BookDOI
Lectures On Phase Transitions And The Renormalization Group
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe how phase transitions occur in practice in practice, and describe the role of models in the process of phase transitions in the Ising Model and the Role of Models in Phase Transition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simple Lessons from Complexity
Nigel Goldenfeld,Leo P. Kadanoff +1 more
TL;DR: The complexity of the world is contrasted with the simplicity of the basic laws of physics, and considerable study has been devoted to systems that exhibit complex outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ) from the Systemizing Quotient-Revised (SQ-R) and Empathy Quotient (EQ).
Sally Wheelwright,Simon Baron-Cohen,Nigel Goldenfeld,Joe Delaney,Debra Fine,Richard Smith,Leonora Weil,Akio Wakabayashi +7 more
TL;DR: AQ score was successfully predicted from EQ and SQ-R scores, and the weak but significant negative correlation may indicate a trade-off between them.
Journal ArticleDOI
Renormalization group and singular perturbations: Multiple scales, boundary layers, and reductive perturbation theory
Lin Yuan Chen,Lin Yuan Chen,Nigel Goldenfeld,Nigel Goldenfeld,Yoshitsugu Oono,Yoshitsugu Oono +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the renormalization group equation may be interpreted as an amplitude equation, and from this point of view develop reductive perturbation theory for partial differential equations describing spatially extended systems near bifurcation points, deriving both amplitude equations and the center manifold.
Journal ArticleDOI
Collective evolution and the genetic code
TL;DR: A dynamical theory for the evolution of the genetic code is presented, which accounts for its universality and optimality and is illustrated by using a simplified computer model and placed within the context of a sequence of transitions that early life may have made, before the emergence of vertical descent.
