Game theory is one of the key paradigms behind many scientific disciplines from biology to
behavioral sciences to economics. In its evolutionary form and especially when the …

This is the first account of the history of our understanding of, and ability to model,
solidification microstructures. Its objective is to retrace the scientific steps made, from the …

One of the major challenges in modern biology is to understand how the molecular
components of a living cell operate in a highly noisy environment. What are the specific …

Cells have traditionally been viewed either as independently moving entities or as
somewhat static parts of tissues. However, it is now clear that in many cases, multiple cells …

A variety of non-equilibrium growth processes are characterized by phase boundaries
consisting of moving fingers, often with interesting secondary structures such as …

This book gives an introduction to the mathematical theory of cooperative behavior in active
systems of various origins, both natural and artificial. It is based on a lecture course in …

A general approach to diffusion-limited crystal growth is proposed. It consists of a modified
(nonequilibrium) Cahn-Hilliard representation of the interface coupled to a diffusion …

The study of simplified theoretical models is an important part of the search for a more
general and systematic theory of natural pattern formation. Three qualitatively different kinds …

Excitable media are extended nonequilibrium systems having uniform rest states that are
linearly stable but susceptible to finite perturbations. Depending on the forms of these …

Modelling the displacement of thousands of cells that move in a collective way is required for
the simulation and the theoretical analysis of various biological processes. Here, we tackle …
