In late December 2019, a cluster of cases with 2019 Novel Coronavirus pneumonia (SARS-
CoV-2) in Wuhan, China, aroused worldwide concern. Previous studies have reported …

A review is given on the foundations and applications of non-Hermitian classical and
quantum physics. First, key theorems and central concepts in non-Hermitian linear algebra …

As the world moves towards industrialization, optimization problems become more
challenging to solve in a reasonable time. More than 500 new metaheuristic algorithms …

This review summarizes theoretical progress in the field of active matter, placing it in the
context of recent experiments. This approach offers a unified framework for the mechanical …

A proposal for a new way to understand cities and their design not as artifacts but as
systems composed of flows and networks. In The New Science of Cities, Michael Batty …

Nature-Inspired Optimization Algorithms, Second Edition provides an introduction to all
major nature-inspired algorithms for optimization. The book's unified approach, balancing …

This paper provides a theoretical framework for analysis of consensus algorithms for multi-
agent networked systems with an emphasis on the role of directed information flow …

Coupled biological and chemical systems, neural networks, social interacting species, the
Internet and the World Wide Web, are only a few examples of systems composed by a large …

In this paper, we discuss consensus problems for networks of dynamic agents with fixed and
switching topologies. We analyze three cases: 1) directed networks with fixed topology; 2) …

In a recent Physical Review Letters article, Vicsek et al. propose a simple but compelling
discrete-time model of n autonomous agents (ie, points or particles) all moving in the plane …
