We study absorbing-state phase transitions in two-dimensional Voronoi-Delaunay (VD) random lattices with quenched coordination disorder. Quenched randomness usually changes the criticality and destroys discontinuous transitions in…

Detachment and fracture are central to many tissue-level processes, but they are challenging to simulate with Voronoi-type models that typically assume a confluent tissue. Here we analyze the finite Voronoi model, a nonconfluent extension…

Perturbed lattices provide simple models for studying many physical systems. In this paper we study the distribution of Voronoi chains, blocks, and clusters with prescribed combinatorial features in the perturbed square lattice,…
Voronoi tessellations have been used to model the geometric arrangement of cells in morphogenetic or cancerous tissues, however so far only with flat hypersurfaces as cell-cell contact borders. In order to reproduce the experimentally…

Periodically sheared colloids at low densities demonstrate a dynamical phase transition from an inactive to active phase as the strain amplitude is increased. The inactive phase consists of no collisions/contacts between particles in the…
We apply the recently devised quasi-stationary simulation method to study the lifetime and order parameter of the contact process in the subcritical phase. This phase is not accessible to other methods because virtually all realizations of…
