Quantifying scale-free behaviors in Rock-Paper-Scissors Models as a function of Mobility

D. Bazeia, M. Bongestab, M. J. B. Ferreira +2

We investigate the scale-free behavior of the spatial rock-paper-scissors model with May-Leonard dynamics, analyzing specific quantifiers that engender the power-law feature. The m…

Competition among alliances of different sizes

Breno F. de Oliveira, Attila Szolnoki

To understand the biodiversity of an ecosystem cannot be understood by solely analyzing the pair relations of competing species. Instead, we should consider multi-point interaction…

Effects of a pestilent species on the stability of cyclically dominant species

D. Bazeia, M. Bongestab, B. F. de Oliveira +1

Cyclic dominance is frequently believed to be a mechanism that maintains diversity of competing species. But this delicate balance could also be fragile if some of the members is w…

Impact of parity in rock-paper-scissors type models

P. P. Avelino, B. F. de Oliveira, R. S. Trintin

We investigate the impact of parity on the abundance of weak species in the context of the simplest generalization of the rock-paper-scissors model to an arbitrary number of specie…

Weak species in rock-paper-scissors models

P. P. Avelino, B. F. de Oliveira, R. S. Trintin

In this letter, we investigate the population dynamics in a May-Leonard formulation of the rock-paper-scissors game in which one or two species, which we shall refer to as "weak",…

Mobility driven coexistence of living organisms

B. F. de Oliveira, M. V. de Moraes, D. Bazeia +1

We propose a minimal off-lattice model of living organisms where just a very few dynamical rules of growth are assumed. The stable coexistence of many clusters is detected when we…

Breaking unidirectional invasions jeopardizes biodiversity in spatial May-Leonard systems

D. Bazeia, B. F. de Oliveira, J. V. O. Silva +1

Non-transitive dominance and the resulting cyclic loop of three or more competing species provide a fundamental mechanism to explain biodiversity in biological and ecological syste…

Performance of weak species in the simplest generalization of the rock-paper-scissors model to four species

P. P. Avelino, B. F. de Oliveira, R. S. Trintin

We investigate the problem of the predominance and survival of "weak" species in the context of the simplest generalization of the spatial stochastic rock-paper-scissors model to f…

Model for clustering of living species

D. Bazeia, M. V. de Moraes, B. F. de Oliveira

Clusters appear in nature in a diversity of contexts, involving distances as long as the cosmological ones, and down to atoms and molecules and the very small nuclear size. They al…
