From a context of evolutionary dynamics, social games can be studied as complex systems that may converge to a Nash equilibrium. Nonetheless, they can behave in an unpredictable manner when looking at the spatial patterns formed by the agents' strategies. This is known in the literature as spatial chaos. In this paper we analyze the problem for a deterministic prisoner's dilemma and a public goods game and calculate the Hamming distance that separates two solutions that start at very similar initial conditions for both cases. The rapid growth of this distance indicates the high sensitivity to initial conditions, which is a well-known indicator of chaotic dynamics.

In a phylogeny, trustworthy reliability branch support estimates are as important as the tree itself. We show that reliability support values based on bootstrapping can be improved by combining sequence and structural information from proteins. Our approach relies on the systematic comparison of homologous intra-molecular structural distances.

dna2bit is an ultra-fast software specifically engineered for microbial genome analysis, particularly adept at calculating genome distances within metagenome and single amplified genome datasets. Distinguished from existing software such as Mash and Dashing, dna2bit employs feature hashing technique and Hamming distance to achieve enhanced speed and memory utilization, without sacrifice in the accuracy of average nucleotide identity calculations. dna2bit has promising applications in various domains such as average nucleotide identity approximation, metagenomic sequence clustering, and homology querying.

Physical unclonable functions (PUFs) are emerging as a cutting-edge technology for enhancing information security by providing robust security authentication and non-reproducible cryptographic keys. Incorporating renewable and biocompatible materials into PUFs ensures safety for handling, compatibility with biological systems, and reduced environmental impact. However, existing PUF platforms struggle to balance high encoding capacity, diversified encryption signatures, and versatile functionalities with sustainability and biocompatibility.

Multi-attribute decision-making problems can be solved using a Fermatean vague set. Fermatean vague sets are extension of vague sets. We initiated generalized Fermatean vague weighted averaging, generalized Fermatean vague weighted geometric, power generalized Fermatean vague weighted averaging and power generalized Fermatean vague weighted geometric.
