An interpretation of intelligence based on mathematical integration of elementary mechanisms in biology

Although it is more and more well accepted that modeling is a help for experimental biology, little is known about how to integrate physiological processes in general. The fact that no general theory exist in biology has big consequences, the most important being the difficulty to integrate biological phenomena. 1 will present a solution for the three dependent following issues: i) in an appropriate theoretical framework, integration consists in coupling models that each describe physiological mechanisms (formalization is a necessary condition to integration); ii) a biological theory with its own concepts leads to unifying principles in biology that are different from and complementary to physical principles; iii) such a formalized theory consists in a representation in terms of functional interactions and a specific formalism(S-Propagator). Hence a biological theory is of a topological and geometrical nature, in contrast to physical theories that are of a geometrical nature. An application to the interpretation of intelligence is proposed, based on the "intelligence"of movement.
