Analysis of Space-Temporal Symmetry in the Early Embryogenesis of Calla palustris L., Araceae

I.V. Rudskiy, G.E. Titova, T.B. Batygina (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Plants and animals have highly ordered structure both in time and in space, and one of the main questions of modern developmental biology is the transformation of genetic information into the regular structure of organism. Any multicellular plant begins its development from the universal unicellular state and acquire own species-specific structure in the course of cell divisions, cell growth and death, according to own developmental program. However the cellular mechanisms of plant development are...

Analytic aspects of the circulant Hadamard conjecture

Teodor Banica, Ion Nechita, Jean-Marc Schlenker (2014)

Annales mathématiques Blaise Pascal

We investigate the problem of counting the real or complex Hadamard matrices which are circulant, by using analytic methods. Our main observation is the fact that for | q 0 | = ... = | q N - 1 | = 1 the quantity Φ = i + k = j + l q i q k q j q l satisfies Φ N 2 , with equality if and only if q = ( q i ) is the eigenvalue vector of a rescaled circulant complex Hadamard matrix. This suggests three analytic problems, namely: (1) the brute-force minimization of Φ , (2) the study of the critical points of Φ , and (3) the computation of the moments of Φ . We explore here these questions,...

Analyzing sets of phylogenetic trees using metrics

Damian Bogdanowicz (2011)

Applicationes Mathematicae

The reconstruction of evolutionary trees is one of the primary objectives in phylogenetics. Such a tree represents historical evolutionary relationships between different species or organisms. Tree comparisons are used for multiple purposes, from unveiling the history of species to deciphering evolutionary associations among organisms and geographical areas. In this paper, we describe a general method for comparing phylogenetic trees and give some basic properties of the Matching Split metric, which...

Analyzing the dynamics of deterministic systems from a hypergraph theoretical point of view

Luis M. Torres, Annegret K. Wagler (2013)

RAIRO - Operations Research - Recherche Opérationnelle

To model the dynamics of discrete deterministic systems, we extend the Petri nets framework by a priority relation between conflicting transitions, which is encoded by orienting the edges of a transition conflict graph. The aim of this paper is to gain some insight into the structure of this conflict graph and to characterize a class of suitable orientations by an analysis in the context of hypergraph theory.
