Periodic solution to a multispecies predator-prey competition dynamic system with Beddington-DeAngelis functional response and time delay

summary:In this paper, we are concerned with a delayed multispecies competition predator-prey dynamic system with Beddington-DeAngelis functional response. Some sufficient conditions which guarantee the existence of a positive periodic solution for the system are obtained by applying the Mawhin coincidence theory. The interesting thing is that the result is related to the delays, which is different from the corresponding ones known from literature (the results are delay-independent)

Learning Joint 2D & 3D Diffusion Models for Complete Molecule Generation

Designing new molecules is essential for drug discovery and material science. Recently, deep generative models that aim to model molecule distribution have made promising progress in narrowing down the chemical research space and generating high-fidelity molecules. However, current generative models only focus on modeling either 2D bonding graphs or 3D geometries, which are two complementary descriptors for molecules. The lack of ability to jointly model both limits the improvement of generation quality and further downstream applications. In this paper, we propose a new joint 2D and 3D diffusion model (JODO) that generates complete molecules with atom types, formal charges, bond information, and 3D coordinates. To capture the correlation between molecular graphs and geometries in the diffusion process, we develop a Diffusion Graph Transformer to parameterize the data prediction model that recovers the original data from noisy data. The Diffusion Graph Transformer interacts node and edge representations based on our relational attention mechanism, while simultaneously propagating and updating scalar features and geometric vectors. Our model can also be extended for inverse molecular design targeting single or multiple quantum properties. In our comprehensive evaluation pipeline for unconditional joint generation, the results of the experiment show that JODO remarkably outperforms the baselines on the QM9 and GEOM-Drugs datasets. Furthermore, our model excels in few-step fast sampling, as well as in inverse molecule design and molecular graph generation. Our code is provided in https://github.com/GRAPH-0/JODO
