The monograph applies sophisticated topological symmetry tools to biological applications of information theory, along with a Black–Scholes model invocation of the Data Rate Theorem which links information and control theories. The focus is on statistical mechanics and other models that explore pathological phase transitions — driven by changes in available rates of mitochondrial free energy — in physiological functions, a cutting-edge topic in the study of chronic disease. One of the key focuses is Alzheimer's disease — a relatively simple canonical example.

Contents:

  • Mathematical Preliminaries
  • A Symmetry-Breaking Model
  • A Data Rate Theorem Model
  • A Mutual Information Model
  • A Fragment Size Model
  • Extending the Perspective
  • Embodiment and Environment
  • Chronic Inflammation
  • What is to be Done?
  • Mathematical Appendix

Readership: Graduate students and researchers interested in biological applications of information theory.
Key Features:

  • Significantly extends current thinking on Alzheimer's and related chronic diseases
