The soap froth provides an idealised example of a cellular structure, which evolves or coarsens over laboratory time-scales and for which topological measures appear to provide an intuitive characterisation. However, froth is an intrinsically non-equilibrium system, and topological measures are...

Using singular spectrum analysis (SSA), we model the realized volatility and logarithmic standard deviations of two important futures return series. The realized volatility and logarithmic standard deviations are constructed following the methodology of Andersen et al. [J. Am. Stat. Ass. 96...

Mathematical models are very useful in analyzing the spread and control of infectious diseases which can be used to predict the developing tendency of the infectious disease, determine the key factors and to seek the optimum strategies of disease control. As a result, we investigated the pattern...

Evolutionary games can model dilemmas for which cooperation can exist in rational populations. According to intuition, memory of the history can help individuals to overcome the dilemma and increase cooperation. However, here we show that no such general predictions can be made for dilemma games...
