Every Author as First Author Erik D. Demaine, Martin L. Demaine We propose a new standard for writing author names on papers and in bibliographies, which places every author as a first author -- superimposed. This approach enables authors to write papers as true equals, without any advantage given to whoever's name happens to come first alphabetically (for example). We develop the technology for implementing this standard in LaTeX, BibTeX, and HTML; show several examples; and discuss further advantages. https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.01393

Biological Physics Comes of Age Once an awkward confrontation between disciplines, biological physics is having its moment — and showing that life is not just a mess. By William Bialek https://aps.org/publications/apsnews/202304/biological.cfm

Applications for summer course 'Analytical Connectionism' (28 Aug-8 Sep) are now open! https://www.ucl.ac.uk/gatsby/analytical-connectionism-2023 The course will introduce analytical methods for neural-network analysis & connectionist theories of higher-level cognition & psychology.

Marvel Universe looks almost like a real social network We investigate the structure of the Marvel Universe collaboration network, where two Marvel characters are considered linked if they jointly appear in the same Marvel comic book. We show that this network is clearly not a random network, and that it has most, but not all, characteristics of "real-life" collaboration networks, such as movie actors or scientific collaboration networks. The study of this artificial universe that tries to look like a real one, helps to understand that there are underlying principles that make real-life networks have definite characteristics. https://ar5iv.labs.arxiv.org/html/cond-mat/0202174
