We compute the correlations of two height variables in the two-dimensional Abelian sandpile model. We extend the known result for two minimal heights to the case when one of the heights is bigger than one. We find that the most dominant…
The critical behaviour of $d$-dimensional semi-infinite systems with $n$-component order parameter $\bm{\phi}$ is studied at an $m$-axial bulk Lifshitz point whose wave-vector instability is isotropic in an $m$-dimensional subspace of…
We revisit the calculation of height correlations in the two-dimensional Abelian sandpile model by taking advantage of a technique developed recently by Kenyon and Wilson. The formalism requires to equip the usual graph Laplacian,…
We present analytical results for the finite-size scaling in d--dimensional O(N) systems with strong anisotropy where the critical exponents (e.g. \nu_{||} and \nu_{\perp}) depend on the direction. Prominent examples are systems with…
We study a restricted-height version of the one-dimensional Oslo sandpile with conserved density, using periodic boundary conditions. Each site has a limiting height which can be either two or three. When a site reaches its limiting height…
We present the detailed calculations of the asymptotics of two-site correlation functions for height variables in the two-dimensional Abelian sandpile model. By using combinatorial methods for the enumeration of spanning trees, we extend…
Fully compressible turbulent convection beyond the Oberbeck-Boussinesq limit and anelastic regime is studied in three-dimensional numerical simulations. Superadiabaticity $\epsilon$ and dissipation number $D$, which measures the strength of…
We introduce an external control to reduce the size of avalanches in some sandpile models exhibiting self organized criticality. This rather intuitive approach seems to be missing in the vast literature on such systems. The control action,…
We explore in the mean-field approximation the robustness with respect to dissipation of self-organized criticality in sandpile models. To this end, we generalize a recently introduced self-organized branching process, and show that the…
We consider the thermal behavior of a large number of matrix degrees of freedom in the planar limit. We work in $0+1$ dimensions, with $D$ matrices, and use $1/D$ as an expansion parameter. This can be thought of as a non-commutative…
The BTW sandpile model is considered on three dimensional percolation lattice which is tunned with the occupation parameter $p$. Along with the three-dimensional avalanches, we study the energy propagation in two-dimensional cross-sections.…
In a recent Letter (EPL 105, 40006; arXiv:1309.7107), Liu and Hu presented a model of toppling-coupled sandpiles, where they found that the avalanche exponents for two toppling-coupled sandpiles are the same as those for a single uncoupled…
Adding sand grains at a single site in Abelian sandpile models produces beautiful but complex patterns. We study the effect of sink sites on such patterns. Sinks change the scaling of the diameter of the pattern with the number $N$ of sand…
We introduce a one-dimensional sandpile model with $N$ different particle types and an infinitesimal driving rate. The parameters for the model are the N^2 critical slopes for one type of particle on top of another. The model is trivial…
An Abelian sandpile model is considered on the Husimi lattice of square plaquettes. Exact expressions for the distribution of height probabilities in the Self-Organized Critical state are derived. The two-point correlation function for the…
Conformally symplectic systems include mechanical systems with a friction proportional to the velocity. Geometrically, these systems transform a symplectic form into a multiple of itself making the systems dissipative or expanding. In the…
Coarsening of sand ripples is studied in a one-dimensional stochastic model, where neighboring ripples exchange mass with algebraic rates, $\Gamma(m) \sim m^\gamma$, and ripples of zero mass are removed from the system. For $\gamma < 0$…
We investigate the avalanche dynamics of the abelian sandpile model on arbitrarily large balls of the expanded cactus graph (the Cayley graph of the free product $\mathbb{Z}_3 * \mathbb{Z}_2$). We follow the approach of Dhar and Majumdar…

We study the sandpile model in infinite volume on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. In particular, we are interested in the question whether or not initial configurations, chosen according to a stationary measure $\mu$, are $\mu$-almost surely stabilizable.…
