The Awareness-First Theory: A Coherence Principle Underlying Active Inference and Physical Law [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy
The Free Energy Principle (FEP) and Active Inference provide a unifying variational framework for modelling perception, action, learning, and self-organisation across biological systems.

Carnot and Joule Cycles Implied in Generalized Entropy and Exergy Properties as Fundamentals of Extrema Principles [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy
Thermodynamic laws and principles overarch all domains of physics, chemistry and biology. In this broad perspective, further generalizations with respect to the “state-of-the-art” of current theories are still viable considering all aspects of systems ...

Linear bosonic quantum field theories arising from causal variational principles [PDF]

open access: yesLetters in Mathematical Physics, 2022
It is shown that the linearized fields of causal variational principles give rise to linear bosonic quantum field theories. The properties of these field theories are studied and compared with the axioms of local quantum physics. Distinguished quasi-free

Quantum medicine: A quantum–mechanical framework for redox biology, disease and precision medicine [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine
Background Key biological processes underlying health and disease‐including electron transfer, redox regulation, and radical‐mediated signaling‐are fundamentally governed by quantum‐mechanical principles.

On the Thermodynamics of Self-Organization in Dissipative Systems: Reflections on the Unification of Physics and Biology

open access: yesFluids, 2022
In this paper, we discuss some well-known experimental observations on self-organization in dissipative systems. The examples range from pure fluid flow, pattern selection in fluid–solid systems to chemical-reaction-induced flocking and aggregation in ...

On duality principles and related convex dual formulations suitable for local and global non-convex variational optimization

open access: yesNonlinear Engineering, 2023
This article develops duality principles, a related convex dual formulation and primal dual formulations suitable for the local and global optimization of non convex primal formulations for a large class of models in physics and engineering.

First principles of consistent physics

open access: yes, 2021
For a consistent picture of fundamental physics and cosmology, three first principles are proposed as the foundations. That is, quantum variational principle that provides the formalism, consistent observation principle that set physical constraints and ...

Existence‎ Solution for‎ ‎a Non-smooth System [PDF]

open access: yesMathematics Interdisciplinary Research
‎A variational method for a mixed boundary value problem in mathematical physics is considered‎. ‎Using two-field Lagrange multipliers‎, ‎we would investigate a variational formulation containing a mixed variational problem which is equivalent with a ...
