A flock of a quadratic cone is a partition of a quadratic cone minus its vertex (in 3-dimensional projective space) into plane conics. These objects give rise to a lot of other interesting objects such as translation planes, elation generalized quadrangles, (herds of) ovals, ovoids, regular hyperbolic fibrations, etc. If the associated functions of the

Flocks, herds, and schools: A quantitative theory of flocking [PDF]
We present a quantitative continuum theory of ``flocking'': the collective coherent motion of large numbers of self-propelled organisms. Our model predicts the existence of an ``ordered phase'' of flocks, in which all members of the flock move together with the same mean velocity.
