Limit cycles, biological networks

Physical processes Order-disorder structures, ordered-phase transitions, symmetry breaking, spontaneous magnetization, non-equilibrium crystallization phenomena, percolation, electrodeposition, formation of dissipative structures, turbulence and instabilities in fluid dynamics, and diffusion-limited aggregation process. Biological processes Excitation in muscles, pulsation of heart, calcium waves, natural fold-up of protein molecules, deposition of lipid bilayers, auto-regulation of homeostasis morphogenesis, hyper-cycles and autocatalytic networks, etc.
