Emergent effects of complex systems are, broadly speaking, phenomena present in the system that are not shared by and cannot be explained by an understanding or considerations of the system’s ...

Although many chemists are no strangers to complicated molecular structures, they are less familiar with complex systems and emergent phenomena. Bruce C. Gibb suggests that teamwork is the best ...

Neurobiological emergentism” explains how sentience—the subjective feeling aspects of consciousness—developed in ancient animals that evolved the first complex neural systems.

However, recent research in quantum gravity suggests that spacetime may not be a fundamental entity but rather an emergent phenomenon. This shift in understanding challenges traditional views of ...

Emergent phenomena exhibit novel properties that arise naturally from the interactions of simpler components within a complex system. These properties cannot be fully reduced to the system’s ...

His research shows that many of the current claims of emergence appear to be the result of a skewed way of measuring the phenomenon. If our methods for detecting emergent abilities are flawed ...
