Assembly Theory is an approximation to algorithmic complexity based on LZ compression that does not explain selection or evolution
We formally prove the equivalence between Assembly Theory (AT) and Shannon Entropy via a method based upon the principles of statistical compression that belongs to the LZ family of popular compression algorithms. Such popular lossless compression algorithms behind file formats such as ZIP and PNG h...
