Good regulator theorem

The good regulator theorem is a theorem conceived by Roger C. Conant and W. Ross Ashby that is central to cybernetics. It was originally stated as "every good regulator of a system must be a model of that system". That is, any regulator that is maximally simple among optimal regulators must behave as an image of that system under a homomorphism.
