Lecture #7: Morphogenesis in Cellular Dynamical Systems

• History of computational morphogenesis
• Prehistory: newton, d'alembert, euler, fourier, rashevsky, turing
• History: prigogine group (herschkowitz-kauffman), BZ, brux
• Lattices of monostable periodic and chaotic attractors and bistable systems
• What is a cell dyn sys (space, lattice, std cell (a scheme), neighbors coupling, laplacean exm
• Experimental results
• Exm A: brusselator lattice
• Exm B: logistic lattice
• Visualization using the response diagram
• the Zeeman method
