Titel: Diversity in physics: A personal experience in the Mexican context (DIPHER)

Abstract:
The celebrated Hermann Haken pursued and placed the foundations for synergetics theory and thus for the so-called grey theory. When applied to society in sciences, diversity appears as the backbone of any scientific community. Also, in the celebrated visionary article by the late Ettore Majorana: The value of statistical laws in physics and social science , fundamental questions arise to feed critical cornerstones in criticality theory and complexity sciences. It means that from many corners on earth, the concept of diversity has been an itching feature in society, regardless of the human spectrum. In this lecture I rely on such contributions to interrogate about a social category as part of the diversity in sciences and beyond. From Majorana and Haken theories one can raise the hypothesis that talent and intelligence are statistically evenly distributed in society. It is suggested, then, that talent and intelligence as human features prompt diversity in even maner across the human spectrum.
