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…
Toward a general theory for the universality and scaling in critical thermal responses in biology
Jose Ignacio Arroyo, Pablo A. Marquet, Christopher P. Kempes +1
We developed a theory showing that under appropriate normalizations and rescalings, temperature response curves show a remarkably regular behavior and follow a general, universal l…
The Science of Urban Metabolism and Sustainability
Mariana Brüning-González, José Ignacio Arroyo, Pablo A. Marquet +1
Understanding the quantitative patterns behind scientific disciplines is fundamental for informed research policy. While many fields have been studied from this perspective, Urban…
Quantifying Hierarchical Selection
Hardik Rajpal, Clem von Stengel, Pedro A. M. Mediano +4
At what level does selective pressure effectively act? When considering the reproductive dynamics of interacting and mutating agents, it has long been debated whether selection is…
Persistence and neutrality in interacting replicator dynamics
Leonardo Videla, Mauricio Tejo, Cristóbal Quiñinao +2
We study the large-time behavior of an ensemble of entities obeying replicator-like stochastic dynamics with mean-field interactions as a model for a primordial ecology. We prove t…
Non-equilibrium evolution of volatility in origination and extinction explains fat-tailed fluctuations in Phanerozoic biodiversity
Andrew J. Rominger, Miguel A. Fuentes, Pablo Marquet
Fluctuations in biodiversity, large and small, are pervasive in the fossil record, yet we do not understand the processes generating them. Here we extend theory from non-equilibriu…
Humans: the hyper-dense species
Joseph R. Burger, Vanessa P. Weinberger, Pablo A. Marquet
Humans, like all organisms, are subject to fundamental biophysical laws. Van Valen predicted that, because of zero-sum dynamics, all populations of all species in a given environme…
Stationary States of a Random Copying Mechanism over a Complex Networks
Cesar A. Hidalgo, Francisco Claro, Pablo A. Marquet
An analytical approach to network dynamics is used to show that when agents copy their state randomly the network arrives to a stationary status in which the distribution of states…
