Half-Flips are 5-Avoidable

A word contains a half-flip if it contains non-empty factors [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text]. Fici reports a non-constructive proof of the existence of an infinite word over a finite alphabet avoiding half-flips and asks for the size of the s...

Determining a graph from its reconfiguration graph

Given a graph G and a natural number k , the k -recolouring graph C k ( G ) is the graph whose vertices are the k -colourings of G and whose edges link pairs of colourings which differ at exactly one vertex of G . Recently, Hogan et al. proved that G can be determined from C k (...

OpenAlea.HydroRoot: A modelling framework to dissect, predict and phenotype branched root hydraulic architecture

Abstract Drought is a significant factor in agricultural losses, making it imperative to understand how root system architecture (RSA) adapts to environmental condition like water deficit. HydroRoot is a functional-structural plant model (FSPM) aimed at analyzing and simulating h...
