Definition
Selection is the third of the fundamental components of The Cycle of Information, the evolutionary engine of Reality, and, at the same time, one of the Operators of Reality acting in the sub-process of Formation of Reality that we call Evolution.
It is the Agent which acts in the Process of Formation of Reality, at any level of Complexity, from the most elementary level where the creative expression of the primary Source produces the Elementary Events, to the whole complexity of the Universe as a whole. It contributes to produce the increasingly complex Processes (Events produced by Sources, organized by Relations) that make up all the Structures, the Systems and the Forms that fill the Universe.
Selection, as an Operator of Reality, produces the survival, or rather the causal permanence, of the Information "compatible with the environment", of the Structures, the Systems and the Forms produced by the whole of interacting local and universal evolutionary Processes.
It is a key mechanism of Evolution. It is an interaction operator that, through the Interaction between the different processes that contribute to the incessant Formation of Reality, produces the permanence or elimination of the (local) processes of events representing Structures, Systems and Forms, Processes that do not adapt to the (universal) Processes of Events that represent the environment. In other terms, Selection ensures the survival or the extinction of the Variations (spatial and (temporal variations) produces by the inner interaction between Agents / Forces and Acted / Fields, the complementary aspects of the Sources.
It produces the permanence or the elimination of the Relations between not (or less) organized (chaotic) events, the permanence or elimination of Information, the regulation of the Complexity of the structure of the Elementary Field, of the Structures, of the Systems, Forms, of the Universe as a whole.
It represents a factor of balance between Organization and Transformation in the evolutionary formation of Reality. Between the pressure to incessantly incorporate new chaotic Events into an evolutionary flow of emerging complexity and the pressure to disorganize the relations between those events, into subsets of events that constitute new raw material for the further action of the Organization towards the creation of new relations, in the infinite Cycle of Information.
This Operator, expression of the Operator Force Relation, exerts a constant pressure toward the interactive dynamical equilibrium between:
- the "chaos towards order, anti-entropic, anabolic, constructive (Organization) and
- the "order towards chaos", entropic, catabolic, destructive (Transformation)
evolutionary processes.
It is the way of expression of the Relational Operator that gives "causal permanence" to Information, the survival of Relations between Events, "effects" that can become in turn "causes", regulating the crescendo of Complexity of Reality and the Universe.

Description
Operator Selection determines the causal permanence of Events, Information, Structures of Information, Forms, Systems in the relation with other Events, Information, Structures, Forms, Systems that make up the Universe, and which represent the "environment".
The action of this operator is embodied in the incessant constructive or destructive Interactions between elementary and complex Events, Information, Structures, Forms.
It is the kind of expression of the Relational Operator that determines the causal destruction, conservation, transformation of the patterns of Relations between Events.
It therefore determines the causal permanence of Information, and at the complex levels of Structures and Forms it determines the causal permanence of the Forms themselves, which produce new effects in an incessant interaction.
Third functional of the Level of Information and output element of the related metabolic cycle (The Cycle of Information). Together with Organization and Transformation, it carries out the adaptation processes that represent the evolutionary dynamics responsible for the incessant growth of the complexity of Reality.
At the level of biological evolution, the Operator Selection is characterized as the mechanism of natural selection.
