Holography and Emergence
holography quantum gravity philosophy of duality theoretical equivalence AdS/CFT gauge theory
2016/6/15
In this paper, I discuss one form of the idea that spacetime and gravity might ‘emerge’ from quantum theory, i.e. via a holographic duality, and in particular via AdS/CFT duality. I begin by giving a ...
Immunity and the emergence of individuality
Immune system individual individuality organism superorganism evolutionary transition major transition symbiosis immunology philosophy of immunology complexity adaptation innate and adaptive immunity
2016/6/15
Since (Buss 1987), it has become clear that individuality is not to be considered as a given, but rather as something which needs to be explained. How has individuality emerged through evolution, and ...
Disappearance and emergence of space and time in quantum gravity
quantum gravity foundations of spacetime theories emergent spacetime condensed matter cosmology
2016/6/15
We discuss the hints for the disappearance of continuum space and time at microscopic scale. These include arguments for a discrete nature of them or for a fundamental non-locality, in a quantum theor...
Emergence,closure and inter-level causation in biological systems
Emergence biological organisation downward causation constraints
2016/6/14
In this paper, we advocate the idea that an adequate explanation of biological systems requires appealing to organisational closure as an emergent causal regime. We first develop a theoretical justifi...
Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking in Quantum Systems:Emergence or Reduction?
Emergence More is Different Symmetry Breaking Earman's Principle
2016/6/14
Beginning with Anderson (1972), spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) in infinite quantum systems is often put forward as an example of (asymptotic) emergence in physics, since in theory no finite syste...
The emergence of spacetime in quantum theories of gravity
spacetime quantum gravity emergence
2016/6/13
This is the introduction to the special issue of Studies in the History and Philosophy of Modern Physics on the emergence of spacetime in quantum theories of spacetime.
Quantum mechanics,strong emergence and ontological non-reducibility
Interpretation of quantum mechanics emergence downward causation
2016/6/13
We show that a new interpretation of quantum mechanics, in which the notion of event is defined without reference to measurement or observers, allows to construct a quantum ontology based on systems, ...
Collision of Traditions.The Emergence of Logical Empiricism Between the Riemannian and Helmholtzian Traditions
Bernhard Riemann Hermann von Helmholtz Logical Empiricis Philosophical Interpretations of the Theory of Relativity Epistemology of Geometry
2016/6/13
This paper attempts to explain the emergence of the logical empiricist philosophy of space and time as a collision of mathematical traditions.The historical development of the ``Riemannian'' and ``Hel...
Reduction,Emergence and Renormalization
Ernest Nagel reduction emergence quantum field theory renormalization Dyson’s criterion renormalization group
2016/6/12
In previous work, I described several examples combining reduction and emergence: where reduction is understood a la Ernest Nagel, and emergence is understood as behaviour or properties that are novel...
Many discussions of emergence focus on the putatively irreducible causal powers of emergents. I argue that the question of whether emergents are irreducible causes should be postponed in favor of the ...
A dilemma for the emergence of spacetime in canonical quantum gravity
spacetime emergence quantum geometrodynamics loop quantum gravity quantum superposition quantum entanglement non-separability structural realism local beables
2016/5/30
The procedures of canonical quantization of the gravitational field apparently lead to entities for which any interpretation in terms of spatio-temporal localization or spatio-temporal extension seems...
Emergence in Effective Field Theories
emergence effective field theory quantum field theory
2016/5/27
This essay considers the extent to which a concept of emergence can be associated with Effective Field Theories (EFTs). I suggest that such a concept can be characterized by microphysicalism and novel...
Complex emergence and the living organization:an epistemological framework for biology
autopoiesis biological autonomy complex emergence downward causation organization pattern generation
2016/5/27
In this article an epistemological framework is proposed in order to integrate the emergentist thought with systemic studies on biological autonomy, which are focused on the role of organization. Part...
On emergence in gauge theories at the 't Hooft limit
Emergence gauge theories the 't Hooft limit quantum chromodynamics supersymmetry planarity integrability
2016/5/27
Quantum field theories are notoriously difficult to understand, physically as well as philosophically. The aim of this paper is to contribute to a better conceptual understanding of gauge quantum fiel...
Emergence of Self-Organized Symbol-Based Communication in Artificial Creatures

2015/7/28
In this paper, we describe a digital scenario where we simulated the emergence of self-organized symbol-based communication among artificial creatures inhabiting a virtual world of unpredictable pred...
