Despite similarities between models exhibiting absorbing phase transitions (APTs) and those showing Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) growth, the relationship between these universal fluctuations has remained elusive. We numerically study…
We consider the random deposition of objects of variable width and height over a line. The successive additions of these structures create a random interface. We focus on the regime of heavy tailed distributions of the structure width. When…
We study the random growth of surfaces from within the perspective of a single column, namely, the fluctuation of the column height around the mean value, y(t)= h(t)-< h(t)>, which is depicted as being subordinated to a standard…
We study a moving boundary model of non-conserved interface growth that implements the interplay between diffusive matter transport and aggregation kinetics at the interface. Conspicuous examples are found in thin film production by…
We analyse by numerical simulations and scaling arguments the avalanche statistics of 1-dimensional elastic interfaces in random media driven at a single point. Both global and local avalanche sizes are power-law distributed, with universal…
We study the persistence properties in a simple model of two coupled interfaces characterized by heights h_1 and h_2 respectively, each growing over a d-dimensional substrate. The first interface evolves independently of the second and can…
We investigate a two-dimensional classical $-vector model with a generic nearest-neighbor interaction $W(\bsigma_i\cdot \bsigma_j)$ in the large-N limit, focusing on the finite-temperature transition point at which energy-energy…
We study the emergence of a giant component in a spatial network where the distribution of the metric distances between the nodes is scale-invariant, and the interaction between the nodes has a long-range power-law behavior. The nodes are…
We generalize the diffusion-limited aggregation by issuing many randomly-walking particles, which stick to a cluster at the discrete time unit providing its growth. Using simple combinatorial arguments we determine probabilities of…
We study the competitive RSOS-BD model focusing on the validity of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) ansatz h(t) = v t + (\Gamma t)^{\beta} \chi and the universality of the height distributions (HDs) near the point where the model has…
We study the interface representation of the contact process (CP) at its directed-percolation critical point, where the scaling properties of the interface can be related to those of the original particle model. Interestingly, such a…
Growth patterns of complex systems predict how they change in sizes, numbers, masses, etc. Understanding growth is important, especially for many biological, ecological, urban, and socioeconomic systems. One noteworthy growth behavior is…
The evolution of two species with different fitness is investigated on degree-heterogeneous graphs. The population evolves either by one individual dying and being replaced by the offspring of a random neighbor (voter model (VM) dynamics)…
We propose a model of network growth in which the network is co-evolving together with the dynamics of a quantum mechanical system, namely a quantum walk taking place over the network. The model naturally generalizes the Barab\'{a}si-Albert…
We use probabilistic methods to study properties of mean-field models, arising as large-scale limits of certain particle systems with mean-field interaction. The underlying particle system is such that $n$ particles move forward on the real…
We consider a one-dimensional network in which the nodes at Euclidean distance $l$ can have long range connections with a probabilty $P(l) \sim l^{-\delta}$ in addition to nearest neighbour connections. This system has been shown to exhibit…
We show that the protein-protein interaction networks can be surprisingly well described by a very simple evolution model of duplication and divergence. The model exhibits a remarkably rich behavior depending on a single parameter, the…
We introduce a multifractal optimal detrended fluctuation analysis to study the scaling properties of the one-dimensional Wolf-Villain (WV) model for surface growth. This model produces mounded surface morphologies for long time scales (up…

We study the dynamics of an exactly solvable lattice model for inhomogeneous interface growth. The interface grows deterministically with constant velocity except along a defect line where the growth process is random. We obtain exact…
