The Role of Positivity and Connectivity in the Performance of Business Teams: A Nonlinear Dynamics Model
Marcial F. Losada,Emily Heaphy +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the control parameter in a nonlinear dynamics model of team performance is mathematically linked to the ratio of positivity to negativity (P/N) in team interaction, by knowing the P/N.

Chaos: Significance, Mechanism, and Economic Applications
William J. Baumol,Jess Benhabib +1 more
TL;DR: Chaos as discussed by the authors is the phenomenon referred to as pathological, in which a dynamic mechanism that is very simple and deterministic yields a time path so complicated that it will pass most standard tests of randomness.

Generative Models of Cortical Oscillations: Neurobiological Implications of the Kuramoto Model
TL;DR: It is argued that such formulations are able to provide a mechanistic and unifying explanation of oscillatory phenomena in the human cortex, such as fluctuating beta oscillations, and their relationship to basic computational processes including multistability, criticality, and information capacity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sustainability, Stability, and Resilience
TL;DR: In this article, the authors define and refine the concepts of stability and resilience and demonstrate their value in understanding the behavior of exploited systems, and demonstrate that the concept of resilience depends upon our objectives, the types of disturbances that we anticipate, control measures that are available, and the time scale of interest.

Stability of Travelling Waves
TL;DR: In this paper, an overview of various aspects related to the spectral and nonlinear stability of travelling-wave solutions to partial differential equations is given, including the point and essential spectrum of the linearization about a travelling wave, the relation between these spectra, Fredholm properties, and the existence of exponential dichotomies for the linear operator.
