Plugging the Gap

Plugging the GAP between cell polarity and cell cycle.

the establishment and maintenance of cell polarity—that is, the asymmetrical partitioning of cellular materials—is fundamental to stem-cell renewal and development. the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a leading model organism for studying cell polarity. yeast cell polarity is intimately connected to the organization of the actin cytoskeleton, which guides secretion towards the budding...

We derive a number of equivalent conditions for a linear system to be energy preserving and hence, in particular, well-posed. Similarly, we derive equivalent conditions for a system to be conservative, which means that both the system and its dual are energy preserving. For systems whose control operator is one-to-one and whose observation operator has dense range, the equivalent conditions for...
