A general classification of the replication dynamics with a unique fixed point in the interior of simplex
Hongju Daisy Chen, Bin Yi, Zhanshan Sam Ma
The replication dynamics (differential equation system) is the foundation of evolutionary game theory. When n=2, there are four possible types of replication dynamics. When n=3, th…
Coupling Power Laws Offers a Powerful Method for Problems such as Biodiversity and COVID-19 Fatality Predictions
Sam Ma
Power laws have been found to describe a wide variety of natural (physical, biological, astronomic, meteorological, geological) and man-made (social, financial, computational) phen…
Spatiotemporal fluctuation scaling law and metapopulation modeling of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and SARS outbreaks
Zhanshan Ma
We comparatively analyzed the spatiotemporal fluctuations of the 2019-novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and SARS outbreaks to understand their epidemiological characteristics. Methodolo…
Individual-Level SNP Diversity and Similarity Profiles
Zhanshan, Ma, Lianwei Li +1
Classic concepts of genetic (gene) diversity (heterozygosity) such as Nei (1973: PNAS) and Nei and Li (1979: PNAS) nucleotide diversity were defined within the context of populatio…
Extending species-area relationships (SAR) to diversity-area relationships (DAR)
Zhanshan Ma
I extend the traditional SAR, which has achieved status of ecological law and plays a critical role in global biodiversity assessment, to the general (alpha- or beta-diversity in H…
A new dominance concept and its application to diversity-stability analysis
Zhanshan Ma, Aaron M. Ellison
We introduce a new dominance concept consisting of three new dominance metrics based on Lloyd's (1967) mean crowding index. The new metrics link communities and species, whereas ex…
