Mathematics of Epidemics on Networks
It looks like that finally a monograph about mathematical approaches to the modeling of epidemic spread on networks is written and will be published in May, 2017. Here is the publisher’s web page. Here is Table of contents. Really looking … Continue reading
Literature for Mathematics of Networks
I got to the middle of my course Mathematics of Networks, and definitely a lot of things are much clearer for me now than they were before. I am not sure I will be able to cover some applied aspects … Continue reading
Books and manuals for the computer algebra systems
For many years I tried to pick the best possible book or manual on different computer algebra systems. This post is a personal account of different sources I used as manuals. The first computer algebra system that I was extensively using … Continue reading
Applied category theory?
Category is a most abstract mathematical notion, which, however, found its way to computer science and physics, for example. Here is an attempt to present the category theory for a broader audience. Abstract: There are many books designed to introduce … Continue reading
Mathematical Tools for Understanding Infectious Disease Dynamics
by Odo Diekmann, Hans Heesterbeek, and Tom Britton. I already had a very short announcement about this book. Now I had a chance to look through it and here are my two … Continue reading
Evolution: Making Sense of Life
This is a new book on evolution for Biology majors, written by a scientific journalist and a researcher. Here is a link. The publisher is the same that published an absolutely wonderful book Elements of evolutionary genetics.
Interesting mathematical topics arising from Biology
Here is a thread from mathoverflow.net about interesting topics arising from biology. The answers in the thread themselves are not that informative but there are some really good references. In particular, there is a reference to a collection of papers on linking … Continue reading
The Logic of Chance by Eugene Koonin
The Logic of Chance by Eugene Koonin now can be found on any internet site selling books (and on many other sites as well). This book gives a synthetic (albeit quite personal) view of the modern evolutionary biology. A significant part of the book … Continue reading

Non-adaptive origins of genome complexity
Ariel Fernandez and Michael Lynch have published the paper “Non-adaptive origins of interactome complexity”. The paper is open access, in short it argues that the complexity of our (i.e., of multicellular eukaryotes) protein-protein interaction networks is due to the random non-adaptive processes, … Continue reading
Elements of evolutionary genetics
At last I got my own copy of the book by Brian and Deborah Charlesworth. This book, which summarizes our knowledge on the methods of theoretical evolutionary genetics, is a perfect example why biologists should learn mathematics. The book does … Continue reading
