Uniform generation of RNA pseudoknot structures with genus filtration
Fenix W. D. Huang, Markus E. Nebel, Christian M. Reidys
In this paper we present a sampling framework for RNA structures of fixed topological genus. We introduce a novel, linear time, uniform sampling algorithm for RNA structures of fix…
Evolution in a Changing Environment
Andrea Baronchelli, Nick Chater, Morten H. Christiansen +1
We propose a simple model for genetic adaptation to a changing environment, describing a fitness landscape characterized by two maxima. One is associated with "specialist" individu…

There is strong expectation that cities, across time, culture and level of development, share much in common in terms of their form and function. Recently, attempts to formalize ma…
The Transformation-Groupoid Structure of the q-Gaussian Family
Angel Akio Tateishi, Rudolf Hanel, Stefan Thurner
The q-Gaussian function emerges naturally in various applications of statistical mechanics of non-ergodic and complex systems. In particular it was shown that in the theory of bina…
