    Notes: Abstract A vast number of biologically important processes are based upon bimolecular systems. In these systems intermediate complexes are formed. Bimolecular systems in which no complex-complex interactions occur are called linear systems of complexes. A definition and some characteristic properties of these systems are given here. There may exist a contradiction of Onsager's principle of detailed balancing in these systems; however, no principal differences are found between the steady state behavior of an open system and that of a closed system. It is shown that the steady state behavior of a linear system of complexes of arbitrary complexity has some similarities with the steady state behavior of a simple bimolecular system, e.g., Michaelis-Menten enzymatic reaction. Multiplicity of action of the substances participating in biomolecular processes may produce some qualitative differences in the steady state behavior of the system.

    Notes: Abstract A time-dependent DNA histogram is calculated for an irradiated population of cells under the limiting assumption that the cells cannot pass through prophase due to the effects of the radiation. The population is assumed to increase exponentially prior to irradiation, but after irradiation to neither gain nor lose cells. Chromosome-number dispersion is taken into account in the calculation. The qualitative behavior of the calculated and experimental histograms are in reasonable agreement. The quantitative agreement between the two is relatively good at short post-irradiation times but is poor at long post-irradiation times (say, greater than half the doubling time). This suggests that recovery phenomena cannot be neglected at long post-irradiation times.

    Notes: Abstract It is pointed out that the three different stimuli for a corrective turn, namely the distance from the edge of the lane, the rate of approach to the edge, and the angle between the direction of the car and the direction of the lane (Bull. Math. Biophysics,28, 645–654, 1966,29, 181–186, 1967) may act all three simultaneously. It is found that in that case the tracking curve of the car is stable below a critical speed and becomes unstable above it.

    Notes: Abstract Continuing a previous study (Bull. Math. Biophysics, 28, 645–654, 1966), the biophysical mechanism of a corrective turn is investigated for the case where the stimulus for the corrective turn is produced not only by the perception of the nearness of an edge of the lane, but also by the rate of approach of the car towards the edge. In that case it is found that the tracking curve of the car may consist of a series of damped sinusoids and safe driving would be possible at any speed if it were not for the endogenous fluctuation in the driver's central nervous system. If the effect of the rate of approach increases sufficiently rapidly as the distance to the edge of the lane decreases, then a stable undamped oscillating tracking curve is possible. The case is also studied where the driver makes a corrective turn in response to a direct perception of the angle between the direction of the lane and the longitudinal axis of the car.

    Notes: Abstract The principle of minimal work requires that the conducting airways of the human lung should have a maximum radius for minimal resistance to gas flow. At the same time there is a requirement that the airways should have a minimal volume for economy of space. These two opposing requirements have been investigated mathematically, and a method for calculating the angle of branching which produces minimal volume has been derived. The relationship of the radii of the parent and daughter branches to produce minimal resistance has been similarly defined. By measurement of a bronchial cast from a human lung the extent to which the predicted optimum structure is realized in practice has been shown. The change in structure associated with change of function at the transition from conducting airway to diffusion zone has been demonstrated.

    Notes: Abstract This paper considers a class of set-theoretical entities, calledn-rank Linnaean structures, which are intended as abstract models of the taxonomic classificatory systems of biology. In the first part, devoted to formalism, finite Linnaean structures are discussed in complete generality; but, in addition, eight distinct subclasses are noted and some of the properties of their elements are explored. In the second part, concerned with applications, it is shown that taxonomic systems may be recast in the form of finite Linnaean structures, and an effort is made to show that some undesirable features of earlier models are avoided without artificiality and without abandoning extensional mathematics.

    Notes: Abstract Generalizing an idea of M. Richardson (Fundamentals of Mathematics, New York: Macmillan Co., 1958), an APS on a given populationP is a non-empty collection of non-empty subsets ofP such that ifA is in the collection andA⊆B, thenB is in the collection. From a structure of this kind a partial ordering ofP, called therelated bumping order, is derived. The question is raised as to what kinds of partial orderings can be so obtained. For structures determined by voting weights of the members of the population, a complete characterization of all possible bumping orders is obtained.

    Notes: Abstract The “second method” of Liapunov is used to perform a stability analysis of a mathematical model of the neuron. This analysis is based on the hypothesis that the firing of the neuron coincides with a temporary state of instability of the system, and that the initiation of all-or-none process depends on the magnitude of membrane depolarization and its first time derivative. It is found that the stability (and hence the possibility of a second firing) is restored approximately when the rate of membrane repolarization is at a maximum. This result predicts that the duration of the period of absolute refractoriness in neurons would be about 75 per cent of the spike duration, and thus shorter than the value usually obtained from experimental measurements.

    Notes: Abstract Some aspects of masking phenomena are considered in terms of the simplest possible model of two-factor neural elements. The effect of a number of variables can be accounted for, but the introduction of an internuncial element results in a masking function which need not be symmetric about zero delay interval. As an illustration, the results for a special case are compared with available data. In general, such a model results in a masking function which depends on the intensity, area, and duration of the stimuli, as well as on the temporal and spatial separation between them.
