Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to explore the relations between (a) the random diffusion of an attribute through a population called 'System A,' which is defined by the formula A = ? kqt logg qt and (b) the change in the amount of information, H, (or 'complexity,' 'organization,' or 'uncertainty') in System A, with implications for further research towards unifying basic concepts widely through all the sciences.
