Many natural and engineered dynamical systems, including all living objects, exhibit signatures of what can be called spontaneous dynamical long-range order (DLRO). This order's omnipresence has long been recognized by the scientific community, as evidenced by a myriad of related concepts, theoretical and phenomenological frameworks, and experimental phenomena such as turbulence, $1/f$ noise, dynamical complexity, chaos and the butterfly effect, the Richter scale for earthquakes and the scale…

Topological supersymmetry breaking: The definition and stochastic generalization of chaos and the limit of applicability of statistics
- Physics
- 2014
The concept of deterministic dynamical chaos has a long history and is well established by now. Nevertheless, its field theoretic essence and its stochastic generalization have been revealed only…
Criticality or Supersymmetry Breaking?
- PhysicsSymmetry

A 1D chain of neuron-like elements is studied and it is found that the dynamics in the N-phase is indeed featured by positive stochastic Lyapunov exponents and dominated by (anti)instantonic processes of (creation) annihilation of kinks and antikinks, which can be viewed as predecessors of boundaries of neuroavalanches.

This work proposes a method for stochastic dynamical optimization using the N-phase DSs, which can be viewed as a hybrid of the simulated and chaotic annealing methods and can result in a new generation of hardware devices for efficient solution of various search and/or combinatorial optimization problems.

Chaos is an ubiquitous and fundamental phenomenon with a wide range of features pointing to a similar phenomenology. Although apparently distinct, it is natural to ask if all these features emerge…

TFTs of another type, specifically the gauge-field-less Witten-type TFTs known as topological sigma models, describe the recently proposed digital memcomputing machines (DMMs) - engineered dynamical systems with point attractors being the solutions of the corresponding logic circuit that solves a specific task.
Witten-type topological field theory of self-organized criticality for stochastic neural networks

It is found that, provided the divergence of drift coefficients is small and non-constant, the model of stochastic neural networks is BRST symmetric.

A free energy principle for a particular physics
- Physics

The main contribution is to examine the implications of Markov blankets for self-organisation to nonequilibrium steady-state and recover an information geometry and accompanying free energy principle that allows one to interpret the internal states of something as representing or making inferences about its external states.

It is shown that the path-integral representation of any stochastic or deterministic continuous-time dynamical model is a cohomological or Witten-type topological field theory, i.e., a model with global topological supersymmetry (Q-symmetry), which stands behind spatio-temporal self-similarity of Q-broken phases.

It is discussed that the stochastic expectation values of a DS must be complemented on the TFT side by (-1)(F^), where F^ is the ghost number operator and the role of this inclusion is to unfold the natural path-integral representation of the T FT.

The proposition of this paper suggests that the machinery of W-TFTs may find its applications in many different areas of modern science studying various physical realizations of SOC and suggests that there may in principle exist a connection between some SOC's and the concept of topological quantum computing.
