European Journal of Combinatorics, 2001 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

Stochastic modelling of bird flocks – accounting for the cohesiveness of collective motion
, 2022 Collective behaviour can be difficult to discern because it is not limited to animal aggregations such as flocks of birds and schools of fish wherein individuals spontaneously move in the same way despite the absence of leadership. Insect swarms are, for
