DESCRIPTION:Zoom link: https://maths-cam-ac-uk.zoom.us/j/94018
 037756\n\nNatural ecosystems exhibit astounding ri
 chness. This suggests that we treat them as many-v
 ariable interacting systems\, but is there any evi
 dence to support this perspective? I will discuss 
 possible footprints of high-dimensionality\, inclu
 ding phase-transitions\, and “thermodynamic” varia
 bles which determine the system’s large-scale beha
 vior. The latter are found in a wide range of acce
 pted models in the field. Then\, I’ll present a th
 eory for how interactions organize to allow many s
 pecies to coexist. Data from plant-competition exp
 eriments confirms the theoretical predictions\, pr
 oviding evidence for high-dimensionality in that e
 cosystem.
