The Heraclitus Theorem: Complexity as a State and System-Dependent Historical Record of Energetic Interaction
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The Heraclitus Theorem introduces a framework defining complexity as a state- and system-dependent historical record of energetic interaction. This equation integrates thermodynamics, information theory, and Assembly Theory into a unified model, describing how complexity accumulates across physical, biological, social, and cognitive systems.
