Sustainable replication and evolution of genetic molecules such as RNA are likely requisites
for the emergence of life; however, these processes are easily affected by the appearance of …

The alignment of striated intensity structures in thin neutral hydrogen (H i) spectroscopic
channels with Galactic magnetic fields has been observed. However, the origin and nature …

Collisionless shocks and plasma turbulence are crucial ingredients for a broad range of
astrophysical systems. The shock–turbulence interaction, and in particular the transmission …

Robust localization of self-reproducing autocatalytic chemistries is a key step in the
realization of heritable and evolvable chemical systems. While autocatalytic chemical …

Understanding internal vortex breakdowns (VBs) and their trajectories in sealed cylinders
are important for the scientific and industrial applications with which they are linked …

A discrete-time replicator map is a prototype of evolutionary selection game dynamical
models that have been very successful across disciplines in rendering insights into the …

The history of modern biochemistry started with the cellular theory of life. By putting aside the
holistic protoplasmic theory, scientists of the XX century were able to advance the functional …

The detailed transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) distribution, sinking behavior and the
potential mechanisms behind that were revealed in the upper 200 m water column of the …

Here, we consider a game-theoretic model of multilevel selection in which individuals
compete based on their payoff and groups also compete based on the average payoff of …

Synchronization, cooperation, and chaos are ubiquitous phenomena in nature. In a
population composed of many distinct groups of individuals playing the prisoner's dilemma …
