Re: On natural selection of the laws of nature, Occam's razor and The Simplest Model
In Peirce's *Evolutionary love *there were also *anancasticism*, and *agapasticism*. "Three modes of evolution have thus been brought before us: evolution by fortuitous variation, evolution by mechanical necessity, and evolution by creative love. We may term them *tychastic* evolution, or *tychasm*, *anancastic* evolution, or *anancasm*, and *agapastic* evolution, or *agapasm*. The doctrines which represent these as severally of principal importance we may term *tychasticism*, *anancasticism*, and *agapasticism*. On the other hand the mere propositions that absolute chance, mechanical necessity, and the law of love are severally operative in the cosmos may receive the names of *tychism*, *anancism*, and *agapism*." -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.

On natural selection of the laws of nature, Occam's razor and The Simplest Model
Greetings, I seek advice or any other help available regarding creating a specific mathematical model. It’s origin is at the intersection of the following areas: - fundamental physics (a bit), - the theory of evolution (a lot), - metaphysics (a lot), - foundations of mathematics (should be a lot). The problem I’m trying to solve can be described as to *create the simplest model possible in which the evolution of the laws of nature arises from the natural selection of structures*. This approach implies indeterminism and postulates random and spontaneous nature of some events. It is also assumed that the universe had the beginning (the first moment of existence). This task is meant to provide the tychism doctrine by Charles Peirce with a mathematically accurate dynamic model.
