Archaeological and Anthropological SciencesAbstractMathematical models of agricultural spread use distances between birthplaces of parents and their children (often called “birthplace distances”). However, the difficulty to find those distances for pre-industrial farmers has often led to the use of other kinds of distances.

Solidity of viscous liquids II: Anisotropic flow events
, 1999 Recent findings on the displacements in the surroundings of isotropic flow events in viscous liquids [Phys. Rev. E, to appear Feb. 1999] are generalized to the anisotropic case.

Subdiffusion-limited reactions
, 2001 We consider the coagulation dynamics A+A -> A and A+A A and the annihilation dynamics A+A -> 0 for particles moving subdiffusively in one dimension. This scenario combines the "anomalous kinetics" and "anomalous diffusion" problems, each of which leads ...

Halting viruses in scale-free networks
, 2002 The vanishing epidemic threshold for viruses spreading on scale-free networks indicate that traditional methods, aiming to decrease a virus' spreading rate cannot succeed in eradicating an epidemic.

A view of the neolithic demic diffusion in Europe through two Y chromosome-specific markers. [PDF]
Am J Hum Genet, 1996 This study has revealed two distinct Y-chromosome markers, the pl2f2-8-kb allele, specific to Caucasoids and the 49af-Ht 15, specific to Europeans, which are valuable to detect genetic admixtures. They show an opposite gradient of frequencies from the Near East to western Europe, illustrating well the "wave of advance" of the neolithic demic expansion ...

Interpreting the demic diffusion of early farming in Europe with a three-population model
Human Population Genetics and GenomicsIn 1971, Ammerman and Cavalli-Sforza demonstrated that reaction-diffusion equations could be usefully applied to the archaeological question of the spread of early farming in Europe. Their basic premise was demic diffusion, i.e., the iterative short-range colonization of virgin land by the descendants of the original Near Eastern farmers.
