Abstract

Physarum polycephalum, grown from fragments on an agar surface, forms a planar transportation network with exclusively low node degrees in a percolation transition. The dynamics of such a process can be captured by a rate equation reflecting basic events, such as growth and fusion of fragments.

Keywords: physarum polycephalum graph theory percolation
