Some recent insights are based on nonlinear bioenergetic consumer … weak type III functional response), we drastically alter the dynamics of systems containing up to ten species. Our model … stabilizes chaotic dynamics in three species systems and reduces or eliminates extinctions and non-persistent chaos in ten …

Dynamics is not enough for cognition nor is it a substitute for information processing aspects of brain behavior …. Moreover, dynamics and computation are not at odds, but are quite compatible. They can be synthesized so that any dynamical …

We present a model of opinion dynamics in which agents adjust continuous opinions as a result of random binary encoun … network interactions, threshold heterogeneity, adaptive thresholds and binary strings of opinions. …

stability and instability of collective outcomes that focuses on the effects of mutual knowledge. We show that if a complex …

Theoretical studies of the stability of food webs have generally not incorporated space as a contingency affecting … coexistence of species. Here, I considered the importance of spatial heterogeneity on the stability of an individual-based food … connectance, and interaction strength, and increased coexistence among species. The results did not support the stability …

economy with multiple competitive equilibria, we show that the stability of a CE depends critically upon the dynamics of the …. The joint dynamics of the chosen price adjustment mechanism and the given economy determines the overall stability of its … adjustment mechanism may provide insights into the dynamics and stability of economic systems that are often not revealed through …

The study of learning in games encompasses two research lines: (1) explaining the aggregate stability of classes of … by considering both stability and learning rules in terms of a partition of the strategy space, where changes to the … partition structure imply changes in the stability characteristics of the game. We present experimental results from a set of …

network complexity and species richness increase. Our findings are based on seven of the largest and most complex food webs … dynamics of species within ecosystems may be more highly interconnected and that biodiversity loss and species invasions …
