Spatial models of bistability in biological collectives [PDF]
2007 46th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, 2007 We explore collective behavior in biological systems using a cooperative control framework. In particular, we study a hysteresis phenomenon in which a collective switches from circular to parallel motion under slow variation of the neighborhood size in which individuals tend to align with one another.

Lattice-gas model for collective biological motion [PDF]
Physical Review E, 1995 A simple self-driven lattice-gas model for collective biological motion is introduced. We find weakly first order phase transition from individual random walks to collective migration. A mean-field theory is presented to support the numerical results.
