Unifying autocatalytic and zeroth-order branching models for growing actin networks.
The directed polymerization of actin networks is an essential element of many biological processes, including cell migration. Different theoretical models considering the interplay between the underlying processes of polymerization, capping, and branching have resulted in conflicting predictions. One of the main reasons for this discrepancy is the assumption of a branching reaction that is eith...
متن کاملCurvature and torsion in growing actin networks.
Intracellular pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes and Rickettsia rickettsii move within a host cell by polymerizing a comet-tail of actin fibers that ultimately pushes the cell forward. This dense network of cross-linked actin polymers typically exhibits a striking curvature that causes bacteria to move in gently looping paths. Theoretically, tail curvature has been linked to details of mo...
متن کاملZeroth Order Nonconvex Multi-Agent Optimization over Networks
In this paper we consider distributed optimization problems over a multi-agent network, where each agent can only partially evaluate the objective function, and it is allowed to exchange messages with its immediate neighbors. Differently from all existing works on distributed optimization, our focus is given to optimizing a class of difficult non-convex problems, and under the challenging setti...
متن کاملTractable models of self-sustaining autocatalytic networks
Self-sustaining autocatalytic networks play a central role in living systems, from metabolism at the origin of life, simple RNA networks, and the modern cell, to ecology and cognition. A collectively autocatalytic network that can be sustained from an ambient food set is also referred to more formally as a ‘Reflexively Autocatalytic F-generated’ (RAF) set. In this paper, we first investigate a ...
متن کاملDeterminants of Zeroth Order Operators
For compact Riemannian manifolds all of whose geodesics are closed (aka Zoll manifolds) one can define the determinant of a zeroth order pseudodifferential operator by mimicking Szego’s definition of this determinant for the operator: multiplication by a bounded function, on the Hilbert space of square-integrable functions on the circle. In this paper we prove that the non-local contribution to...
