Is There a Definition of Weak Emergence?
Christian Wigand: I would like to offer up to the world yet another definition of emergence that is as broad as possible. The paradigm that I have in mind is pretty clear, but I will confess that the details are not completely clear, at least to me. What exactly that sense is is difficult to pinpoint, but that's what makes the system complex because you know, it gives rise to unpredictability and things like that. It gives rise to power law behaviors rather than a naive application of the central limit theorem or something.
