Environment driven oscillation in an off-lattice May--Leonard model
D. Bazeia, M. J. B. Ferreira, B. F. de Oliveira +1
Cyclic dominance of competing species is an intensively used working hypothesis to explain biodiversity in certain living systems, where the evolutionary selection principle would…
Social dilemmas in off-lattice populations
B. F. de Oliveira, A. Szolnoki
Exploring the possible consequences of spatial reciprocity on the evolution of cooperation is an intensively studied research avenue. Related works assumed a certain interaction gr…
Rock-paper-scissors models with a preferred mobility direction
P. P. Avelino, B. F. de Oliveira, J. V. O. Silva
We investigate a modified spatial stochastic Lotka-Volterra formulation of the rock-paper-scissors model using off-lattice stochastic simulations. In this model one of the species…
Predominance of the weakest species in Lotka-Volterra and May-Leonard implementations of the rock-paper-scissors model
P. P. Avelino, B. F. de Oliveira, R. S. Trintin
We revisit the problem of the predominance of the 'weakest' species in the context of Lotka-Volterra and May-Leonard implementations of a spatial stochastic rock-paper-scissors mod…
Expanding spatial domains and transient scaling regimes in populations with local cyclic competition
P. P. Avelino, J. Menezes, B. F. de Oliveira +1
We investigate a six-species class of May-Leonard models leading to formation two types of competing spatial domains, each one inhabited by three-species with their own internal cy…
Hamming distance and mobility behavior in generalized rock-paper-scissors models
D. Bazeia, J. Menezes, B. F. de Oliveira +1
This work reports on two related investigations of stochastic simulations which are widely used to study biodiversity and other related issues. We first deal with the behavior of t…
A novel procedure for the identification of chaos in complex biological systems
D. Bazeia, M. B. P. N. Pereira, A. V. Brito +2
We demonstrate the presence of chaos in stochastic simulations that are widely used to study biodiversity in nature. The investigation deals with a set of three distinct species th…
Junctions and spiral patterns in Rock-Paper-Scissors type models
P. P. Avelino, D. Bazeia, L. Losano +2
We investigate the population dynamics in generalized Rock-Paper-Scissors models with an arbitrary number of species . We show, for the first time, that spiral patterns with …
Electric field induced inversion of the sign of half-integer disclinations in 2D nematic liquid crystals
P. P. Avelino, F. Moraes, J. C. R. E. Oliveira +1
We study the effect of the rotation of an external electric field on the dynamics of half-integer disclination networks in two dimensional nematic liquid crystals with a negative d…
