The paper “Estimates for the dimension of attractors of a regularized Euler system with dissipation on a sphere“, co-authored by Sergey Zelik, Alexei Illyin (Keldysh Institute, Moscow), and Anna Kostianko (Imperial College London), has been published in Matematischeskie Zametki. The paper proves the existence of a global attractor of a regularized Euler–Bardina system with dissipation […]

The paper “Open quantum dynamics for plant motions“, authored by Dorje Brody, has been published in the Nature journal Scientific Reports.The paper makes the observation that equations governing the dynamics of open quantum systems are applicable in biology. As examples of dynamics in biology, motions of plants — specifically, heliotropism and gravitropism — are modelled, […]
