Kinetic formulation of irreversible evolution of the two-nucleus spin systems

open access: yes, 2010
The time irreversible evolution of the two-nucleus spin systems interacting with a magnetic field is analyzed in the framework of the subdynamics theory. The spin systems are determined by the H(1) and C(13) nuclei.

Alignment of the Starlings: Learning With Generative AI

open access: yesFuture Humanities, Volume 4, Issue 1, May 2026.
ABSTRACT I will argue that answers to normative questions concerning the place of generative AI in learning rest on answers to ontological questions regarding (1) precisely what is happening when a human ‘interacts’ with generative AI and (2) What is distinctive about organic learning as opposed to currently existing ‘machine learning’ (3) What is the ...

Principle of trans-subjectivity in Luhmann’s historical methodology

open access: yesRUDN Journal of World History, 2019
This article examines the problem of trans-subjectivity in Niklas Luhmanns historical methodology. Trans-subjectivity, like inter-subjectivity, is understood in the humanities in different ways (N. Lossky, A. Bergson, I. Prigogine and others).

The biological frontier of pattern formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Morphogenetic patterns are highly sophisticated dissipative structures. Are they governed by the same general mechanisms as chemical and hydrodynamic patterns? Turing's symmetry breaking and Wolpert's signalling provide alternative mechanisms.

The Logistic Function in Glass Transition Models of Amorphous Polymers: II. A Theoretical Framework for Isothermal Compression Processes

open access: yesMacromolecular Theory and Simulations, Volume 34, Issue 6, November 2025.
An exactly‐solvable Riccati equation that approximates the macroscopic‐phenomenological behavior of amorphous polymers at glass transition pressure, Pg${P}_{g}$, is derived within thermodynamics with internal state variables. This work confirms the validity of the logistic function in glass transition models of amorphous polymers and establishes a ...

Complexity theory, time series analysis and Tsallis q-entropy principle part one: theoretical aspects

open access: yesJournal of the Mechanical Behavior of Materials, 2017
In this study, we present the highlights of complexity theory (Part I) and significant experimental verifications (Part II) and we try to give a synoptic description of complexity theory both at the microscopic and at the macroscopic level of the ...

The development of non-linear knowledge: New risks, vulnerabilities, and hopes

open access: yesRUDN journal of Sociology, 2018
The article considers the non-linear knowledge as the result of the ‘arrow of time’ effect (I. Prigogine) that determined the new realities in which everything develops increasingly quicker and in a more complex way. The author extends the impact of this

Probability as a physical motive [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Recent theoretical progress in nonequilibrium thermodynamics, linking the physical principle of Maximum Entropy Production ("MEP") to the information-theoretical "MaxEnt" principle of scientific inference, together with conjectures from theoretical ...

Physicochemical Constraints on the Abiotic Polymerization of Nucleotides Into RNA

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract One of the key steps in the origin of life is the polymerization of nucleotides into nucleic acids like RNA. We have quantified the energetic impact of temperature, pressure, and composition on the polymerization of nucleotides into RNA using the Gibbs function. These Gibbs energies have been used to calculate the probability that a nucleotide

Beyond Simplification in Public Sector Accountability: Contradictions Between Principal‐Agent and Complexity Theories

open access: yesPublic Administration Review, Volume 85, Issue 6, Page 1757-1770, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT This conceptual study explores the complexity of public sector accountability, traditionally framed by principal‐agent theory (PAT), which simplifies relationships through rigid contracts. The findings reveal how PAT's assumptions often misalign with the intricate realities of public sector accountability, which are better explained by ...
