Spatial competition and repulsion: pattern formation and the role of movement
This chapter investigates some mechanisms behind pattern formation driven by competitive-only or repelling interactions, and explores how these patterns are influenced by different types of particle movement. Despite competition and repulsion are both anti-crowding interactions, collective effects may lead to clusters of individuals, which can arrange periodically. Through the analysis of two models, it provides insights into the similarities and differences in the patterns formed and underlines the role of movement in shaping the spatial distribution of biological populations.

Pattern formation and coarsening dynamics in apparent competition models
Apparent competition is an indirect interaction between species that share natural resources without any mutual aggression but negatively affect each other if there is a common enemy. The negative results of the apparent…
Complex pattern formation driven by the interaction of stable fronts in a competition-diffusion system
The ecological invasion problem in which a weaker exotic species invades an ecosystem inhabited by two strongly competing native species is modelled by a three-species competition-diffusion system. It is known that for a…
Enhanced species coexistence in Lotka-Volterra competition models due to nonlocal interactions
We introduce and analyze a spatial Lotka-Volterra competition model with local and nonlocal interactions. We study two alternative classes of nonlocal competition that differ in how each species' characteristics determin…

We consider dimensionality reduction methods for face recognition in a supervised setting, using an image-as-matrix representation. A common procedure is to project image matrices into a smaller space in which the recogn…
