We establish both experimentally and theoretically the relation between off the edge and internal avalanches in a sandpile model, a central issue in the interpretation of most experiments in these systems. In BTW simulations and also in the…
I consider the existence and structure of conservation laws for the general class of evolutionary scalar second-order differential equations with parabolic symbol. First I calculate the linearized characteristic cohomology for such…
We study quadratic forms on free modules with unique base, the situation that arises in tropical algebra, and prove the analog of Witt's Cancellation Theorem. Also, the tensor product of an indecomposable bilinear module $(U, \gamma)$ with…
We consider the directed Abelian sandpile model in the presence of sink sites whose density f_t at depth t below the top surface varies as c~1/t^chi. For chi>1 the disorder is irrelevant. For chi<1, it is relevant and the model is no longer…
Individual members of an ensemble of identical systems coupled to a common probe can become entangled with one another, even when they do not interact directly. We investigate how this type of multipartite entanglement is generated in the…
Two-dimensional topological field theories possessing a non-abelian current symmetry are constructed. The topological conformal algebra of these models is analysed. It differs from the one obtained by twisting the $N=2$ superconformal…
It is well known that there are two regimes in a standard one-dimensional Boolean percolation model: either the entire space is covered a.s., or the covered volume fraction is strictly less than one. The aim of this work is to demonstrate…
In an Abelian gauge symmetry, spontaneously broken at a first order phase transition, we investigate the evolution of two and three bubbles of the broken symmetry phase. The full field equations are evolved and we concentrate in particular…
We study the relation between single-mode nonclassicality and two-mode entanglement in a beam-splitter. We show that not all of the nonclassicality (entanglement potential) is transformed into two-mode entanglement for an incident…
We examine exhaustively the behavior of avalanches in critical height sandpile models based in two- and three-dimensional lattices of various topologies. We get that for two-dimensional lattices the spatial and temporal distributions…
Multivalency is a common biological mechanism of formation of strong reversible and selective bonds by grouping weak bonds. Polymers often act as a scaffold to which multiple binding groups are attached. Here I present an analytical theory…
We give an easily checkable algebraic condition which implies that two elements of a finitely generated free group are members of distinct doubly-twisted conjugacy classes with respect to a pair of homomorphisms. We further show that this…
First, we construct a class of functions with good local avalanche characteristics, but bad global avalanche characteristics. We also derive some bounds for the nonlinearity of such functions. It improves upon the results of Son et al., and…
In this article, the notion of bi-monotonic independence is introduced as an extension of monotonic independence to the two-faced framework for a family of pairs of algebras in a non-commutative space. The associated cumulants are defined…
In two space-time dimensions a class of classical multicomponent scalar field theories with discrete, in general non-Abelian global symmetry is considered. The corresponding soliton solutions are given for the cases of 2, 3, and 4…
We have studied one-dimensional cellular automata with updating rules depending stochastically on the difference of the heights of neighbouring cells. The probability for toppling depends on a parameter lambda which goes to one with…
It is shown that perturbation theory in $2D$ nonlinear $\sigma$-models as well gauge theories in dimension $D\geq 2$ produces answers that depend on boundary conditions even after the infinite volume limit has been taken. This unphysical…
We introduce a one-dimensional sandpile model with $N$ different particle types and an infinitesimal driving rate. The parameters for the model are the N^2 critical slopes for one type of particle on top of another. The model is trivial…
We can define the adjacency algebra of an association scheme over arbitrary field. It is not always semisimple over a field of positive characteristic. The structures of adjacency algebras over a field of positive characteristic have not…
The Abelian Sandpile Model, seen as a deterministic lattice automaton, on two-dimensional periodic graphs generates complex regular patterns displaying (fractal) self-similarity. In particular, on a variety of lattices and initial…
