Need to find an existing dynamical systems theory where: - State is defined as a property of the system, rather than its components (e.g. particles) - State is defined as system organization - State change, or trajectory, is subject to chance variation - State change is nondeterministic, stochastic What about nonlinear dynamics (chaos theory)?	Nonlinear dynamics and chaos Chaos: Aperiodic long-term behavior in a deterministic system that exhibits sensitive dependence on initial conditions Steven Strogatz 1994 Cornell Santa Fe Institute
Nonlinear dynamics checklist - State: property of system? NO. - State: system organization? NO. - Dynamics: Equations of motion. Typically, O/P differential equations - Dynamic constraints: nonlinear, sensitive dependence on initial conditions - Dynamics: stochastic? NO. Compliance: Nonlinear dynamics does not comply with the requirements of organodynamics.	Nonlinear dynamics - Discuss the deterministic nature of “sensitivity to initial conditions”.
