The Emergence of Spatial Complexity in the immune System
Yoram Louzoun, Sorin Solomon, Henri Atlan +1
Biological systems, unlike physical or chemical systems, are characterized by the very inhomogeneous distribution of their components. The immune system, in particular, is notable…
Discrete Financial Means: When exception rules, mean means nothing; Auto-catalytic Individuals Survive by all Means
Sorin Solomon
The origin of macroscopic complexity is traced in a wide range of systems (imunology, ecology, finance, marketing, etc) to the discrete and auto-catalytic (i.e. multiplicative) cha…
Microscopic Discrete Proliferating Components Cause the Self-Organized Emergence of Macroscopic Adaptive Features in Biological Systems
Yoram Louzoun, Sorin Solomon, Henri Atlan +1
We study the emergence of the collective spatio-temporal macroscopic properties of the immune system, by representing individually the elementary interactions between its microscop…
Power Laws and Cities Population
Aharon Blank, Sorin Solomon
We study a few dynamical systems composed of many components whose sizes evolve according to multiplicative stochastic rules. We compare them with respect to the emergence of power…
