Biology is a constructive physics (1804.10518v4)

Published 26 Apr 2018 in q-bio.PE, cond-mat.stat-mech, cs.IT, and math.IT

Abstract: Yuri Manin's approach to Zipf's law (Kolmogorov complexity as energy) is applied to investigation of biological evolution. Model of constructive statistical mechanics where complexity is a contribution to energy is proposed to model genomics. Scaling laws in genomics are discussed in relation to Zipf's law. This gives a model of Eugene Koonin's Third Evolutionary Synthesis (physical model which should describe scaling in genomics).
