QLS Seminar - TODAY 5 June at 15h00 - "An algebraic approach to the motion of life" by Pablo A. Marquet Iturriaga (Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile)

[Quantitative Life Sciences]

Dear All,

Today, Thursday, 5 June at 15:00 CET, Dr. Rolando Rebolledo (Instituto 
de Ingeniería Matemática, U. de Valparaíso, Chile) will give a seminar 
titled:

*"*An algebraic approach to the motion of life*"

*_Abstract:

_ Motion is a fundamental principle of the living. Flows of energy or 
biomass serve as the fundamental components of motion, whose 
interactions give rise to various events. These flows are not isolated, 
as their surroundings constantly influence them. Thus, the Open System 
Dynamics (OSD) analytic method guides the mathematical modelling of 
these phenomena [1], [2]. OSD finds a suitable representation through 
Stochastic Analysis in both commutative and non-commutative versions. A 
common and simpler approach to these representations is obtained through 
algebraic probability spaces and stochastic dynamics therein, which 
allows to describe basic motion patterns.

This lecture is based on a current joint work with Pablo 
Marquet,/Towards a noncommutative mathematical theory of living systems/.
