Thermoacoustic instabilities observed in turbulent combustion systems have disastrous consequences and are notoriously challenging to model, predict and control. Here, we introduce a mean-field model of thermoacoustic transitions, where the…

A ubiquitous building block of signaling pathways is a cycle of covalent modification (e.g., phosphorylation and dephosphorylation in MAPK cascades). Our paper explores the kind of information processing and filtering that can be…
