Why Studying Spatiotemporal Complex Systems Matters…

…even though it’s really tough. And studying the full spatial behavior of stochastic processes (including evolutionary theory, in its many guises), especially when interaction and fitness are relative to a complex network of contacts or relationships, is hard. Usually so hard, that we don’t have analytic models for the full behavior of sets of stochastic [...]

Will coevolutionary/adaptive network models be “easier” to understand than processes on fixed networks?

I’ve been studying statistical physics pretty hard lately, learning how to deal with many-body systems with a bunch of contributing factors to the dynamical evolution of a system. To a lesser extent, I’ve been studying the serious probability theory (interacting particle systems, stochastic processes) that go along with statistical physics. It’s caused me to ask [...]
