"The ability to reduce everything to simple fundamental laws does not imply the possibility to start from those laws and reconstruct the universe. At each level of complexity entirely new properties appear, and the understanding of the new behaviors requires research which I think is as fundamental in its nature as any other."

Big Think quotes Nobel Prize-winning SFI Co-founder Phil Anderson's 1972 paper, "More is Different":

"Symmetry, Thermodynamics and Topology in Active Matter" (by Mark J. Bowick, Nikta Fakhri, M. Cristina Marchetti, Sriram Ramaswamy): https://t.co/1jydNcG4z2

"This article summarizes some of the open questions in the field of active matter…"

"The article does not provide a review of the field, but rather a personal view of the authors, informed by contributions of all participants, on new directions in active matter research."

In 1956, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Prof Claude Shannon writes a one-page article trying to curb the information theory hype https://t.co/bnsX01iwuT

#Review article: "Early warning signals for critical transitions in complex systems"
Sandip V. George, Sneha Kachhara, G. Ambika

https://arxiv.org/abs/2107.01210

In this review, we present the different measures of early warning signals that can indicate the occurrence of critical transitions in complex systems. We start with the mechanisms that trigger critical transitions, how they relate to warning signals and the methods used to detect early warning signals (EWS) for sudden transitions or tipping. We discuss briefly a few applications in real systems in this context, like transitions in ecology, climate and environment, medicine, epidemics, finance and engineering. Towards the end, we mention the issues in detecting EWS in specific applications and our perspective on future trends in this area, especially related to sudden transitions in the dynamics of connected systems on complex networks.

💉 🇷🇺 Sputnik V vaccine is safe and effective

Russia’s Sputnik V sparked controversy when it became the first COVID-19 vaccine to be authorized by any nation, before early-stage trial results had been published. It has since been approved in 67 countries, including Brazil, Hungary, India and the Philippines, but has not yet garnered World Health Organization approval. Mounting evidence from Russia and other countries now suggests that it is safe and effective — but questions remain about the quality of surveillance for possible rare side effects.
