Feasibility as a moving target: Fluctuating species interactions lead to universal power law in equilibrium abundances
Cagatay Eskin, Vu Nguyen, Dervis Can Vural
Theoretical ecology has traditionally equated persistence with the stability of a fixed equilibrium point. Here we argue that the primary threat to ecosystem persistence need not b…

Extinction in complex communities as driven by adaptive dynamics
Vu AT Nguyen, Dervis C Vural
In a complex community, species continuously adapt to each other. On rare occasions, the adaptation of a species can lead to the extinction of others, and even its own. "Adaptive d…

Theoretical guidelines for editing ecological communities
Vu AT Nguyen, Dervis Can Vural
Having control over species abundances and community resilience is of great interest for experimental, agricultural, industrial and conservation purposes. Here, we theoretically ex…
