In the present paper, we analyze the signatures of long-range persistence in seismic sequences along Circum-Pacific subduction zones, from Chile to Kermadec, extracted from the National Earthquake Information Center (NEIC) catalog. This…
Fractal behavior and long-range dependence have been observed in an astonishing number of physical systems. Either phenomenon has been modeled by self-similar random functions, thereby implying a linear relationship between fractal…
The fractal scaling properties of the heartbeat time series are studied in a controlled ergometric regime using the Hurst rescaled range R/S analysis. The long-time "memory effect" quantified by the value of the Hurst exponent $H>0.5$ is…
This article deals with the estimation of fractal dimension of spatio-temporal patterns that are generated by numerically solving the Swift Hohenberg (SH) equation. The patterns were converted into a spatial series (analogous to time…
This study aimed to analyze the time series behavior of the Southern Oscillation Index through techniques using Fast Fourier Transform, computing the autocorrelation function, and the calculation of the Hurst coefficient. The methodology of…
We extend our previous model, avalanche-burst invasion percolation (AIP) by introducing long-range correlations between sites described by fractional Brownian statistics. In our previous models with independent, random site strengths, we…
Scaling properties of Yang-Mills fields are used to show that fractal structures are expected to be present in system described by those theories. We show that the fractal structure leads to recurrence formulas that allow the determination…
The time dependence of the parameter of the Gutenberg-Richter (GR) magnitude distribution is computed for foreshock sequences of earthquakes, correlated with the main shock, by using the geometric-growth model of earthquake focus, the…
The spatial distribution of unvisited/persistent sites in $d=1$ $A+A\to\emptyset$ model is studied numerically. Over length scales smaller than a cut-off $\xi(t)\sim t^{z}$, the set of unvisited sites is found to be a fractal. The fractal…
The aspect of self-affine nature of faulting and fracture is widely documented from the data analysis of both field observations and laboratory experiments. In this direction, Huang and Turcotte have stated that the statistics of regional…
We analyze regional earthquake energy statistics from the Southern California and Japan seismic catalogs and find scale-invariant energy distributions characterized by an exponent $\tau \simeq 1.67$. To quantify how closely scale-invariant…
The recently introduced Minimalist Model [Vazquez- Prada et al., 2002] of characteristic earthquakes provides a simple representation of the seismicity originated in a sin- gle fault. Here, we first characterize the properties of this model…
We study long-range correlations and trends in time series extracted from the data of seismic events occurred from 1973 to 2011 in a rectangular region that contains mainly all the continental part of Colombia. The long-range correlations…
The Gutenberg-Richter law is a fundamental empirical law in seismology describing earthquake frequency-magnitude distributions, with one of its key parameters, the so-called b-value, quantifying the relative frequency of small versus large…
We propose that the widely observed and universal Gutenberg-Richter relation is a mathematical consequence of the critical branching nature of earthquake process in a brittle fracture environment. These arguments, though preliminary, are…
We introduce a new model for an earthquake fault system that is composed of non-interacting simple lattice models with different levels of damage denoted by $q$. The undamaged lattice models ($q=0$) have Gutenberg-Richter scaling with a…
High-frequency (HF) seismic radiation of large earthquakes is approximately represented by P wave trains recorded at teleseismic distances. Observed envelopes of such signals look random and intermittent, suggesting non-trivial stochastic…

We propose to use the rescaled range analysis to examine the records of rapidity-dependence of multiplicities in high-energy collision processes. We probe event by event the existence of global statistical dependence in the system of…
