Abstract. Symmetry is powerful because it is asymmetry's twin. They are equal and opposite, yin and yang. In this talk, we trace back to the empty relation/null transformation as the origin of symmetry and asymmetry, and present symmetrical and asymmetrical characteristics in Bioinformatics at many levels of organization ranging from genetic code, DNA replications, protein building blocks amino acids, individual cells, through organs, to entire body-shapes. We illustrate that the presence of symmetry enables the ease and efficiency of live formation and the role of asymmetry is to enable evolution and adaptation to take place.  Furthermore, we pointed out that the phenomenon of symmetry breaking lies at the heart of most of our understanding of pattern formation. As a universal principle, symmetry breaking originates information, and is essential for cell movement, polarity, and developmental patterning. We conclude that symmetry and asymmetry intertwines via a motion of symmetry breaking…

Keynote Speech: 2n-dimensional hyperbolic numbers in bioinformatics and algebraic biology

Speaker: S.V. Petoukhov, Prof., Dr. Sci. (Mechanical Engineering Research Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia)
Time: 9:30-10:10, October 2, 2019
Location: “Amethyst” conference hall of Moscow Salut Hotel

Abstract. The lecture is devoted to problems of a grammar of biology and using multidimensional numbers in bioinformatics and algebraic biology. Thematic applications of 2-dimensional hyperbolic (double) numbers and their algebraic 2n-dimensional extensions are described. Mathematical properties of hyperbolic numbers and their matrix representations are considered in a connection with alphabets of DNA nucleobases, with inherited phyllotaxis phenomena and with the Weber-Fechner law. New methods of algebraic analysis of the harmony of musical works are proposed, taking into account the innate predisposition of people to music. Known data on using hyperbolic rotations in physics and in some biological phenomena, including phyllotaxis laws and structural features of locomotions are discussed. On the basis of study results the hypothesis is put forward that alphabets of eigenvectors of matrix representations of basis units of 2n-dimensional hyperbolic numbers play a key role in transmitting biological information and that they can be considered as a foundation of coding information at different levels of biological organization. This hierarchial system of algebraic alphabets is considered as a possible system of pra-alphabets for various genetic and other biological languages. Applications of hyperbolic numbers reveal hidden interrelations between structures of different biological and physical phenomena. They lead to new approaches in mathematical modeling genetic phenomena and innate biological structures. The presented theme is associated with a famous slogan by Pythagoras: "Numbers rule the world".
