Chaotic dynamics in biological information processing: A heuristic outline

Summary A given but otherwise random environmental time series impinging on the input of a certain biological processor passes through with overwhelming probability practically undetected. A very small percentage of environmental stimuli, though, is ?captured? by the processor's nonlinear dissipative operator asinitial conditions, that is, assolutions of the processor's dissipative dynamics. The processor, then, is in such cases instrumental in compressing or abstracting those stimuli, thereby making the external world to collapse from a previous regime of a ?pure state? of suspended animation onto a set of stable eigenfunctions or ?categories?—chaotic strange attractors. The characteristics of this cognitive set depend on the operator involved and the hierarchical level where the abstraction takes place. In this paper we model the physics of such a cognitive process and the role that the thalamo-cortical pacemaker of the (human) brain plays in both stimulating the individual attractors and permutating them on a time division multiplexing basis. A synthesis of the Markovian processes taking place within each individual attractor-memory and the Markovian or semi-Markovian process involving the intermittent jumping among the different attractor-memories are discussed.

Riassunto Una data ma casuale serie temporale ambientale che influisce sull'immissione di un determinato processore biologico passa con schiacciante probabilità praticamente inosservata. Una piccolissima percentuale di stimoli ambientali, tuttavia, è catturata dall'operatore dissipativo non lineare del processore comecondizioni iniziali, cioè comesoluzioni della dinamica dissipativa del processore. Il processore è quindi, in tali casi, strumentale nel comprimere o estrarre quegli stimoli, facendo perciò collassare il mondo esterno da un precedente regime di ?stato puro? ad animazione sospesa ad un gruppo di autofunzioni stabili o ?categorie?—attrattori caotici strani. Le caratteristiche di questo gruppo cognitivo dipendono dall'operatore coinvolto e dal livello gerarchico in cui l'estrazione ha luogo. In questo lavoro si modella la fisica di tale processo cognitivo e il ruolo che lo stimolatore talamo-corticale del cervello (umano) ha sia nello stimolare gli attrattori individuali che nel permutarli su una base che manda segnali multiplex a divisione temporale. Si discute una sintesi dei processi markoviani che hanno luogo all'interno di ogni attrattore-memoria individuale e il processo markoviano o semimarkoviano che interessa il salto intermittente tra i diversi attrattori-memoria.

Резюме Временная последовательность на входе некоторого биологического процессора может иметь практически недетектируемую вероятность. Очень небольшой процент стимулов окружающей среды ?захватывается? нелинейным диссипативным оператором процессора как начальные условия, т.е. представляется как решение диссипативпой динамики процессора. Затем процессор обрабатывает внешние стимулы, вынуждая внешний мир коллапсировать из предыдущего режима ?чистого состояния? приостановленного оживления в систему собственных функций или ?категорий?. Характеристики зтой познавательной системы зависят от используемого оператора и иерархического уровня, на котором происходит абстрагирование. В зтой статье мы моделируем физику такого познавательного процесса. Обсуждается синтез марковских процессов, происходящий внутри отдельного злемента ?атрактор-память?, и марковский или полумарковский процесс, включающий пережежающиеся прыжки между различными злементами ?атракторпамять?.

     

Radiative frequency shift without ultraviolet divergency in a two-level hydrogenic atom

Summary By taking into account the retardation effects a finite result for the frequency shift of the Lyman α-radiation from a two-level hydrogenic atom is obtained. This result shows a nonnegligible correction as compared to previous results obtained in the dipole approximation with a cut-off frequency.     

On the structure of split Leibniz triple systems

We study the structure of arbitrary split Leibniz triple systems with a coherent 0-root space. By developing techniques of connections of roots for this kind of triple systems, under certain conditions, in the case of T being of maximal length, the simplicity of the Leibniz triple systems is characterized.     

Fixed point theorems of random set-valued mappings and their applications

In this paper, first we show several new random fixed point theorems for random set-valued mappings and for a system of random set-valued mappings. Then, some applications of our results are given for the existence and uniqueness of random solution for a system of nonlinear random integral and differential equations. Our theorems improved and generalize many recent findings in [4–7, 9, 11–17].

Hyperfine structure in Iodine at the 612-nm and 640-nm helium-neon laser wavelengths

The hyperfine structure of iodine-127 at 612 nm and 640 nm is observed by saturated absorption in a gas cell placed within a He-Ne laser cavity modified to operate at these wavelengths. At 612 nm, all the 21 components of the strong R 47 9-2 line lie within the laser gain profile, and the resulting saturated absorption peaks have a contrast of 10% at a gas pressure of 3 Pa.
