Self−Similarity In Plants: Integrating Mathematical And Biological Perspectives
Self−similarity is a conspicuous feature of many plants. Geometric self−similarity is commonly expressed in terms of affine transformations that map a structure into its components. Here we introduce topological self−similarity, which deals with the configurations and neighborhood relations between these components instead. The topological self−similarity of linear and branching structures is c...
متن کاملSelf-similarity, Fractal Models and Spline Approximation
Invariance is an attractive principle for specifying image processing algorithms. In this presentation, we concentrate on self-similarity—more precisely, shift, scale and rotation invariance—and identify the corresponding class of operators in d dimensions. For d = 1, there is no rotation and the scale-invariant differential operators are the fractional derivatives: ∂ γ τ ←→ (− jω) γ 2−τ( jω) γ...
متن کاملSelf organization and evolution in mathematical models
Through several examples we illustrate to non mathematicians how biological situations can be translated in mathematical terms. Even simple mathematical models can be very efficient to clarify a complex biological situation and the same basic mathematical procedures can be found in different biological frameworks. In particular stability analysis under small fluctuations of non linear models po...
متن کاملContinuous and discrete mathematical models of tumor-induced angiogenesis.
Angiogenesis, the formation of blood vessels from a pre-existing vasculature, is a process whereby capillary sprouts are formed in response to externally supplied chemical stimuli. The sprouts then grow and develop, driven initially by endothelial-cell migration, and organize themselves into a dendritic structure. Subsequent cell proliferation near the sprout tip permits further extension of th...
متن کاملOn Mathematical Theory of Selection: Discrete-Time Models
According to the Darwinian theory, natural selection uses the genetic variation in a population to produce individuals that are adapted to their environment. The Fisher’s Fundamental theorem of natural selection (FTNS) states [Fisher 1999]: “the rate of increase in fitness of any organism at any time is equal to its genetic variance in fitness at that time, except as affected by mutation, migra...
