Nonequilibrium entropic bounds for Darwinian replicators
Jordi Piñero, Ricard Solé
Life evolved on our planet by means of a combination of Darwinian selection and innovations leading to higher levels of complexity. The emergence and selection of replicating entit…
Physical Properties and Catalogue of EW-type Eclipsing Binaries Observed by LAMOST
S. -B. Qian, J. -J. He, J. Zhang +4
Numerous EWs were discovered by several deep photometric survey and there are about 40785 EW-type binary systems listed in the international variable star index (VSX) by March 13,…
Long-term photometric behaviour of the eclipsing Z Cam-type dwarf nova AY Psc
Zhong-tao Han, Sheng-bang Qian, Irina Voloshina +1
New eclipse timings of the Z Cam-type dwarf nova AY Psc were measured and the orbital ephemeris was revised. Based on the long-term AAVSO data, moreover, the outburst behaviors wer…
Synthetic associative learning in engineered multicellular consortia
Javier Macia, Blai Vidiella, Ricard Sole
Associative learning is one of the key mechanisms displayed by living organisms in order to adapt to their changing environments. It was early recognized to be a general trait of c…
Spatial dynamics of synthetic microbial hypercycles and their parasites
Daniel R. Amor, Raúl Montañez, Salva Duran-Nebreda +1
Early theoretical work revealed that the simplest class of autocatalytic cycles, known as hypercycles, provide an elegant framework for understanding the evolution of mutualism. Fu…
Information theory, predictability, and the emergence of complex life
Luís F Seoane, Ricard Solé
Despite the obvious advantage of simple life forms capable of fast replication, different levels of cognitive complexity have been achieved by living systems in terms of their pote…
