چکیده
Dynamics, the study of change, is normally the subject of mechanics. Whether the chosen mechanics is “fundamental” and deterministic or “phenomenological” and stochastic, all changes are described relative to an external time. Here we show that once we define what we are talking about, namely, the system, its states and a criterion to distinguish among them, there is a single, unique, and natural dynamical law for irreversible processes that is compatible with the principle of maximum entropy. In this alternative dynamics changes are described relative to an internal, “intrinsic” time which is a derived, statistical concept defined and measured by change itself. Time is quantified change.

We develop a method to construct algebraic invariants for hypermatrices. We then construct hyperdeterminants and exhibit a generalization of the Cayley–Hamilton theorem for hypermatrices.
