  • concept that emerges from different fields of science and mathematics, often contrasted with entropy
  • while entropy is associated with disorder, randomness
    • and the tendency of systems to move towards thermodynamic equilibrium
  • syntropy is linked to the opposite—order, complexity

    • thermodynamics
      • while entropy is a central concept in thermodynamics
      • syntropy isn’t traditionally a thermodynamic quantity
      • however, it has been used in discussions about living systems
      • which seem to locally decrease entropy through processes like metabolism and growth
      • creating order from disorder
    • biology
      • in biological systems, syntropy may describe the processes that lead
      • for example, dna replication, cell differentiation, and the development of organisms
      • can be seen as syntropic processes where order increases

      • these are systems that, instead of degrading into disorder, as entropy would suggest
      • develop increasing levels of complexity and coherence

      • some interpretations of quantum mechanics and theories of time involve syntropy
