The human brain is a network containing a hundred billion neurons, each communicating with several thousand others. As the wiring for neuronal communication draws on limited space and energy resources, evolution had to optimize their use. This principle of minimizing wiring costs explains many features of brain architecture, including placement ...

When computational constraints prohibit model evaluation at all but a small number of parameter settings, a dimension-reduced emulator of the system can be constructed and interrogated at arbitrary parameter regimes. Existing approaches to emulation consider models with deterministic output. However, in many cases the underlying mathematical mod...

We build a multi-agent economic model as a dynamical system on a compact set, and show that the market instability is closely related to the leverage. The higher the leverage the greater the reaction of market participants to changes in their wealth. This gives rise to a bifurcation mechanism, and eventually a strong dynamical instability in cap...
