Two-component feedback loops and deformed mechanics

TL;DR

This paper explores how two-component feedback loops in biological systems can be modeled as deformed Hamiltonian systems, applying theoretical physics concepts to understand biological dynamics.

Contribution

It introduces a novel perspective by representing biological feedback loops as deformed Hamiltonian systems, bridging physics and biology.

Findings

Feedback loops can be modeled as deformed Hamiltonian systems

Implications of physics-inspired models for biological processes are discussed

Potential for new analytical tools in biology from physics concepts

Abstract

It is shown that a general two-component feedback loop can be viewed as a deformed Hamiltonian system. Some of the implications of using ideas from theoretical physics to study biological processes are discussed.
