A theory of ecological invasions and its implications for eco-evolutionary dynamics
Zhijie Feng, Emmy Blumenthal, Pankaj Mehta +1
Predicting the outcomes of species invasions is a central goal of ecology, a task made especially challenging due to ecological feedbacks. To address this, we develop a general the…
Les Houches Lectures on Community Ecology: From Niche Theory to Statistical Mechanics
Wenping Cui, Robert Marsland, Pankaj Mehta
Ecosystems are among the most interesting and well-studied examples of self-organized complex systems. Community ecology, the study of how species interact with each other and the…
Diverse communities behave like typical random ecosystems
Wenping Cui, Robert Marsland, Pankaj Mehta
In 1972, Robert May triggered a worldwide research program studying ecological communities using random matrix theory. Yet, it remains unclear if and when we can treat real communi…
Identifying feasible operating regimes for early T-cell recognition: The speed, energy, accuracy trade-off in kinetic proofreading and adaptive sorting
Wenping Cui, Pankaj Mehta
In the immune system, T cells can quickly discriminate between foreign and self ligands with high accuracy. There is evidence that T-cells achieve this remarkable performance utili…
