Knowing that ``relevant components'' determine the number and length of attractors, we focus on such relevant components and calculate how the length and number of attractors on these components are modified by delays at one or more nodes. The main findings are that attractors decrease in number when there are more delays, and that periods may become very long when delays are not integer multiples of the basic update step.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2007-07-10T13:46:29.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "critical kauffman networks", "deterministic asynchronous update", "relevant components", "basic update step", "attractors" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "New Journal of Physics", "year": 2007, "month": "Oct", "volume": 9, "number": 10, "pages": 373 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2007NJPh....9..373G" } } }
