ABSTRACT={In previous works an exhaustive description has been obtained of the aggregative processes to which the ideal system described by the so called IdEP-IdLA model can be subject both in closed conditions (at equilibrium) and in open conditions (far from equilibrium). The model has shown such a thermodynamic coherence that it can be used for a theoretical study of real processes. The aim of this work is therefore to try to transfer the results obtained to the biochemical field: in particular, we here propose to investigate whether the model is able to contribute to define probabilistic requirements to which biogenesis must be subject. The reasoning leads to conclusions largely in line with the state of the art on this topic but, at the same time, opens the way to a completely innovative conjecture: the possi-bility that some phenomena can be supported by an information flow that proceeds according to an inverted time ar-row. This is the Arianna’s conjecture.}}
