The Eden Model in $\mathbb{R}^n$ constructs a blob as follows: initially a single unit hypercube is infected, and each second a hypercube adjacent to the infected ones is selected randomly and infected. Manin, Rold\'{a}n, and Schweinhart…
We study topological and geometric properties of a cell growth process in the Euclidean plane, where the cells are regular pentagons. To explore the aesthetic aspects of this model, we employ a laser cutter on various materials to create…
We consider the asymptotic shape of clusters in the Eden model on a d-dimensional hypercubical lattice. We discuss two improvements for the well-known upper bound to the growth velocity in different directions by that of the independent…
The preferential attachment model is a natural and popular random graph model for a growing network that contains very well-connected ``hubs''. We study the higher-order connectivity of such a network by investigating the topological…
The stochastic Eden model of charged particles aggregation in two-dimensional systems is presented. This model is governed by two parameters: screening length of electrostatic interaction, $\lambda $, and short range attraction energy, $E$.…
A first principles approach to the theoretical description of the development of biological forms, from a fertilized egg to a functioning embryo, remains a central challenge to applied physics and theoretical biology. Rather than refer to…
Spatial models where growth is limited to the edge of the expansions have been instrumental to understand the population dynamics and the clone size distribution in growing cellular populations, such as microbial colonies and avascular…
The self-affinity of growing systems with radial symmetry, from tumors to grain-grain displacement, has devoted increasing interest in the last decade. In this work, we analyzed features about the interface scaling of these clusters through…
We study how the topology of feature embedding space changes as it passes through the layers of a well-trained deep neural network (DNN) through Betti numbers. Motivated by existing studies using simplicial complexes on shallow fully…
Microbial colonies are experimental model systems for studying the colonization of new territory by biological species through range expansion. We study a generalization of the two-species Eden model, which incorporates local…
We consider a free boundary problem for a system of PDEs, modeling the growth of a biological tissue. A morphogen, controlling volume growth, is produced by specific cells and then diffused and absorbed throughout the domain. The geometric…
A $\beta$-skeleton, $\beta \geq 1$, is a planar proximity undirected graph of an Euclidean points set, where nodes are connected by an edge if their lune-based neighbourhood contains no other points of the given set. Parameter $\beta$…
Cell colonies of bacteria, tumour cells and fungi, under nutrient limited growth conditions, exhibit complex branched growth patterns. In order to investigate this phenomenon we present a simple hybrid cellular automaton model of cell…
Networks in nature are often formed within a spatial domain in a dynamical manner, gaining links and nodes as they develop over time. We propose a class of spatially-based growing network models and investigate the relationship between the…
We present a discrete stochastic model which represents many of the salient features of the biological process of wound healing. The model describes fronts of cells invading a wound. We have numerical results in one and two dimensions. In…
An open question in studying normal grain growth concerns the asymptotic state to which microstructures converge. In particular, the distribution of grain topologies is unknown. We introduce a thermodynamic-like theory to explain these…
A one-dimensional cellular automaton with a probabilistic evolution rule can generate stochastic surface growth in $(1 + 1)$ dimensions. Two such discrete models of surface growth are constructed from a probabilistic cellular automaton…
Let $d\in\mathbb N$, $\alpha\in\mathbb R$, and let $f :\mathbb R^d\setminus \{0\} \rightarrow (0,\infty)$ be locally Lipschitz and positively homogeneous of degree $\alpha$ (e.g. $f$ could be the $\alpha$th power of a norm on $\mathbb…
In [B] Bowen defined the growth rate of an endomorphism of a finitely generated group and related it to the entropy of a map $f:M \mapsto M$ on a compact manifold. In this note we study the purely group theoretic aspects of the growth rate…
The shape of large on-lattice Eden clusters grown from a single seed is ruled by the underlying lattice anisotropy. This is reflected on the linear growth with time of the interface width ($w\sim t$), in contrast with the KPZ universality…
