Sudden cardiac arrest and a problem in topology [PDF]
The Journal of the Australian Mathematical Society. Series B. Applied Mathematics, 1991 AbstractIn the May 1983 issue of Scientific American, A.T. Winfree published an article which gave an explanation of sudden cardiac arrest in terms of topology. His topological argument was modified in his 1987 book called “When time breaks down”. In this paper we fill what appears to be a gap in Winfree's topological arguments.
