Les Houches Lectures on Community Ecology: From Niche Theory to Statistical Mechanics

no code implementations8 Mar 2024 Wenping Cui, Robert Marsland III, Pankaj Mehta

We then shift our focus by analyzing these same models in "high-dimensions" (i. e. in the limit where the number of species and resources in the ecosystem becomes large) and discuss how such complex ecosystems can be analyzed using methods from the statistical physics of disordered systems such as the cavity method and Random Matrix Theory.

A model of pan-immunity maintenance by horizontal gene transfer in the ecological dynamics of bacteria and phages

no code implementations29 Feb 2024 Wenping Cui, Jemma M. Fendley, Sriram Srikant, Boris Shraiman

Phages and their bacterial hosts are locked in an evolutionary competition which in small and closed systems typically results in the extinction of one or the other.

Diverse communities behave like typical random ecosystems

1 code implementation1 Apr 2019 Wenping Cui, Robert Marsland III, Pankaj Mehta

In 1972, Robert May triggered a worldwide research program studying ecological communities using random matrix theory.

The Thermodynamic Uncertainty Relation in Biochemical Oscillations

Their success in carrying out their biological function is thought to depend on the degree to which these fluctuations in the cycle period can be suppressed.
