Re: [Fis] Season Greetings / Merry Christmas

2017-12-22 Thread Louis H Kauffman
Dear Pedro,
Thank you. This brings back happy memories of a ten week mathematical visit to 
Zaragoza in 1982.
I toured in Southern Spain (saw the Alhambra and more) and lectured to Jose 
Montesinos and his colleagues and students on knot theory for most of the ten 
weeks, daily.
Jose took me north to the mountains and to castles and showed me how to search 
for crystals in the earth.
The course notes became a book “On Knots” and the experience lives with me all 
the time.
Seasons Greetings and 
Very best regards,
Lou Kauffman

Re: [Fis] Social information, Sociotype

2017-12-22 Thread Sungchul Ji
Hi Emanuel, Pedro & Fishers,


Emanuel is rasing an important point.  It is clear that the duality of genetic 
and epigenetic informations is fundamental.  But I think the triadicity of 
genotype, phenotype, and sociotype is as important and fundametnal, if we 
interpret the triadicity to mean that three cannot be reduced to two or one 
just as the duality means that two cannot be reduced to one.  The two 
relations, the fomer irreducibly dyadic and the latter irreducibly tiradic, may 
not be mutually exclusive or contradictory (as they may appear on the surface) 
but reflect different aspects of the information of livign systems -- one 
aspect is irreducibly dyadic and the other is irreducibly triadic, depending on 
how the phenomonon of life is viewed.   We may represent this idea 
diagrammatically as infigure 1 below, which is an elaboration and extension of 
the ITR (Irreducible Triadic Relation) diagram that I used in my previous post:

Dear Pedro, Dear Fises,



I apologize, as usual, for intervening in your respected discussion. But in my 
humble understanding, the genotype-phenotype-sociotype triad is simply a list 
of behavioral forms (or types). Evidently, they all are endorsed and inspired 
by the information that is in the disposal of every living being. But from 
information point of view (and we are busy with information essence quest) only 
two types of information are involved in a living being behavior production: 
genetic information and epigenetic information. That is: vertically exchanged 
inheritance information and horizontally exchanged experience information. 
These two types of information are responsible for the behavior of living 
beings at every known to us level of biological organization: single cell - 
genotype, cell assembly or organism - phenotype, groups of organisms or 
societies - sociotype.

Again, I apologize for invading your discussion, but we are busy with 
information, aren’t we?



Best regards, Emanuel.

[Fis] Season Greetings / Merry Christmas

2017-12-22 Thread Pedro C. Marijuan

Dear FIS Colleagues,

Herewith the customary Christmas scene at El Pilar Basilica of Zaragoza.
It is a really beautiful place that you should visit... I promise not to 
be a bad amphitryon ;)


As for the next sessions, we will have the traditional New Year Lecture, 
and then another two sessions on data-driven science and on 
combinatorial logicsin biological information.


Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

All the best--Pedro
