Ghost channels and ghost cycles guiding long transients in dynamical systems
Daniel Koch, Akhilesh Nandan, Gayathri Ramesan +1
Dynamical descriptions and modeling of natural systems have generally focused on fixed points, with saddles and saddle-based phase-space objects such as heteroclinic channels/cycle…

Biological computations: limitations of attractor-based formalisms and the need for transients
Daniel Koch, Akhilesh Nandan, Gayathri Ramesan +1
Living systems, from single cells to higher vertebrates, receive a continuous stream of non-stationary inputs that they sense, e.g., via cell surface receptors or sensory organs. I…
