An exploration of tipping in complex systems

Phys.org  November 23, 2021
In this review article an international team of researcher (India, Germany, Russia) explored the nature of tipping in complex systems presented in 21 articles and presented them in three broad areas: in the first part, they focus on the mechanisms that can induce tipping between different states; the second group of papers explores the measures that characterize tipping phenomena, and suggests strategies that could be used to control them, and the final part presents several specific case studies of tipping in complex systems, such as traffic flows, precipitation patterns, and dust cloud instabilities. They conclude with potential applications of tipping in different contexts examining how the effect could be harnessed for more efficient logic operations, while highlighting how measurements of fluctuations within stable systems could provide essential early warning systems…read more.
