A model with Darwinian dynamics on a rugged landscape
We discuss the population dynamics with selection and random diffusion, keeping the total population constant, in a fitness landscape associated with Constraint Satisfaction, a paradigm for difficult optimization problems. We obtain a phase diagram in terms of the size of the population and the diffusion rate, with a glass phase inside which the dynamics keeps searching for better configurations, and outside which deleterious `mutations' spoil the performance. The phase diagram is analogous to that of dense active matter in terms of temperature and drive.

Scale-invariance of ruggedness measures in fractal fitness landscapes
The paper deals with using chaos to direct trajectories to targets and analyzes ruggedness and fractality of the resulting fitness landscapes. The targeting problem is formulated as a dynamic fitness landscape and four d…
Modularity Enhances the Rate of Evolution in a Rugged Fitness Landscape
Biological systems are modular, and this modularity affects the evolution of biological systems over time and in different environments. We here develop a theory for the dynamics of evolution in a rugged, modular fitness…
Understanding how chromatin folding and enzyme competition affect rugged epigenetic landscapes
Epigenetics plays a key role in cellular differentiation and maintaining cell identity, enabling cells to regulate their genetic activity without altering the DNA sequence. Epigenetic regulation occurs within the context…
Simulating short- and long-term evolutionary dynamics on rugged landscapes
We propose a minimal model to simulate long waiting times followed by evolutionary bursts on rugged landscapes. It combines point and inversions-like mutations as sources of genetic variation. The inversions are intended…
Impact of population size on early adaptation in rugged fitness landscapes
Due to stochastic fluctuations arising from finite population size, known as genetic drift, the ability of a population to explore a rugged fitness landscape depends on its size. In the weak mutation regime, while the me…
