Cell size control in bacteria is modulated through extrinsic noise, single-cell- and population-growth

Arthur Genthon, Philipp Thomas

Living cells maintain size homeostasis by actively compensating for size fluctuations. Here, we present two stochastic maps that unify phenomenological models by integrating fluctu…

From noisy cell size control to population growth: when variability can be beneficial

Arthur Genthon

Single-cell experiments revealed substantial variability in generation times, growth rates but also in birth and division sizes between genetically identical cells. Understanding h…

Non Equilibrium Transitions in a Polymer Replication Ensemble

Arthur Genthon, Carl D. Modes, Frank Jülicher +1

The fuel-driven process of replication in living systems generates distributions of copied entities with varying degrees of copying accuracy. Here we introduce a thermodynamically…

Cell lineage statistics with incomplete population trees

Arthur Genthon, Takashi Nozoe, Luca Peliti +1

Cell lineage statistics is a powerful tool for inferring cellular parameters, such as division rate, death rate or the population growth rate. Yet, in practice such an analysis suf…

Analytical cell size distribution: lineage-population bias and parameter inference

Arthur Genthon

Solving population balance equations, we derive analytical steady-state cell size distributions for single-lineage experiments, such as the mother machine. These experiments are fu…

Branching processes with resetting as a model for cell division

Arthur Genthon, Reinaldo García-García, David Lacoste

We study the Stochastic Thermodynamics of cell growth and division using a theoretical framework based on branching processes with resetting. Cell division may be split into two su…

Universal constraints on selection strength in lineage trees

Arthur Genthon, David Lacoste

We obtain general inequalities constraining the difference between the average of an arbitrary function of a phenotypic trait, which includes the fitness landscape of the trait its…

The concept of velocity in the history of Brownian motion -- From physics to mathematics and back

Arthur Genthon

Interest in Brownian motion was shared by different communities: this phenomenon was first observed by the botanist Robert Brown in 1827, then theorised by physicists in the 1900s,…

Fluctuation relations and fitness landscapes of growing cell populations

Arthur Genthon, David Lacoste

We construct a pathwise formulation of a growing population of cells, based on two different samplings of lineages within the population, namely the forward and backward samplings.…

Linking lineage and population observables in biological branching processes

Reinaldo García-García, Arthur Genthon, David Lacoste

Using a population dynamics inspired by an ensemble of growing cells, a set of fluctuation theorems linking observables measured at the lineage and population levels are derived. O…
