Multiscale Modeling & Simulation, 2015 The paper introduces the butterfly factorization as a data-sparse approximation for the matrices that satisfy a complementary low-rank property. The factorization can be constructed efficiently if either fast algorithms for applying the matrix and its adjoint are available or the entries of the matrix can be sampled individually.

Non-random dispersal in the butterfly Maniola jurtina: implications for metapopulation models [PDF]
, 2000 The dispersal patterns of animals are important in metapopulation ecology because they affect the dynamics and survival of populations. Theoretical models assume random dispersal but little is known in practice about the dispersal behaviour of individual

Priors and Posteriors in Bayesian Timing of Divergence Analyses: The Age of Butterflies Revisited
Systematic Biology, 2019 The need for robust estimates of times of divergence is essential for downstream analyses, yet assessing this robustness is still rare. We generated a time-calibrated genus-level phylogeny of butterflies (Papilionoidea), including 994 taxa, up to 10 gene
