On an empirical method for identifying the observables involved in dynamical interactions
The text explores when observables in natural system interactions can be directly measured versus when unmeasurable observables influence those interactions, using a formalism that compares different descriptions of the same system
On analogous systems
Rosen argues that the identification of system properties in physics and biology is subjective rather than objective, as universal systems can contain subsystems analogous to any dynamical system
On anticipatory systems- I When can a system contain a predictive model of another?
Anticipatory systems, which use predictive models to inform present actions, are crucial for understanding behavior and forecasting technology, yet lack a formal theory due to their challenge to traditional causality concepts
On anticipatory systems- II The nature of the modelling relation between systems
The text discusses the concept of a modeling relation between systems through equations of state, illustrating its predictive use and formalizing it within category theory using commutative diagrams to express conjugacy relations
On complex systems
The distinction between simple and complex systems is fundamentally qualitative, with complex systems lacking a maximal mathematical description, posing significant challenges for theoretical science, particularly in physics and biology
