Complexity

Complexity characterises the behaviour of a system or model whose components interact in multiple ways and follow local rules, leading to nonlinearity, randomness, collective dynamics, hierarchy, and emergence. The term is generally used to characterize something with many parts where those parts interact with each other in multiple ways, culminating in a higher order of emergence greater than the sum of its parts. The study of these complex linkages at various scales is the main goal of complex systems theory. The intuitive criterion of complexity can be formulated as follows: a system would be more complex if more parts could be distinguished, and if more connections between them existed. Science as of 2010 takes a number of approaches to characterizing complexity; Zayed et al.reflect many of these. Neil Johnson states that "even among scientists, there is no unique definition of complexity – and the scientific notion has traditionally been conveyed using particular examples..." Ultimately Johnson adopts the definition of "complexity science" as "the study of the phenomena which emerge from a collection of interacting objects". (Wikipedia).

The chaotic complexity of natural numbers | Data structures in Mathematics Math Foundations 175

This is a sobering and perhaps disorienting introduction to the fact that arithmetic with bigger numbers starts to look quite different from the familiar arithmetic that we do with the small numbers we are used to. The notion of complexity is key in our treatment of this. We talk about bot

Ximena Fernández 7/20/22: Morse theory for group presentations and the persistent fundamental group

Discrete Morse theory is a combinatorial tool to simplify the structure of a given (regular) CW-complex up to homotopy equivalence, in terms of the critical cells of discrete Morse functions. In this talk, I will present a refinement of this theory that guarantees not only a homotopy equiv
