On the emergence of natural singularities and state transitions in   living patterns
  As far as human perceptions and rational thinking are concerned, contradictions constitute a non negligible part of our reality. We often refer to these phenomena, in a more informal way, as the chicken or the egg causality dilemma. However, it is not clear whether the chicken or the egg dilemma exists only within the scope of our perceptions, or contradictions have a deeper meaning towards our understanding of reality. Here we argue that if there is an element of reality such that can be adequately described in terms of the chicken or the egg dilemma, then it might lead to a spontaneous symmetry breaking by creating an alternate entity, capable of ultimately separating the chicken from the egg. We propose a formalism to describe such mechanism and discuss how it can be applied to phenomena to describe the natural emergence of singularities and state transitions in living systems.
