The report considers the dynamics of the global population as the unique case of the Socio-Economic Soft Matter system. This category was introduced for complex systems dominated by mesoscale assemblies, emerging due to the inherent…
We study kinetic and jamming properties of a space covering process in one dimension. The stochastic process is defined as follows: Seeds are nucleated randomly in space and produce rays which grow with a constant velocity. The growth stops…
We study a discrete model for generalized exchange-driven growth in which the particle exchanged between two clusters is not limited to be of size one. This set of models include as special cases the usual exchange-driven growth system and…
The critical properties of the stochastic susceptible-exposed-infected model on a square lattice is studied by numerical simulations and by the use of scaling relations. In the presence of an infected individual, a susceptible becomes…
Dynamics among central sources (hubs) providing a resource and large number of components enjoying and contributing to this resource describes many real life situations. Modeling, controlling, and balancing this dynamics is a general…
We study a two parameter ($u,p$) extension of the conformally invariant raise and peel model. The model also represents a nonlocal and biased-asymmetric exclusion process with local and nonlocal jumps of excluded volume particles in the…
Using linearized elasticity as a convenient mechanical framework, we show that volumetric growth can be formulated as an optimization-driven process in which the growth tensor is determined implicitly by constrained optimization rather than…
Single-species reaction-diffusion systems on a one-dimensional lattice are considered, in them more than two neighboring sites interact. Constraints on the interaction rates are obtained, that guarantee the closedness of the time evolution…
We propose a stochastic model for evolution through mutation and natural selection of a population that evolves on a $\bbT_d^+$ tree. We think of this model as a way of describing the evolution fitness landscape of a population. We obtain…
We consider a model of random permutations of the sites of the cubic lattice. Permutations are weighted so that sites are preferably sent onto neighbors. We present numerical evidence for the occurrence of a transition to a phase with…
The Kauffman model is the archetypal model of genetic computation. It highlights the importance of criticality, at which many biological systems seem poised. In a series of advances, researchers have honed in on how the number of attractors…
A wide range of stochastic processes that model the growth and decline of populations exhibit a curious dichotomy: with certainty either the population goes extinct or its size tends to infinity. There is a elegant and classical theorem…
Recent imaging data for single bacterial cells reveal that their mean sizes grow exponentially in time and that their size distributions collapse to a single curve when rescaled by their means. An analogous result holds for the…
Existing theoretical models of evolution focus on the relative fitness advantages of different mutants in a population while the dynamic behavior of the population size is mostly left unconsidered. We here present a generic stochastic model…
Exponential growth occurs when the growth rate of a given quantity is proportional to the quantity's current value. Surprisingly, when exponential growth data is plotted as a simple histogram disregarding the time dimension, a remarkable…
Strong experimental evidence has indicated that tumor growth belongs to the molecular beam epitaxy universality class. This type of growth is characterized by the constraint of cell proliferation to the tumor border, and surface diffusion…
In this paper, we define a class of additive random growth models whose growth is at least and at most linear and prove an asymptotic shape theorem for these models. This proof generalizes already known proofs for the classical contact…
We study collections of point masses which move freely along the real line and stick together when they collide via perfectly inelastic collisions. We quantify the way particles stick together and explain how to associate a probability…
This study in centered on models accounting for stochastic deformations of sample paths of random walks, embedded either in $\mathbb{Z}^2$ or in $\mathbb{Z}^3$. These models are immersed in multi-type particle systems with exclusion.…
We intend to contribute to the Collatz dynamics problem by seeking to analyze the Collatz conjecture from the tree of numbers sequences. First, we show numerically that the distribution of odd numbers has an initial transient, and proceeds…
