Bee swarm forming coherent patterns around flower letters

Birds, Bees, Butterflies and Bats!

These simulations demonstrate non-Markovian swarming across multiple species, each carrying coherence, rupture, and regeneration through its agents. The bees demo is the deepest implementation: it surfaces conjugacy products C·Ω and beauty-function readouts B(C) = exp(C/Ω)·(C*−C) directly in the telemetry, with Ω anchored to 1/π. Robins exhibit territorial behaviours, building nests on L-System trees while avoiding eagle predators through coordinated flocking. Bats use sonar to hunt insects above a moonlit sea.

Butterfly metamorphosis is the canonical Z₂ case for CRR — caterpillar-to-pupa-to-adult is a textbook bistable rupture — and the simulation traces coherence development from embryo to caterpillar, rupture during pupation, and regeneration as the adult emerges.

Each species operates through distinct CRR parameters, creating diverse behavioural patterns from the same mathematical framework. Swarm intelligence emerges from local interactions between autonomous agents, demonstrating how a small set of CRR rules generates complex ecosystem dynamics.

Mathematical coral reef with fish and predator system

Marine Environments

Mathematical coral systems respond to environmental heat stress through coherence-based bleaching and recovery cycles, with branching probability driven by exp(C/Ω). Fish populations interact with coral through feeding behaviours, while mathematical currents shape the fish school behaviours and movements in real time.

A nutrient field couples to drifting plankton particles, with phytoplankton blooms and fish-predator interactions emerging from the local CRR dynamics of each agent rather than a top-down population equation.

These aquatic ecosystems demonstrate how CRR principles scale from microscopic plankton to complex reef systems, with each organism contributing to collective coherence through biochemical signalling and spatial organisation.

Mycelium network growth with branching patterns

Moss & Mycelium

The mycelium simulation is the canonical CRR demonstration on this page: each hyphal tip accumulates coherence C from local environmental signal, ruptures (branches) when C reaches C* = 1/Ω, and regenerates with growth rate amplified by exp(C/Ω). A 700×700 spatial coherence field tracks the integrated history of mycelial activity across the substrate, and inter-rupture interval CV is reported live.

The advanced moss simulation extends the same C/δ/R machinery to growth and sporulation; its Ω is exposed as a slider rather than anchored to 1/π, so it shows the framework's shape rather than its quantitative prediction.

The tree-ring viewer plays back a CRR analysis of the New Forest UK1505 dendrochronological record: per-year L, C, R, and rupture flags computed offline from the actual ring-width data. Mycelial intelligence emerges through network topology optimisation and resource-sharing behaviours that transcend individual organism boundaries.

Storm clouds with lightning and mathematical sun

Weather Systems

Atmospheric CRR dynamics drive cloud formation, charge accumulation, and lightning discharge patterns. The system tracks coherence-rupture-regeneration phases as electrical potential builds in cloud systems until the derived threshold C_crit = Ω·log(Λ/λ₀) triggers lightning strikes through optimal CRR field pathways.

Mathematical sun positioning drives convection and charge separation, while lightning pathfinding uses coherence-field calculations to determine discharge routes. Thunder emerges from procedural waveform synthesis driven by the same field.

The simulation features both bolt lightning (cloud-to-ground strikes) and sheet lightning (cloud-to-cloud discharges), with interactive controls and real-time storm parameters. Users can observe how CRR coherence fields influence atmospheric electrical behaviour and precipitation patterns. The hurricane example shows three toy models of memory-based hurricanes over Jamaica.
