate long-run evaluation. In this paper we extend the framework by relaxing the additive combination axiom and introducing a nonlinear combination operator that effectively (...)

    Causal Mechanisms of Stability, Phase Transitions, and Collapse in Complex Self-Regulating Systems: Distinguishability and Uncertainty as the Basis of Dynamics.Alena Petina - manuscript
    This paper proposes an architectural approach to the analysis of complex self-regulating systems aimed at resolving the gap between the registration of empirical effects and the understanding of causal mechanisms underlying system stability, transitions, and breakdown. -/- The model introduces distinguishability as a fundamental structural condition of system existence and dynamics. System regimes, phase transitions, phase windows, adaptive stability, tension-based fixation, and disorganization are interpreted as different modes of preserving, processing, or losing distinguishability over time. -/- The proposed framework operates (...)

  45. Complexity Reality and Scientific Realism.Avijit Lahiri - manuscript
    We introduce the notion of complexity, first at an intuitive level and then in relatively more concrete terms, explaining the various characteristic features of complex systems with examples. There exists a vast literature on complexity, and our exposition is intended to be an elementary introduction, meant for a broad audience. -/- Briefly, a complex system is one whose description involves a hierarchy of levels, where each level is made of a large number of components interacting among themselves. The time evolution (...)

  47. A Political Paradigm of Natural Civilization: Sun Shuao.Charles X. Yang - manuscript
    中文摘要: 孙叔敖,作为楚国春秋时期的贤相,被历史记忆为兼具仁德、务实、生态智慧与非侵略性政治气质的典范。他不是以功名治国,而是以天性之善;不是以权术谋政,而是以自然法则维系国家秩序。本文以“自然文明”与《老子》 哲学为理论基础,提出“自然政治范式”(Natural Governance Paradigm)概念,试图重新定位孙叔敖在中国政治思想史中的地位,展示其治国理念与现代系统论、生态治理、非线性政治模型的深度互补关系。本文采用跨学科方法,结合哲学、政治学、系统科学与生态文明研究,以 三段式学术论文结构完成全景式论述。本文也将孙叔敖置于“老-杨创世纪宇宙观”框架下,视为最接近“道法自然”政治模式的人类实践者之一。 Abstract : Sun Shuao, the eminent prime minister of the State of Chu in the Spring and Autumn period, stands as one of the most remarkable embodiments of non-aggressive, ecologically attuned, and naturally grounded governance in early Chinese history. He governed not through ambition but through innate virtue; not through manipulation but through alignment with natural laws. This paper, grounded in Laozi’s philosophy and the theoretical construct of “natural civilization,” advances the concept of a “Natural Governance (...)

  48. Psychological Development and Reorganization as Coherence Dynamics.Erik Axelkrans - manuscript
    Psychological development is commonly described in terms of stages, traits, or norma- tive endpoints, yet such frameworks often lack generative explanations for nonlinearity, regression, and individual variability. This paper advances a structural and dynami- cal account of psychological development grounded in coherence-constrained state-space geometry. Rather than presupposing developmental stages or idealized forms, develop- ment is modelled as time-extended trajectories shaped by coherence maintenance, path dependence, and evolving integrative constraints. Within this framework, developmental change emerges from the accumulation of co- (...)

  49. Dao Must Be the Milky Way: A Scientific-Philosophical Study Based on the Lao–Yang Genesis Cosmology.Charles X. Yang - manuscript
    Based on the Lao–Yang Genesis Cosmology, this paper systematically demonstrates the scientific-philosophical proposition that Dao corresponds to the Milky Way. It aims to unify the classical Daoist generative logic with modern astronomy, thermodynamics, and systems science. By analyzing Dao’s non-personal, non-teleological, and non-material characteristics, the study identifies the Milky Way as the scientific entity realizing Dao’s generative law, providing necessary constraints for the formation of the Solar System, Earth, and life. Integrating the second law of thermodynamics and entropy increase, the (...)

  50. Radical embodied cognitive science and “Real Cognition”.Guilherme Sanches de Oliveira, Vicente Raja & Anthony Chemero - 2019 - Synthese 198 (Suppl 1):115-136.
    A persistent criticism of radical embodied cognitive science is that it will be impossible to explain “real cognition” without invoking mental representations. This paper provides an account of explicit, real-time thinking of the kind we engage in when we imagine counter-factual situations, remember the past, and plan for the future. We first present a very general non-representational account of explicit thinking, based on pragmatist philosophy of science. We then present a more detailed instantiation of this general account drawing on nonlinear (...)
