Collective is different: Information exchange and speed-accuracy trade-offs in self-organized patterning
Ashutosh Tripathi, Jörn Dunkel, Dominic J. Skinner
During development, highly ordered structures emerge as cells collectively coordinate with each other. While recent advances have clarified how individual cells process and respond…
Topological flowscape reveals state transitions in nonreciprocal living matter
Hyunseok Lee, EliseAnne Koskelo, Shreyas Gokhale +7
Nonreciprocal interactions -- where forces between entities are asymmetric -- govern a wide range of nonequilibrium phenomena, yet their role in structural transitions in living an…
Persistent homology and topological statistics of hyperuniform point clouds
Marco Salvalaglio, Dominic J. Skinner, Jörn Dunkel +1
Hyperuniformity, the suppression of density fluctuations at large length scales, is observed across a wide variety of domains, from cosmology to condensed matter and biological sys…
Discovering dynamics and parameters of nonlinear oscillatory and chaotic systems from partial observations
George Stepaniants, Alasdair D. Hastewell, Dominic J. Skinner +2
Despite rapid progress in live-imaging techniques, many complex biophysical and biochemical systems remain only partially observable, thus posing the challenge to identify valid th…
Topological packing statistics distinguish living and non-living matter
Dominic J. Skinner, Hannah Jeckel, Adam C. Martin +2
How much structural information is needed to distinguish living from non-living systems? Here, we show that the statistical properties of Delaunay tessellations suffice to differen…
Estimating entropy production from waiting time distributions
Dominic J. Skinner, Jörn Dunkel
Living systems operate far from thermal equilibrium by converting the chemical potential of ATP into mechanical work to achieve growth, replication or locomotion. Given time series…
Improved bounds on entropy production in living systems
Dominic J. Skinner, Jörn Dunkel
Living systems maintain or increase local order by working against the Second Law of Thermodynamics. Thermodynamic consistency is restored as they dissipate heat, thereby increasin…
Topological metric detects hidden order in disordered media
Dominic J. Skinner, Boya Song, Hannah Jeckel +3
Recent advances in microscopy techniques make it possible to study the growth, dynamics, and response of complex biophysical systems at single-cell resolution, from bacterial commu…
