Regulatory dynamics on random networks: asymptotic periodicity and modularity
We study the dynamics of discrete-time regulatory networks on random digraphs. For this we define ensembles of deterministic orbits of random regulatory networks, and introduce some statistical indicators related to the long-term dynamics of the system. We prove that, in a random regulatory network, initial conditions almost certainly converge to a periodic attractor. We study the subnetworks, ...
متن کاملOpen Regulatory Networks and Modularity
We study the dynamical properties of small regulatory networks treated as non autonomous dynamical systems called modules when working inside larger networks or, equivalently when subject to external signal inputs. Particular emphasis is put on the interplay between the internal properties of the open systems and the different possible inputs on them to deduce new functionalities of the modules...
متن کاملNetworks, dynamics, and modularity.
The identification of general principles relating structure to dynamics has been a major goal in the study of complex networks. We propose that the special case of linear network dynamics provides a natural framework within which a number of interesting yet tractable problems can be defined. We report the emergence of modularity and hierarchical organization in evolved networks supporting asymp...
متن کاملAsymptotic periodicity in networks of degrade-and-fire oscillators
Networks of coupled degrade-and-fire (DF) oscillators are simple dynamical models of assemblies of interacting self-repressing genes. For mean-field interactions, which most mathematical studies have assumed so far, every trajectory must approach a periodic orbit. Moreover, asymptotic cluster distributions can be computed explicitly in terms of coupling intensity, and a massive collection of di...
متن کاملModularity and Dynamics of Cellular Networks
Understanding how the phenotypes and behaviors of cells are controlled is one of the major challenges in biological research. Traditionally, focus has been given to the characterization of individual genes/proteins or individual interactions during cellular events. However, many phenotypes and behaviors cannot be attributed to isolated components. Rather, they arise from characteristics of cell...
