The Structure and Function of Complex Networks (2003, background): “The edited volumes by Bornholdt and Schuster [70] and by Pastor-Satorras and Rubi [330] both contain contributed essays on various topics by leading researchers.”
Why We Need a Generalized Darwinism, And Why Generalized Darwinism is Not Enough (2006, background): “In the absence of emergent hypercycles, there would be no positive feedback for growth, implying that metabolic networks would simply die out (Eigen and Schuster, 1979; Hofbauer and Sigmund, 1998; Kauffman, 1993).”
Evolutionary games on graphs (2006, background): “2005). These results suggest that the stability of very complex ecological and catalytic chemical systems can be enhanced by cycles in the spatio-temporal pattern [for an early survey see the book by Eigen and Schuster (1979)]. The above six-species states can be viewed as composite associations, wh”
Rogue waves and their generating mechanisms in different physical contexts (2013, background): “Local domains of the cavity field are coupled with other, and distant, domains, thus introducing large loops of amplification, a mechanism similar to the hyper-cycle chain of reactions in the catalytic processes [14].”
A survey on bio-inspired networking (2010, background): “First modeling approaches date back to the early 1970ies [44, 45].”
Alternative Ways to Become a Juvenile or a Definitive Phenotype (and on Some Persisting Linguistic Offenses) (2004, methodology): “But rereading the book after the interpretations by Capra (1975) and Jantsch (1980) I began to understand the relationships; this understanding was later enhanced by the writings of Eigen & Schuster (1979), Maturana & Varela (1988) and Gottlieb (1992).”
Causal architecture, complexity and self-organization in time series and cellular automata (2001, background): “The work of Eigen and Schuster (1979) and of Winfree (1980) were notable exceptions to this rule, since they were both early and genuinely explanatory.”
Ice structures, patterns, and processes: A view across the icefields (2012, background): “Biologically active molecules that are synthesized need to remain together in cellular structured compartments to be able to act in further evolutionary steps, e.g., to take part in selforganization during cyclic chemical processes, as proposed by Eigen and Schuster (1979).”
