Next, the actor theorizes over how Buffalo, N.Y., got a football team, the Buffalo Bills. The ad then cuts to a scene of Evans, host of Hot Ones, chowing down on wings at a restaurant with a group ...
Swarmalators [1] are generalizations of phase oscillators [2] that swarm around in space as they synchronize in time. They were introduced to model the diverse real-world systems which both sync and swarm, such as vinegar eels, [3] magnetic domain walls, [4] and Japanese tree frogs. [5]
