A Boolean network is a function $f:\{0,1\}^n\to\{0,1\}^n$ from which several dynamics can be derived, depending on the context. The most classical ones are the synchronous and asynchronous dynamics. Both are digraphs on $\{0,1\}^n$, but the…

Identification of attractors, that is, stable states and sustained oscillations, is an important step in the analysis of Boolean models and exploration of potential variants. We describe an approach to the search for asynchronous cyclic…
In many applications one is interested in finding the stability regions (basins of attraction) of some stationary states (attractors). In this paper we show that one cannot compute, in general, the basins of attraction of even very regular…
The dynamics by iteration of a function on a compact metric space, sometimes called a cascade, can be extended to the dynamics of a closed relation on such a space. Here we apply this relation dynamics to study semiflows (and their relation…
