A recently developed model of random walks on a $D$-dimensional hyperspherical lattice, where $D$ is {\sl not} restricted to integer values, is used to study polymer growth near a $D$-dimensional attractive hyperspherical boundary. The…
We explore the macroscopic consequences of lattice anisotropy for Diffusion Limited Aggregation (DLA) in three dimensions. Simple cubic and BCC lattice growths are shown to approach universal asymptotic states in a coherent fashion, and the…
Diffusion limited aggregation is studied from the perspective of computational complexity. A parallel algorithm is exhibited that requires a number of steps that scales as the depth of the tree defined by the cluster. The existence of this…
We consider the DLA process on a cylinder G x N. It is shown that this process "grows arms", provided that the base graph G has small enough mixing time. Specifically, if the mixing time of G is at most (log|G|)^(2-\eps), the time it takes…
Laplacian growth is the study of interfaces that move in proportion to harmonic measure. Physically, it arises in fluid flow and electrical problems involving a moving boundary. We survey progress over the last decade on discrete models of…
We measure the multiscaling behavior of large off-lattice diffusion limited aggregates (DLA). In contrast to previous studies we now find a continuous dependence of the multiscaling dimensions $D(x)$ on the relative distance $x=r/R_g$ to…
We study a continuous time random walk on the $d$-dimensional lattice, subject to a drift and an attraction to large clusters of a subcritical Bernoulli site percolation. We find two distinct regimes: a ballistic one, and a subballistic one…
We introduce a new self-interacting random walk on the integers in a dynamic random environment and show that it converges to a pure diffusion in the scaling limit. We also find a lower bound on the diffusion coefficient in some special…
A diffusion-limited aggregation process, in which clusters coalesce by means of 3-particle reaction, A+A+A->A, is investigated. In one dimension we give a heuristic argument that predicts logarithmic corrections to the mean-field asymptotic…
We consider a model of aggregation, both diffusion-limited and ballistic, based on the Cayley tree. Growth is from the leaves of the tree towards the root, leading to non-trivial screening and branch competition effects. The model exhibits…
Recently, the diffusion-limited cluster aggregation (DLCA) model was restudied as a real-world example of showing discontinuous percolation transitions (PTs). Because a larger cluster is less mobile in Brownian motion, it comes into contact…
The creation of fractal clusters by diffusion limited aggregation (DLA) is studied by using iterated stochastic conformal maps following the method proposed recently by Hastings and Levitov. The object of interest is the function…
We study branching random walks in random environment on the $d$-dimensional square lattice, $d \geq 1$. In this model, the environment has finite range dependence, and the population size cannot decrease. We prove limit theorems (laws of…
We introduce the pushy random walk, where a walker can push multiple obstacles, thereby penetrating large distances in environments with finite obstacle density. This process provides a minimal model for experimentally observed interactions…
In this work, we characterize cluster-invariant point processes for critical branching spatial processes on R d for all large enough d when the motion law is $\alpha$-stable or has a finite discrete range. More precisely, when the motion is…
In a recent paper (Bogoyavlenskiy V A 2002 \JPA \textbf{35} 2533), an algorithm aiming to generate isotropic clusters of the on-lattice diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA) model was proposed. The procedure consists of aggregation…
We build the iDLA cluster using drifted random walks, and study the limiting shapes they exhibit, with the help of sandpile models. For constant drift, the normalised cluster converges to a canonical shape S, which can be termed a true heat…
We study the local dynamical fluctuations in glass-forming models of particles embedded in $d$-dimensional space, in the mean-field limit of $d\to\infty$. Our analytical calculation reveals that single-particle observables, such as squared…
We consider Diffusion Limited Aggregation (DLA) in a two-dimensional wedge. We prove that if the angle of the wedge is smaller than $\pi/4$, there is some $a>2$ such that almost surely, for all $R$ large enough, after time $R^a$ all new…
We consider an infinite-dimensional stochastic clustering model on $\mathbb{R}$. In discrete time, each point of a unit-intensity simple point process moves halfway toward either of its left or right neighbors, chosen uniformly at random.…
