Exploring the conditions for sustainability with open-ended innovation
Debora Princepe, Cristobal Quiñinao, Cristina DÃaz 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…
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…
