We investigate the effects of topological constraints (entanglements) on two dimensional polymer loops in the dense phase, and at the collapse transition (Theta point). Previous studies have shown that in the dilute phase the entangled…
We present a detailed study of a two-dimensional minimal lattice model for the description of mud cracking in the limit of extremely thin layers. In this model each bond of the lattice is assigned to a (quenched) breaking threshold.…
For the site percolation model on the triangular lattice and certain generalizations for which Cardy's Formula has been established we acquire a power law estimate for the \emph{rate} of convergence of the crossing probabilities to Cardy's…
The small-world property is known to have a profound effect on the navigation efficiency of complex networks [J. M. Kleinberg, Nature 406, 845 (2000)]. Accordingly, the proper addition of shortcuts to a regular substrate can lead to the…
This work considers the behavior of the height distributions of the equipotential lines in a region confined by two interfaces: a cathode with an irregular interface and a distant flat anode. Both boundaries, which are maintained at…
While classical percolation is well understood, percolation effects in randomly packed or jammed structures are much less explored. Here we investigate both experimentally and theoretically the electrical percolation in a binary composite…
We report site percolation thresholds for square lattice with neighbor interactions at various increasing ranges. Using Monte Carlo techniques we found that nearest neighbors (N$^2$), next nearest neighbors (N$^3$), next next nearest…
We present a numerical study for the threshold percolation probability, $p_c$, in the bond percolation model with multiple ranges, in the square lattice. A recent Theorem demonstrated by de Lima {\it et al.} [B. N. B. de Lima, R. P.…
We study the quality of weighted shortest paths when a continuous 2-dimensional space is discretized by a weighted triangular tessellation. In order to evaluate how well the tessellation approximates the 2-dimensional space, we study three…
Particles floating on the surface of a turbulent incompressible fluid accumulate along string-like structures, while leaving large regions of the flow domain empty. This is reflected experimentally by a very peaked probability distribution…
We derive the asymptotic first passage time (FPT) distribution for space-dependent variable-order time-fractional diffusion, where the fractional exponent $\alpha(x)$ varies with position. For any sufficiently smooth $\alpha(x)$ on a finite…
We investigate the quantum percolation problem in a diluted chain with long-range hopping amplitudes. Each bond is activated with probability $p(r) = p_1/r^{\alpha}$, where $r$ is the distance between two sites and $\alpha$ characterizes…
We study the diffusion phenomena on the negatively curved surface made up of congruent heptagons. Unlike the usual two-dimensional plane, this structure makes the boundary increase exponentially with the distance from the center, and hence…
In the polluted modified bootstrap percolation model, sites in the square lattice are independently initially occupied with probability $p$ or closed with probability $q$. A site becomes occupied at a subsequent step if it is not closed and…
In this paper we consider independent site percolation in a triangulation of $\mathbb{R}^2$ given by adding $\sqrt{2}$-long diagonals to the usual graph $\mathbb{Z}^2$. We conjecture that $p_c=\frac{1}{2}$ for any such graph, and prove it…
We consider the Constrained-degree percolation model on the hypercubic lattice, $\mathbb L^d=(\mathbb Z^d,\mathbb E^d)$ for $d\geq 3$. It is a continuous time percolation model defined by a sequence, $(U_e)_{e\in\mathbb E^d}$, of i.i.d.…
We consider the first passage percolation model on $\mathbf{Z}^2$. In this model, we assign independently to each edge $e$ a passage time $t(e)$ with a common distribution $F$. Let $T(u,v)$ be the passage time from $u$ to $v$. In this…
When a network is inferred from data, two types of errors can occur: false positive and false negative conclusions about the presence of links. We focus on the influence of local network characteristics on the probability $\alpha$ - of type…
On the lattice $\widetilde{\mathbb Z}^2_+:={(x,y)\in \mathbb Z \times \mathbb Z_+\colon x+y \text{is even}}$ we consider the following oriented (northwest-northeast) site percolation: the lines $H_i:={(x,y)\in \widetilde {\mathbb Z}^2_+…
Hyperbolic lattices interpolate between finite-dimensional lattices and Bethe lattices and are interesting in their own right with ordinary percolation exhibiting not one, but two, phase transitions. We study four constraint percolation…
