The Kauffman model on Small-World Topology

Abstract

We apply Kauffman's automata on small-world networks to study the crossover between the short-range and the infinite-range case. We perform accurate calculations on square lattices to obtain both critical exponents and fractal dimensions. Particularly, we find an increase of the damage propagation and a decrease in the fractal dimensions when adding long-range connections.
