Towards a Definition of Emergence
Abstract
Various examples in the real world illustrate the emergence of structure over time. As these examples are quite diverse, e.g. structural assembly of a virus and muscle formation, identifying unifying principles is difficult. The purpose of this work is to investigate the common features of such systems with the goal of developing a systematic classification of properties associated with emergence.
