1 cze 2022 · Information and entropy unify the notion of geometry and energy in all biological systems (Crofts 2007; Jost 2022). The notion of entropy in the 'disorder' sense (Altieri et al. 2019) relates...
Geometry, information, dynamics, etc., that is, fundamental concepts that emerged in the introduction, are mathematical concepts. We shall consequently systematically draw upon mathematical thinking. To put this into perspective, let us first discuss the general question of what mathematics can contribute to biology.
These geometric morphometric (GM) methods focus on the retention of geometric information throughout a study and provide efficient, statistically powerful analyses that can readily relate...
Biology offers a rich variety of topics that are amenable to mathematical modeling, and I have chosen specific topics that I have found to be the most interesting.
(Three-dimensional) geometry: The fact that life occurs in three-dimensional space is important, but often not addressed at all in theoretical biology. It is, however, clearly expressed and explored in Bailly and Longo ( 2011 ). 3D enables, facilitates and/or constrains biological processes.
20 lis 2023 · Includes links to around 300 video animations, accessible via QR codes. Compact, informative, and easy-to-understand explanations of scientific issues in the disciplines of geometry, physics, and biology. With numerous images and illustrations.
Russell and Guibas present the first application of so-called geometric spanners (geometric graphs with a sparse set of edges which approximate the n(n-1)/2 interatom distances with paths) to the segmentation of folding trajectories.
