I report large-scale Monte Carlo studies of a one-dimensional height-restricted stochastic sandpile using the quasistationary simulation method. Results for systems of up to 50 000 sites yield estimates for critical exponents that differ…
We consider the model of a directed polymer in a random environment defined on the infinite cluster of supercritical Bernoulli bond percolation in dimensions $d \geq 3$. For this model, it was proved in arXiv:2205.06206 that for almost…
In this paper, we prove the asymptotic stability of the incompressible porous media (IPM) equation near a stable stratified density, for initial perturbations in the Sobolev space $H^k$ with any $2<k \in\mathbb{R}$. While it is known that…
We study the percolation properties of the growing clusters model. In this model, a number of seeds placed on random locations on a lattice are allowed to grow with a constant velocity to form clusters. When two or more clusters eventually…
We give a non-trivial upper bound for the critical density when stabilizing i.i.d. distributed sandpiles on the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$. We also determine the asymptotic spectral gap, asymptotic mixing time and prove a cutoff phenomenon for…
We perform large-scale simulations of directed sandpile models with both deterministic and stochastic toppling rules. Our results show the existence of two distinct universality classes. We also provide numerical simulations of directed…
We numerically study the directed version of the fixed energy sandpile. On a closed square lattice, the dynamical evolution of a fixed density of sand grains is studied. The activity of the system shows a continuous phase transition around…
Sedimentation of particulate suspensions in horizontal pipes can lead to formation, growth and consolidation of a solid-like bed which can severely retard pipeline performance. As stagnant flow conditions frequently arise during industrial…
We introduce a new model of algorithmic tile self-assembly called size-dependent assembly. In previous models, supertiles are stable when the total strength of the bonds between any two halves exceeds some constant temperature. In this…
In this paper, we examine the locality condition for non-splitting and determine the level of uniqueness of limit models that can be recovered in some stable, but not superstable, abstract elementary classes. In particular we prove (note…
The exploration of the phase diagram of a minimal model for barchan fields leads to the description of three distinct phases for the system: stationary, percolable and unstable. In the stationary phase the system always reaches an out of…
We study the moduli stabilization from the viewpoint of modular flavor symmetries. We systematically analyze stabilized moduli values in possible configurations of flux compactifications, investigating probabilities of moduli values and…
The high-density plaquette percolation model in d dimensions contains a surface that is homeomorphic to the (d-1)-sphere and encloses the origin. This is proved by a path-counting argument in a dual model. When d=3, this permits an improved…
We analyze the stability of the coflow configuration. The experiments and the global stability analysis show that the emitted jet always destabilizes before the tapering conical meniscus. This implies that the parameter conditions at which…
How does the percolation transition behave in the absence of quenched randomness? To address this question, we study two nonrandom self-dual quasiperiodic models of square-lattice bond percolation. In both models, the critical point has…
We consider bond percolation on the square lattice with perfectly correlated random probabilities. According to scaling considerations, mapping to a random walk problem and the results of Monte Carlo simulations the critical behavior of the…
When a sandpile relaxes under vibration, it is known that its measured angle of repose is bistable in a range of values bounded by a material-dependent maximal angle of stability; thus, at the same angle of repose, a sandpile can be…
We investigate the problem of growing clusters, which is modeled by two dimensional disks and three dimensional droplets. In this model we place a number of seeds on random locations on a lattice with an initial occupation probability, $p$.…
The streaming instability (SI) is a leading mechanism for concentrating solid particles into regions dense enough to form planetesimals. Its efficiency in clumping particles depends primarily on the dimensionless stopping time ($\tau_s$, a…
We consider random perturbations of discrete-time dynamical systems. We give sufficient conditions for the stochastic stability of certain classes of maps, in a strong sense. This improves the main result in J. F. Alves, V. Araujo, Random…
