Exploring the conditions for sustainability with open-ended innovation
Debora Princepe, Cristobal Quiñinao, Cristina Díaz Faloh +2
Can sustained open-ended technological progress preserve natural resources in a finite planet? We address this question on the basis of a stylized model with genuine open-ended tec…
Three state random energy model
Sumedha, Matteo Marsili
We introduce a spin-1 version of the random energy model with crystal field. Crystal field controls the density of 0 spins in the system. We solve the model in the micro-canonincal…
Is stochastic thermodynamics the key to understanding the energy costs of computation?
David Wolpert, Jan Korbel, Christopher Lynn +16
The relationship between the thermodynamic and computational characteristics of dynamical physical systems has been a major theoretical interest since at least the 19th century, an…
Topology-Induced Inverse Phase Transitions
D. De Martino, S. Bradde, L. Dall'Asta +1
Inverse phase transitions are striking phenomena in which an apparently more ordered state disorders under cooling. This behavior can naturally emerge in tricritical systems on het…
Opportunity and choice in social networks
P. Pin, M. Marsili, S. Franz
Our societies are heterogeneous in many dimensions such as census, education, religion, ethnic and cultural composition. The links between individuals - e.g. by friendship, marriag…
Optimization in task--completion networks
L. Dall'Asta, M. Marsili, P. Pin
We discuss the collective behavior of a network of individuals that receive, process and forward to each other tasks. Given costs they store those tasks in buffers, choosing optima…
