Anomalous dynamics in which local perturbations spread faster than diffusion are ubiquitously observed in the long-time behavior of a wide variety of systems. Here, the manner by which such systems evolve towards their asymptotic…
We consider a conservation law model of traffic flow, where the velocity of each car depends on a weighted average of the traffic density $\rho$ ahead. The averaging kernel is of exponential type: $w_\varepsilon(s)=\varepsilon ^{-1}…
During the last decades, the study of cities has been transformed by new approaches combining engineering and complexity sciences. Network theory is playing a central role, facilitating the quantitative analysis of crucial urban dynamics,…
We consider a self-oscillator whose excitation parameter is varied. Frequency of the variation is much smaller then the natural frequency of the oscillator so that oscillations in the system are periodically excited and decay. Also a time…

We study the asymptotics of large, simple, labeled graphs constrained by the densities of edges and of $k$-star subgraphs, $k\ge 2$ fixed. We prove that under such constraints graphs are "multipodal": asymptotically in the number of…
Using the formalism of the biased random walk in random uncorrelated networks with arbitrary degree distributions, we develop theoretical approach to the critical packet generation rate in traffic based on routing strategy with local…
Urban flooding disrupts traffic networks, affecting the mobility and disrupting access of residents. Since flooding events are predicted to increase due to climate change, and given the criticality of traffic networks, understanding the…
In the optimal velocity model with a time lag, we show that there appear multiple exact solutions in some ranges of car density, describing a uniform flow, a stable and an unstable congested flows. This establishes the presence of…
While many classical traffic models treat the spatial extension of streets continuously or by discretization into cells of a certain length, we will subdivide roads into comparatively long homogeneous road sections of constant capacity with…
We propose a minimal model for the emergence of a directed flow in autonomous Hamiltonian systems. It is shown that internal breaking of the spatio-temporal symmetries, via localised initial conditions, that are unbiased with respect to the…
Experimental studies on vehicular traffic provide data on quantities like density, flux, and mean speed of the vehicles. However, the diagrams relating these variables (the fundamental and speed diagrams) show some peculiarities not yet…
We study statistical properties of a family of maps acting in the space of integer valued sequences, which model dynamics of simple deterministic traffic flows. We obtain asymptotic (as time goes to infinity) properties of trajectories of…
We have studied a chaotic transport in a two-dimensional periodic vortical flow under a time-dependent perturbation with period T where the global diffusion occurs along the stochastic web. By using the Melnikov method we construct the…
A unifying graph theoretic framework for the modelling of metro transportation networks is proposed. This is achieved by first introducing a basic graph framework for the modelling of the London underground system from a diffusion law point…
In the Optimal Velocity Model proposed as a new version of Car Following Model, it has been found that a congested flow is generated spontaneously from a homogeneous flow for a certain range of the traffic density. A well-established…
In this paper, we study a class of flows of closed, star-shaped hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^{n+1}$ with speed $(\sinh r)^{{\alpha}/{\beta}} \sigma_{k}^{{1}/{\beta}}$, where $\sigma_{k}$ is the $k$-th elementary symmetric…
A navigation on a set of points $S$ is a rule for choosing which point to move to from the present point in order to progress toward a specified target. We study some navigations in the plane where $S$ is a non uniform Poisson point process…
