Journal ArticleDOI
Evolutionary games on graphs
György Szabó,Gábor Fáth +1 more
TL;DR: The major theme of the review is in what sense and how the graph structure of interactions can modify and enrich the picture of long term behavioral patterns emerging in evolutionary games.
Journal ArticleDOI
The large deviation approach to statistical mechanics
TL;DR: The theory of large deviations as discussed by the authors is concerned with the exponential decay of probabilities of large fluctuations in random systems, and it provides exponential-order estimates of probabilities that refine and generalize Einstein's theory of fluctuations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Globally networked risks and how to respond
TL;DR: A ‘Global Systems Science’ might create the required knowledge and paradigm shift in thinking to make man-made systems manageable.

Large-scale fluid/fluid phase separation of proteins and lipids in giant plasma membrane vesicles
Tobias Baumgart,Adam T. Hammond,Prabuddha Sengupta,Samuel T. Hess,David Holowka,Barbara Baird,Watt W. Webb +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that giant plasma membrane vesicles (GPMVs) or blebs formed from the plasma membranes of cultured mammalian cells can also segregate into micrometer-scale fluid phase domains, and GPMVs now provide an effective approach to characterize biological membrane heterogeneities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Size dependence of nanostructures: Impact of bond order deficiency
Chang Q. Sun,Chang Q. Sun +1 more
TL;DR: The BOLS correlation mechanism has been initiated and intensively verified as discussed by the authors, which has enabled the tunability of a variety of properties of a nanosolid to be universally reconciled to the effect of bond order deficiency of atoms at sites surrounding defects or near the surface edges of the nano-material.
