Boolean networks are discrete dynamical systems where each automaton has its own Boolean function for computing its state according to the configuration of the network. The updating mode then determines how the configuration of the network…

A mixture of spin-1/2 fermionic atoms and molecules of paired fermionic atoms is studied in an optical lattice. The molecules are formed by an attractive nearest-neighbor interaction. A functional integral is constructed for this many-body…
