In a recent study in Physical Review Letters, SFI Complexity Postdoctoral Fellow Aanjaneya Kumar and colleagues show that the margin of victory for any election can be predicted solely by the voter ...

Size distributions in some ecosystems follow a power (Zipf-)law behavior spanning up to two ten decades. A model for the origins of this scaling behavior is presented. The model shows that the ...

One of the most important ways that humans have impacted biodiversity in the long run is through reducing the abundance of megafauna (animals over ca. 45 kg/100 lbs). It is well known that toward the ...

Exploring the difference between "stable" and "robust" touches on essentially every aspect of what we instinctively find interesting about robustness in natural, engineering, and social systems. It is ...

We show that a wide variety of nonlinear cellular automata (CAs) can be decomposed into a quasidirect product of linear ones. These CAs can be predicted by parallel circuits of depth 0(log(2)t) using ...
