Evolutionary Self-Organization in Complex Fluids, SFI Working Papers
Excerpt: This paper explores the ability of molecular evolution to take control of collective physical phases, making the first decisive step from independent replicators towards cell-like collective structures. We develop a physical model of replicating combinatorial molecules in a ternary fluid of hydrocarbons, amphiphiles, and water. (...)
