Role of Interdependence in Nonlinear Systems
Yes, interdependence of inputs is central to nonlinearity. When components interact and depend on each other, feedback loops and mutual influence can greatly amplify small changes. This complex web of interactions means that even a minor adjustment in one input can cascade through the system, producing unexpected and non-proportional outcomes. Thus, it’s the intricate interdependence—not merely a high number of parameters—that drives nonlinear behavior.
