Alternative stable states in a model of microbial community limited by multiple essential nutrients

Veronika Dubinkina, Yulia Fridman, Parth Pandey +1

Microbial communities routinely have several alternative stable states observed for the same environmental parameters. Sudden and irreversible transitions between these states make…

Applications of a class of Herglotz operator pencils

Andrea K. Barreiro, Jared C. Bronski, Zoi Rapti

We identify a class of operator pencils, arising in a number of applications, which have only real eigenvalues. In the one-dimensional case we prove a novel version of the Sturm os…

Evolution of macromolecular structure: a 'double tale' of biological accretion

Derek Caetano-Anollés, Kelsey Caetano-Anollés, Gustavo Caetano-Anollés

The evolution of structure in biology is driven by accretion and change. Accretion brings together disparate parts to form bigger wholes. Change provides opportunities for growth a…

Phase transitions in social networks inspired by the Schelling model

V. Avetisov, A. Gorsky, S. Maslov +2

We propose two models of social segregation inspired by the Schelling model. Agents in our models are nodes of evolving social networks. The total number of social connections of e…
