Hybrid-type synchronization transitions: where marginal coherence, scale-free avalanches, and bistability live together

Victor Buendía, Pablo Villegas, Raffaella Burioni +1

The human cortex is never at rest but in a state of sparse and noisy neural activity that can be detected at broadly diverse resolution scales. It has been conjectured that such a…

Evolution in the Debian GNU/Linux software network: analogies and differences with gene regulatory networks

Pablo Villegas, Miguel A. Muñoz, Juan A. Bonachela

Biological networks exhibit intricate architectures deemed to be crucial for their functionality. In particular, gene regulatory networks, which play a key role in information proc…

Self-organized bistability and its possible relevance for brain dynamics

Victor Buendía, Serena di Santo, Pablo Villegas +2

Self-organized bistability (SOB) is the counterpart of 'self-organized criticality' (SOC), for systems tuning themselves to the edge of bistability of a discontinuous phase transit…

Time-series thresholding and the definition of avalanche size

Pablo Villegas, Serena di Santo, Raffaella Burioni +1

Avalanches whose sizes and durations are distributed as power laws appear in many contexts. Here, we show that there is a hidden peril in thresholding continuous times series --eit…

Jensen's force and the statistical mechanics of cortical asynchronous states

Victor Buendía, Pablo Villegas, Serena di Santo +3

The cortex exhibits self-sustained highly-irregular activity even under resting conditions, whose origin and function need to be fully understood. It is believed that this can be d…

Non-normality, reactivity, and intrinsic stochasticity in neural dynamics: a non-equilibrium potential approach

Serena di Santo, Pablo Villegas, Raffaella Burioni +1

Intrinsic stochasticity can induce highly non-trivial effects on dynamical systems, including stochastic and coherence resonance, noise induced bistability, noise-induced oscillati…
