Let's break some structures imposed by higher-order interactions! We compute how things deform and what remains when continuous symmetries are broken. For now freely available at https://t.co/Xv6nAXkYyV (but also at arXiv:2408.02119). @AmsterdamDyn

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

A summary of the results are now also part of a Oxford Mathematics Research Case Study: https://t.co/e83nIv4vIz

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

New paper with @math_martens on "Multiple timescale dynamics of network adaptation with constraints" now available Open Access in Chaos: https://t.co/uUVeiBMaN6

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

The nice summary "Reducing the dimensions of adaptive networks" for a broader audience was published alongside the paper at https://t.co/YIOJbTm61S

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

"Higher-order phase reduction for delay-coupled oscillators beyond the phase-shift approximation" now on the arXiv at https://t.co/EbDexFu2xv.

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

Ever wondered how many points converge to a heteroclinic network in an aperiodic way? https://t.co/W4xlBvizPn

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

Fun collaborative project with @istvanzkiss and Peter Simon to understand how higher-order interactions affect the dynamics of contagion processes now out in J Math Bio: https://t.co/yuMnS541Bm

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

I am extremely excited that my Istvan Z. Kiss number now is one with multiplicity 2! @KissGroupSLU @istvanzkiss

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

Going #BeyondTheEdge in Aachen! Great fun catching up with @BeyondEdge_MSCA colleagues at the HOOC workshop organized by M Schaub: https://t.co/LxRmTUtZsv

[AmsterdamDynamics @AmsterdamDyn]

Workshop at the Amsterdam Center for Dynamics and Computation covers many facets of dynamical systems

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

Adaptive network dynamics are too high dimensional?Constrain! Or maybe adaptation may be naturally constrained to low-dimensional dynamics? Joint work with @math_martens now on the arXiv at https://t.co/714xrVngbh.

@days_europe Maybe I should use generative AI to plot any planar vector field in the style of ancient nails...

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

Ancient vector fields excavated close to @days_europe 2025 in Thessaloniki. It was a fun conference (just too short), see you in Lisbon next year!

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

If you couple two systems with bistability between oscillations of distinct effective frequencies, you have to make them different for the distinct states to synchronize in frequency. Work with @adilson_motter and @KissGroupSLU out in @ScienceAdvances. https://t.co/Z8iZiht5nJ

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

Come to the Focus Session "Network Dynamical Systems" at @NetSciConf Friday afternoon for a free copy of Bear Networks! https://t.co/UgfHl85U5K #NetSci2025

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

Join us July 9-11 at @AmsterdamDyn to celebrate dynamical systems theory and application as well as two 0 mod 10 birthdays! Register now at https://t.co/jrtXH7Txnv

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

About a week left to apply (through May 5) for a fully-funded PhD position on the collective dynamics on networks at @AmsterdamDyn. Come to Amsterdam to join the Emergence at All Scales consortium led by @EmergenceDIEP. Please share!

[Christian Bick @BickMath]

Come join the Amsterdam Center for Dynamics and Computation @AmsterdamDyn! Bob Rink and I are recruiting a PhD student to work on network dynamics as part of the consortium Emergence at All Scales (https://t.co/DftChop2Wd). Apply by May 5, 2025 through https://t.co/MyuWEJmle5
