Hi Michel, Thank you for your informative comments and helpful suggestions in your earlier post (which I happened to have deleted by accident). In any case I have a copy of the post so I can answer your questions raised therein. (1) I am defining the Planckian information, I_P, as the

Dear Karl, Yes I can hear you. About symmetry, I shall soon send you an explaining email, privately, because I do not want to bother the FISers with long explanations (unless I am required to do it). However, I confess that many posts that I receive from the FIS list are very hard to read, and

Dear Michel and Sung, Your discussion is way above my head in the jargon and background knowledge. Please bear with me while a non-mathematician tries to express some observations that regard symmetry. Two almost symmetrical spaces appear as Gestalts, expressed by numbers, if one orders and

Dear Sung, The formula of the Planckian information in Table 1 is intriguing. The argument of the log_2 function was proposed in 1895 by Karl Pearson as a measure of asymmetry of a distribution (see [1], p. 370). In general the mean can be smaller than the mode (so the log cannot exist), but I

Caro Sung e cari tutti, "I think information and energy are inseparable in reality": è vero anche in economia. La Parte Terza--Teoria del valore: energia e informazione-- di "Valore e valutazioni. La scienza dell'economia o l'economia della scienza" (FrancoAngeli, Milano, 1995-1999) è

Hi FISers, I think information and energy are inseparable in reality. Hence to understand what information is, it may be helpful to understand what energy (and the associated concept of motion) is. In this spirit, I am forwarding the following email that I wrote motivated by the lecture
