The Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) describes the continuum limit of domain walls at phase transitions in two dimensional statistical systems. We consider here the SLEs in the self-dual Z(N) spin models at the critical point. For N=2 and…

The nodal lines of random wave functions are investigated. We demonstrate numerically that they are well approximated by the so-called SLE_6 curves which describe the continuum limit of the percolation cluster boundaries. This result gives…

We present analytical results for the distribution of shortest path lengths (DSPL) in a network growth model which evolves by node duplication (ND). The model captures essential properties of the structure and growth dynamics of social…

We consider multiple chordal Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE) with $\kappa\in (0,4]$. Under common-time parameterization, we show that the transition density of the driving function of multiple chordal SLEs can be given by the transition…

Real landscapes are usually characterized by long-range height-height correlations, which are quantified by the Hurst exponent $H$. We analyze the statistical properties of the isoheight lines for correlated landscapes of $H\in [-1,1]$. We…

Motivated by results of Henry, Pralat and Zhang (PNAS 108.21 (2011): 8605-8610), we propose a general scheme for evolving spatial networks in order to reduce their total edge lengths. We study the properties of the equilbria of two networks…

Spreading according to simple rules (e.g. of fire or diseases), and shortest-path distances are studied on d-dimensional systems with a small density p per site of long-range connections (``Small-World'' lattices). The volume V(t) covered…

The Brownian loop measure is a conformally invariant measure on loops in the plane that arises when studying the Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE). When an SLE curve in a domain evolves from an interior point, it is natural to consider the…

Linear least squares (LLS) is perhaps the most common method of data analysis, dating back to Legendre, Gauss and Laplace. Framed as linear regression, LLS is also a backbone of mathematical statistics. Here we report on an unexpected new…
