Functional advantages of Lévy walks emerging near a critical point

2020-01-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4> A bstract </h4> A special class of random walks, so-called Lévy walks, has been observed in a variety of organisms ranging from cells, insects, fishes, and birds to mammals, including humans. Although their prevalence is considered to be a consequence of natural selection for higher search efficiency, some findings suggest that Lévy walks might also be epiphenomena that arise from interactions with the env...
