Physarum polycephalum: Smart Network Adaptation
Annual Review of Condensed Matter PhysicsLife evolved organisms to adapt dynamically to their environment and autonomously exhibit behaviors. Although complex behaviors in organisms are typically associated with the capability of neurons to process information, the unicellular organism Physarum polycephalum disabuses us by solving complex tasks despite being just a single although gigantic ...

Control of chemotaxis in Physarum polycephalum. [PDF]
The Journal of cell biology, 1976 Plasmodia migrate towards those situations which increase the frequency of their alternations in streaming, and away from those which decrease the frequency. Therefore peristalsis-like waves in Physarum move in the direction opposite from the net movement of the organism. The mechanism is fundamentally related to other known types of chemotaxis.

Multistable Physical Neural Networks
Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2025.This article presents the integration of mechanical bistability into physical neural networks (PNNs), enabling memory retention and bridging computation with physical action. By mapping the equilibrium states of bistable, liquid‐filled chambers, it explores stability and introduces global and local training algorithms.

Physarum Polycephalum Syllogistic L-Systems and Judaic Roots of Unconventional Computing
Studies in Logic, Grammar and Rhetoric, 2016 We show that in Kabbalah, the esoteric teaching of Judaism, there were developed ideas of unconventional automata in which operations over characters of the Hebrew alphabet can simulate all real processes producing appropriate strings in accordance with ...

Effective mixing due to oscillatory laminar flow in tubular networks of plasmodial slime moulds
New Journal of Physics, 2020 The plasmodium of the unicellular slime mould Physarum polycephalum forms an extended vascular network in which protoplasm is transported through the giant cell due to peristaltic pumping. The flow in the veins is always parabolic and it performs shuttle
