We study the two-species symbiotic contact process (2SCP), recently proposed in [de Oliveira, Santos and Dickman, Phys. Rev. E {\bf 86}, 011121 (2012)] . In this model, each site of a lattice may be vacant or host single individuals of…
Percolation theory dictates an intuitive picture depicting correlated regions in complex systems as densely connected clusters. While this picture might be adequate at small scales and apart from criticality, we show that highly correlated…
We consider the contact process near an extended surface defect, where the local control parameter deviates from the bulk one by an amount of $\lambda(l)-\lambda(\infty) = A l^{-s}$, $l$ being the distance from the surface. We concentrate…
