External light schedules can induce nighttime sleep disruptions in a Homeostat-Circadian-Light Model for sleep in young children

Tianyong Yao, Victoria Booth

Sleep disturbances, particularly nighttime waking, are highly prevalent in young children and can significantly disrupt not only the child's well-being but also family functioning.…

Accuracy versus Predominance: Reassessing the validity of the quasi-steady-state approximation

Kashvi Srivastava, Justin Eilertsen, Victoria Booth +1

The application of the standard quasi-steady-state approximation to the Michaelis--Menten reaction mechanism is a textbook example of biochemical model reduction, derived using sin…

Bifurcations of sleep patterns due to homeostatic and circadian variation in a sleep-wake flip-flop model

Christina Athanasouli, Sofia H. Piltz, Cecilia Diniz Behn +1

Differential equation-based physiological models of sleep-wake networks describe sleep-wake regulation by simulating the activity of wake- and sleep-promoting neuronal populations…

Seasonality and Light Phase-Resetting in the Mammalian Circadian Rhythm

Kevin M. Hannay, Daniel B. Forger, Victoria Booth

We study the impact of light on the mammalian circadian system using the theory of phase response curves. Using a recently developed ansatz we derive a low-dimensional macroscopic…

REM sleep complicates period adding bifurcations from monophasic to polyphasic sleep behavior in a sleep-wake regulatory network model for human sleep

K. Kalmbach, V. Booth, C. G. Diniz Behn

The structure of human sleep changes across development as it consolidates from the polyphasic sleep of infants to the single nighttime sleep period typical in adults. Across this…

Macroscopic Models for Networks of Coupled Biological Oscillators

Kevin M. Hannay, Daniel B. Forger, Victoria Booth

The study of synchronization in populations of coupled biological oscillators is fundamental to many areas of biology to include neuroscience, cardiac dynamics and circadian rhythm…
