Density regulation in strictly metric-free swarms
There is now experimental evidence that nearest-neighbour interactions in flocks of birds are metric free, i.e. they have no characteristic interaction length scale. However, models that involve interactions between neighbours that are assigned topologically are naturally invariant under spatial expansion, supporting a continuous reduction in density towards zero, unless additional cohesive int...
متن کاملFree Basis Consisting of Strictly Small Sections
Let X be a d-dimensional projective arithmetic variety and L an invertible sheaf on X . We fix a C∞-hermitian metric | · | of L. In Arakelov geometry, we frequently ask whether H(X,L) has a free basis consisting of strictly small sections. However, we know few about this problem in general. For example, Zhang [7] proved that H(X,nL) possesses a free basis as above for n ≫ 1 if the following con...
متن کاملClustering by density in any metric space
Given a distance matrix on X , establishing partitions (all the elements are clustered in disjoint classes) is generally made optimizing a criterion over the set of all the partitions with a number of classes that must be indicated. In this paper, we investigate a different approach. From the distance matrix, we first build a valued graph Γ = (X,E), for each vertex a density function De is eval...
متن کاملDecentralized probabilistic density control of autonomous swarms with safety constraints
This paper presents a Markov chain based approach for the probabilistic density control of a large number, swarm, of autonomous agents. The proposed approach specifies the time evolution of the probabilistic density distribution by using a Markov chain, which guides the swarm to a desired steady-state distribution, while satisfying the prescribed ergodicity, motion, and safety constraints. This...
متن کاملTargeting male mosquito swarms to control malaria vector density
Malaria control programs are being jeopardized by the spread of insecticide resistance in mosquito vector populations. It has been estimated that the spread of resistance could lead to an additional 120000 deaths per year, and interfere with the prospects for sustained control or the feasibility of achieving malaria elimination. Another complication for the development of resistance management ...
