Five Questions on Complexity
1. Why did you begin working with complex systems? I have been interested by all forms of complexity and self-organization since my childhood. I was always a keen observer of nature, being fascinated by complex phenomena such as ants walking apparently randomly across a branch, the cracks that would appear in drying mud, or the frost crystals that would form on grass during winter nights. As an...
متن کاملFive Questions on Epistemic Logic
My work on epistemic logic developed from my research in artificial intelligence. My formal education in mathematics and my interests in philosophy and linguistics led me to Richard Montague’s synthesis of a formal grammar with an intensional semantics based on Kripke’s possible worlds. Around the same time, however, my readings in psycholinguistics showed that young children learn to use modal...
متن کاملFive Questions on Prion Diseases
Prion diseases are characterized by deposition of PrP, a misfolded and aggregated isoform of the host-encoded cellular prion protein (PrP), within the central nervous system (CNS) and other organs. Here we review the current knowledge on five issues relevant to prion diseases: (1) how do prions enter the body, (2) how do prions reach the central nervous system, (3) how do prions damage the CNS,...
متن کاملFive Questions on Complexity: Responses
From this perspective, one can see the recent history of complex systems as two sides of the same coin. The first side was the discovery that simple systems can appear random (and high dimensional), even when consisting only of low-dimensional, but nonlinear coupled components (aka “deterministic chaos”). Despite our intuitively negative reaction to unpredictability, deterministic chaos was gre...
متن کاملFive Questions
I’ve always been torn between studying physics and studying computer science, but it was the theoretical aspects of both that attracted me the most. There’s clearly overlap in the computational physics arena, but I found that coming up with good numerical approximations to systems wasn’t really to my taste. It was only when I began studying information theory that I came to understand that ther...
