Date: 2025/01/23, Thursday; Location: MH:333
Speaker: Richard Pates, Department of Automatic Control, LTH
Title: Scalable Control System Design: What we can do and what we can't
Abstract: In this talk we will informally discuss the dynamics of some large-scale engineering systems, including electrical power systems and vehicle platoons. Through simple mechanical analogies we will try to gain insight into their emergent behaviours. We will use this to develop scalable strategies for control system design, as well as to understand what cannot be controlled based on local measurements.

Title: Phase-based perspectives on oscillators: from inferring dynamics to dimensionality reduction
Abstract: Oscillations arise in many settings — from neuronal firing to chemical reactions — across biology, chemistry, and engineering. A powerful way to analyze them is by focusing on their phase, which highlights universal features and simplifies the dynamical description. With fewer parameters, phase-based methods make it easier to tackle inverse problems, such as inferring the underlying dynamics and network connections from data. Phase analysis also provides a solid basis for rigorous mathematical work, including mean-field descriptions and dimensionality reduction — collapsing large ensembles of oscillators into just a few key variables. Recent progress extends these ideas to two-dimensional (complex) oscillators, beyond the usual one-dimensional models. Taken together, these perspectives show how complex oscillatory systems can be better understood and controlled.

Date: 2025/03/20 Thursday; Location: MH:333
Speaker: Emma Tegling, Dept. Automatic Control, LTH
Title: On surprising structural and dynamical properties of degree-bounded networks
Abstract: In control problems for network systems, we aim to achieve global control objectives through distributed controllers that are limited in their sensing, actuation and connectivity. Ideally, the system’s behavior should also be scalable – its performance should be uniform with respect to the network size. In this talk, I will highlight situations where these objectives cannot be met due to fundamental limitations that apply in systems defined over non-expanding graphs. Motivated by this problem, we study a random growing graph process subject to degree bounds, which turns out to have interesting degree distributions, expansion and other properties. I will show how these results can in principle be exploited in network control problems, such as vehicular platooning or electric power systems, but also discuss their network-scientific interpretations.

Speaker: Magnus Aspenberg, Centre for Mathematical Science, LTH
Title: How Antibiotic Spectrum Influences Resistance Evolution
Abstract: In this talk I will outline some recent work together with E. A. Martens and K. Wollein Waldetoft, on the evolution of resistance in large microbal communitites. It is an important question in clinical treatment with antibiotics whether one should use broad or narrow spectrum of the antibiotics, i.e., if the antibiotics should target many (broad spectrum) or few (narrow spectrum) bacteria. Since all the bacteria interact in a complex manner with each other, it is not clear what the outcome is on a specific resistant bacteria, under the presence of antibiotics. We want to build a mathematical model for the evolution of resistance in communities of bacteria, based on the generalised Lotka-Volterra equations. Given the interactions between bacteria, we can conclude which bacteria should be targeted by antibiotics in order to minimize resistance growth.

NetDyn 2024: International Workshop on Network Dynamics, August 26, 2024.
Location: Room: MH:333. Centre for Mathematical Science, Lund University, Sweden
Date/Time: Monday August 26, 2024, starting at 9.00.
This 1-day workshop comprises a series of talks on network dynamical systems.
We discuss recent advances in mathematics, but also keep a focus on applications in biology and technology, such as neuroscience, power grids, cognition and others.
A special focus lies in the study of adaptive networks, i.e., where dynamics occur on both the nodes (vertices) and links (edges) on a network (graph) and may co-depend --- co-evolutionary networks in short.
The Network Network (TNN): This meeting is a networking and kickstart event. An important goal of the workshop is to connect researchers with interest in network theory and dynamics, inside and outside of Lund University together to create a platform to discuss theory and applications of networks and exchange ideas to collaborate. We will have a session to discuss possibilities for a continuation of regular activities related to networks and dynamical systems, such as a lecture series.

Date/Time: Tue May 30 and Wed May 31, 9.00-11.30 (break: 10.00-10.30)
The mini-workshop comprises of a series of talks on network dynamical systems spread over two half-days. Focus of the workshop is the study of adaptive networks, i.e., where dynamics occurs on both the nodes (vertices) and links (edges) on a network (graph) and may co-depend --- co-evolutionary networks in short. We discuss recent advances in the mathematical treatment and analysis in the finite and continuum limit descriptions (using graph operators) and applications in simplified as well as more realistic model applications, in particular, leaning towards applications in neuronal biological networks. Represented research fields include dynamical systems and bifurcation theory, graph theory, statistical physics, mathematical neuroscience, experimental neuroscience.

International Workshop: Oscillations, Transients and Fluctuations in Complex Networks (OTFCN), July 1-3, 2019
OTFCN Workshop Website
Networks pervade all areas in nature and technology, from statistical physics over engineering to biology, from small to large. Complex networks play a vital role in in our every-day lives, coordinating complex interactions on the level of cells, organisms and of society. Interacting units in such networks are for instance wind turbine generators, neurons, and pacemaker cells in the heart. Such systems may exhibit collective dynamics such as synchronization and thus serve functions such as information processing in the brain or robust delivery of power in the electric grid. Depending on the context, the emergence or destruction of collective behaviors may be desired or undesired. However, these systems must often operate in a non-steady, out-of-equilibrium state; in fact, they are constantly subject to varying levels of (stochastic) fluctuations and heterogeneities which may lead to non-uniform dynamic behaviors within the network. This interdisciplinary workshop gathers researchers from biology, technology, physics and mathematics to better understand how fluctuations and transients spread through networks and affect their dynamics. We discuss the state-of the-art and emerging problems concerning dynamic interactions in complex dynamic networks, such as power grid dynamics, transport networks, brain/neural dynamics, systems biology from cell to body level, and the mathematical/physical theory of oscillation and network dynamics.
This is a collaboration with the Technical University of Denmark and the University of Copenhagen.

Date/Time: Tue May 30 and Wed May 31, 9.00-11.30 (break: 10.00-10.30)
The mini-workshop comprises of a series of talks on network dynamical systems spread over two half-days. Focus of the workshop is the study of adaptive networks, i.e., where dynamics occurs on both the nodes (vertices) and links (edges) on a network (graph) and may co-depend --- co-evolutionary networks in short. We discuss recent advances in the mathematical treatment and analysis in the finite and continuum limit descriptions (using graph operators) and applications in simplified as well as more realistic model applications, in particular, leaning towards applications in neuronal biological networks. Represented research fields include dynamical systems and bifurcation theory, graph theory, statistical physics, mathematical neuroscience, experimental neuroscience.

International Workshop: Oscillations, Transients and Fluctuations in Complex Networks (OTFCN), July 1-3, 2019
OTFCN Workshop Website
Networks pervade all areas in nature and technology, from statistical physics over engineering to biology, from small to large. Complex networks play a vital role in in our every-day lives, coordinating complex interactions on the level of cells, organisms and of society. Interacting units in such networks are for instance wind turbine generators, neurons, and pacemaker cells in the heart. Such systems may exhibit collective dynamics such as synchronization and thus serve functions such as information processing in the brain or robust delivery of power in the electric grid. Depending on the context, the emergence or destruction of collective behaviors may be desired or undesired. However, these systems must often operate in a non-steady, out-of-equilibrium state; in fact, they are constantly subject to varying levels of (stochastic) fluctuations and heterogeneities which may lead to non-uniform dynamic behaviors within the network. This interdisciplinary workshop gathers researchers from biology, technology, physics and mathematics to better understand how fluctuations and transients spread through networks and affect their dynamics. We discuss the state-of the-art and emerging problems concerning dynamic interactions in complex dynamic networks, such as power grid dynamics, transport networks, brain/neural dynamics, systems biology from cell to body level, and the mathematical/physical theory of oscillation and network dynamics.
This is a collaboration with the Technical University of Denmark and the University of Copenhagen.

The B-Science Club
.. a collective to foster an exchange platform for science-minded
people and ideas across scientific fields ...
Have you ever felt like discussing informally over a beer your latest:
- crazy scientific idea,
- frontier science,
- or the complex natural systems that surrounds us?
This is a place to exchange ideas, cross scientific disciplines, build
bridges/collaborations between different institutions, talk about
stochastic highly non-linear academic politics, ...
We invite you to join us for a coffee or beer, or tea regardless whether you are a student, a postdoc, a
professor, or just anyone sharing an eager interest in science.
Note: This is a past event.
