Optimal chemotactic responses in stochastic environments
Although the "adaptive" strategy used by Escherichia coli has dominated our understanding of bacterial chemotaxis, the environmental conditions under which this strategy emerged is still poorly understood. In this work, we study the performance of various chemotactic strategies under a range of stochastic time- and space-varying attractant distributions in silico. We describe a novel "speculato...
متن کاملSearching for species in haloarchaea.
Prokaryotic (bacterial and archaeal) species definitions and the biological concepts that underpin them entail clustering (cohesion) among individuals, in terms of genome content and gene sequence similarity. Homologous recombination can maintain gene sequence similarity within, while permitting divergence between, clusters and is thus the basis for recent efforts to apply the Biological Specie...
متن کاملOptimal Renewal Policy for Slowly Degrading Systems
In the paper we address the problem of determining the optimal time to renew a system when it experiences so called soft failures because of aging. It is assumed that crash failures, which reduce the service rate to 0 immediately, do not occur. However, the service rate of the examined system gradually decreases with time and settles to a very low value. Since the performance in this state is v...
متن کاملOptimal protocols for slowly driven quantum systems.
The design of efficient quantum information processing will rely on optimal nonequilibrium transitions of driven quantum systems. Building on a recently developed geometric framework for computing optimal protocols for classical systems driven in finite time, we construct a general framework for optimizing the average information entropy for driven quantum systems. Geodesics on the parameter ma...
متن کاملSpreading speeds in slowly oscillating environments.
In this paper, we derive exact asymptotic estimates of the spreading speeds of solutions of some reaction-diffusion models in periodic environments with very large periods. Contrarily to the other limiting case of rapidly oscillating environments, there was previously no explicit formula in the case of slowly oscillating environments. The knowledge of these two extremes permits to quantify the ...
