Dynamical systems in nature such as fluid flows, heart beat patterns, rainfall variability, stock market price fluctuations, etc. exhibit selfsimilar fractal fluctuations on all scales in space and time. Power spectral analyses of fractal…
Data series generated by complex systems exhibit fluctuations on many time scales and/or broad distributions of the values. In both equilibrium and non-equilibrium situations, the natural fluctuations are often found to follow a scaling…
We consider the $2$-spin spherical Sherrington--Kirkpatrick model whose disorder is given by a deformed Wigner matrix of the form $W+\lambda V$, where $W$ is a Wigner matrix and $V$ is a random diagonal matrix with i.i.d. entries. Assuming…
We study topological, metric and fractal properties of set of numbers $[0;1]$ with given asymptotic mean of digits in their ternary representation. We investigate connection of these numbers and numbers with a given frequency of digits.
In order to understand characteristics common to distributions which have both fractal and non-fractal scale regions in a unified framework, we introduce a concept of typical scale. We employ a model of 2d gravity modified by the $R^2$ term…

The thermal properties of the surfaces of asteroids determine the magnitude of the drift rate cause by the Yarkovsky force. In the general case of Main Belt asteroids, the Yarkovsky force is indirectly proportional to the thermal inertia,…
The discovery of Weyl and Dirac semimetals has produced a number of dramatic physical effects, including the chiral anomaly and topological Fermi arc surface states. We point out that a very different but no less dramatic physical effect is…

Spatial distributions of heavy particles suspended in an incompressible isotropic and homogeneous turbulent flow are investigated by means of high resolution direct numerical simulations. In the dissipative range, it is shown that particles…
The Stretched Sierpinski Gasket is a non-self-similar set but it still exhibits very high symmetry. In an earlier work we calculated the leading term for the eigenvalue counting function for operators coming from resistance forms that were…
Michael Barnsley introduced a family of fractals sets which are repellers of piecewise affine systems. The study of these fractals was motivated by certain problems that arose in fractal image compression but the results we obtained can be…
