Complex Dynamics Enabled by Basic Neural Features
(2020-06-12)In this thesis we aimed at understanding the fundamental properties of features commonly used in models of theoretical neuroscience from a dynamical systems' perspective. Dynamical system theory was developed while studying ... -
Computational modeling of neuronal circuits: heterogeneous connectivity and nonlinear transformation in olfactory processing
(2015-05-05)The first processing circuit in the olfactory system (antennal lobe or olfactory bulb) exhibits several astonishing nonlinear features, but how these characteristics emerge collectively in olfaction remains an open question. ... -
Dynamic fitness and horizontal gene transfer in stochastic evolutionary dynamics
(2013-03-12)The evolution of species is shaped by processes such as selection, mutations or genetic drift. Still, we are far away from a complete understanding of how these processes drive evolutionary dynamics in detail. Therefore, ... -
Network Dynamics as an Inverse Problem
(2016-12-16)In this thesis, we take a general view on the study of networks from inverse perspectives. By proposing a general representation for the dynamics of networks in terms of explicit dependencies among units, we develop new ... -
Network Formation and Dynamics under Economic Constraints
(2018-03-26)Networks describe a broad range of systems across a wide variety of topics from social and economic interactions over technical infrastructures such as power grids and the internet to biological contexts such as food webs ... -
Perturbation Growth and Prediction of Extreme Events
(2018-11-15)Extreme events occur in a variety of dynamical systems. Here we employ quantifiers of chaos to identify changes in the dynamical structure of complex systems preceding an extreme event. -
Synchronization and Stability in Dynamical Models of Power Supply Networks
(2015-01-13)We are currently witnessing a change of electrical power supply from conventional power generation to power generation based on renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power. The main differences between these two ... -
Topological Optimization in Network Dynamical Systems
(2011-04-05)In this thesis we look at results concerning two separate topics.The first topic belongs to the general problem of reconstruction of interaction networks using only per-site information. ... -
Universal Computation and Memory by Neural Switching
(2011-10-21)Complex heteroclinic networks of connected saddle states persistently emerge in a broad range of dynamical systems and may reliably encode ``memory items'' as specific switching trajectories. ...
