Publications

  • Paper 2025.10: A paper by Group B02 (Mathematical Informatics) was published in Physical Review E. It presents a graph‑coarse‑graining method for chemical reaction hypergraphs based on conserved quantities and explores relationships to thermodynamic variables. The method is expected to streamline analysis of diverse reaction assemblies. → [LINK]
  • Paper 2025.09: A study by Group A02 that established a quantitative method for Cyclin–CDK complex dissociation was published in Journal of Cell Science, advancing quantitative understanding of cell‑cycle control. → [LINK]
  • Paper 2025.09: A theoretical study by Group B01 on proliferating self‑propelled particle systems was published in Physical Review Research, demonstrating emergence of ordered motion without alignment interactions. → [LINK]
  • Paper 2025.09: A theoretical work by Group B01 proposing light‑induced nonreciprocal spin interactions in solids appeared in Nature Communications. This suggests the possibility of realizing, within solids, the physics of nonreciprocal interactions seen in biological and ecological systems. → [Original][Commentary]
  • Paper 2025.09: Group B02 (Mathematical Informatics) published in PRX Life a general control theory for deriving optimal control laws in diverse biological populations, providing a methodology to analyze functional acquisition of biological assemblies from an optimization perspective. → [LINK]
  • Paper 2025.04: An article by core members 澤井・梅津 was published in the April issue of Experimental Medicine, covering topics closely related to this Area. → [LINK]
