We study the dynamics of a simple adaptive system in the presence of noise and periodic damping. The system is composed by two paths connecting a source and a sink, the dynamics is governed by equations that usually describe food search of the paradigmatic Physarum polycephalum. In this work we assume that the two paths undergo damping whose relative strength is periodically modulated in time and analyse the dynamics in the presence of stochastic forces simulating Gaussian noise. We identify different responses depending on the modulation frequency and on the noise amplitude. At frequencies smaller than the mean dissipation rate, the system tends to switch to the path which minimizes dissipation. Synchronous switching occurs at an optimal noise amplitude which depends on the modulation frequency. This behaviour disappears at larger frequencies, where the dynamics can be described by the time-averaged equations. Here, we find metastable patterns that exhibit the features of noise-induced resonances.

We develope a theoretical framework, based on exclusion process, that is motivated by a biological phenomenon called transcript slippage (TS). In this model a discrete lattice represents a DNA strand while each of the particles that hop on it unidire
ctionally, from site to site, represents a RNA polymerase (RNAP). While walking like a molecular motor along a DNA track in a step-by-step manner, a RNAP simultaneously synthesizes a RNA chain; in each forward step it elongates the nascent RNA molecule by one unit, using the DNA track also as the template. At some special slippery position on the DNA, which we represent as a defect on the lattice, a RNAP can lose its grip on the nascent RNA and the latters consequent slippage results in a final product that is either longer or shorter than the corresponding DNA template. We develope an exclusion model for RNAP traffic where the kinetics of the system at the defect site captures key features of TS events. We demonstrate the interplay of the crowding of RNAPs and TS. A RNAP has to wait at the defect site for longer period in a more congested RNAP traffic, thereby increasing the likelihood of its suffering a larger number of TS events. The qualitative trends of some of our results for a simple special case of our model are consistent with experimental observations. The general theoretical framework presented here will be useful for guiding future experimental queries and for analysis of the experimental data with more detail
We use symbolic dynamics to study discrete adaptive games, such as the minority game and the El Farol Bar problem. We show that no such game can have deterministic chaos. We put upper bounds on the statistical complexity and period of these games; th
e former is at most linear in the number agents and the size of their memories. We extend our results to cases where the players have infinite-duration memory (they are still non-chaotic) and to cases where there is ``noise in the play (leaving the complexity unchanged or even reduced). We conclude with a mechanism that can reconcile our findings with the phenomenology, and reflections on the merits of simple models of mutual adaptation.
Here we present a model for a small system combined with an explicit entropy bath that is comparably small. The dynamics of the model is defined by a simple matrix, M. Each row of M corresponds to a macrostate of the system, e.g. net alignment, while
the elements in the row represent microstates. The constant number of elements in each row ensures constant entropy, which allows reversible fluctuations, similar to information theory where a constant number of bits allows reversible computations. Many elements in M come from the microstates of the system, but many others come from the bath. Bypassing the bath states yields fluctuations that exhibit standard white noise; whereas with bath states the power spectral density varies as S(f)~1/f over a wide range of frequencies, f. Thus, the explicit entropy bath is the mechanism of 1/f noise in this model. Both forms of the model match Crooks fluctuation theorem exactly, indicating that the theorem applies not only to infinite reservoirs, but also to finite-sized baths. The model is used to analyze measurements of 1/f-like noise from a sub-micron tunnel junction.
Contrary to many recent models of growing networks, we present a model with fixed number of nodes and links, where it is introduced a dynamics favoring the formation of links between nodes with degree of connectivity as different as possible. By appl
ying a local rewiring move, the network reaches equilibrium states assuming broad degree distributions, which have a power law form in an intermediate range of the parameters used. Interestingly, in the same range we find non-trivial hierarchical clustering.
Totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) was originally introduced as a model for the traffic-like collective movement of ribosomes on a messenger RNA (mRNA) that serves as the track for the motor-like forward stepping of individual riboso
mes. In each step, a ribosome elongates a protein by a single unit using the track also as a template for protein synthesis. But, pre-fabricated, functionally competent, ribosomes are not available to begin synthesis of protein; a subunit directionally scans the mRNA in search of the pre-designated site where it is supposed to bind with the other subunit and begin the synthesis of the corresponding protein. However, because of `leaky scanning, a fraction of the scanning subunits miss the target site and continue their search beyond the first target. Sometimes such scanners successfully identify the site that marks the site for initiation of the synthesis of a different protein. In this paper, we develop an exclusion model, with three interconvertible species of hard rods, to capture some of the key features of these biological phenomena and study the effects of the interference of the flow of the different species of rods on the same lattice. More specifically, we identify the meantime for the initiation of protein synthesis as appropriate mean {it first-passage} time that we calculate analytically using the formalism of backward master equations. In spite of the approximations made, our analytical predictions are in reasonably good agreement with the numerical data that we obtain by performing Monte Carlo simulations. We also compare our results with a few experimental facts reported in the literature and propose new experiments for testing some of our new quantitative predictions.
