Stochastic & Chaotic: Examining Evolution

AI Thread Summary
A stochastic process cannot be considered chaotic due to fundamental differences in their properties. Chaotic systems exhibit deterministic solutions governed by Hamiltonian mechanics, while stochastic systems incorporate random variables, leading to non-deterministic outcomes. The transformation of a deterministic Hamiltonian into one that includes random variables is deemed impossible. This distinction highlights the inherent differences between stochastic and chaotic systems in the context of evolution. Understanding these differences is crucial for accurately examining evolutionary processes.

Can we consider a stochastic process being chaotic?

consider evolution of only two particular systems with closed initial states (not ensemble or statistical properties of the system)

Not in general- a 'chaotic' system has specific properties associated with it.
 
The hamiltonian of a stochastic system have a random variable so the solutions of the hamilton equations cannot be deterministic. The hamiltonians of a chaotics systems do not have random variable so the solutions of the hamilton equations are deterministic. You have to transform your deterministic hamiltonian into a hamiltonian with a random variable and I think that is imposible.
 
Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'
I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...
I feel it should be solvable we just need to find a perfect pattern, and there will be a general pattern since the forces acting are based on a single function, so..... you can't actually say it is unsolvable right? Cause imaging 3 bodies actually existed somwhere in this universe then nature isn't gonna wait till we predict it! And yea I have checked in many places that tiny changes cause large changes so it becomes chaos........ but still I just can't accept that it is impossible to solve...
