Emergence of Autocatalytic Sets in a Simple Model of Technological Evolution
Wim Hordijk, Stuart Kauffman
Two alternative views of an economy are combined and studied. The first view is that of technological evolution as a process of combinatorial innovation. Recently a simple mathemat…
On Quantum Gravity If Non-Locality Is Fundamental
Stuart Kauffman
I take non-locality to be the Michaelson Morley experiment of the 21st Century, assume its universal validity, and try to derive its consequences. Spacetime, with its locality, can…
What Is Consciousness? Artificial Intelligence, Real Intelligence, Quantum Mind, And Qualia
Stuart A. Kauffman, Andrea Roli
We approach the question "What is Consciousness?" in a new way, not as Descartes' "systematic doubt", but as how organisms find their way in their world. Finding one's way involves…
Playing with Casimir in the vacuum sandbox
S. Kauffman, S. Succi, A. Tiribocchi +1
The Casimir effect continues to be a subject of discussion regarding its relationship, or the lack of it, with the vacuum energy of fluctuating quantum fields. In this note, we pro…
Is Brain-Mind Quantum? A theory and supporting evidence
Stuart Kauffman, Dean Radin
We propose a non-substance dualism theory, following Heisenberg: The world consists of both ontologically real possibilities that do not obey Aristotle's Law of the Excluded Middle…
The world is not a theorem
Stuart A. Kauffman, Andrea Roli
The evolution of the biosphere unfolds as a luxuriant generative process of new living forms and functions. Organisms adapt to their environment, exploit novel opportunities that a…
