A one dimensional network on which there are long range bonds at lattice distances $l>1$ with the probability $P(l) \propto l^{-\delta}$ has been taken under consideration. We investigate the critical behavior of the Ising model on such a…
This thesis considers three models which describe a multihop ad-hoc telecommunication system. These systems consist of users sending messages, which can jump to other users to reach the target user. The first two models have already been…
We establish several new fractal and number theoretical phenomena connected with expansions which are generated by infinite linear iterated function systems. First of all we show that the systems $\Phi$ of cylinders of generalized L\"uroth…
We consider a system of clusters made of elementary building blocks, monomers, and evolving via collisions between diffusing monomers and immobile composite clusters. In our model, the cluster-monomer collision can lead to the attachment of…
We introduce a continuum percolation model defined on the points of a d-dimensional homogeneous Poisson process. Each Poisson point is connected to all points within its connection range, which depends on the distances to the other Poisson…
We study the phase transition of random radii Poisson Boolean percolation: Around each point of a planar Poisson point process, we draw a disc of random radius, independently for each point. The behavior of this process is well understood…

We study a junction between two time-reversal-invariant topological superconductors and show this system goes through a series of multiple transitions between a $0$-junction phase, where the free energy has its minimum for a superconducting…

The study of the phase transition in planar FK-percolation on the square lattice has seen significant recent breakthroughs. The model undergoes a change in the nature of its phase transition at $q = 4$, transitioning from a continuous to a…
For each irrational $\alpha\in[0,1)$ we construct a continuous function $f\: [0,1)\to \R$ such that the corresponding cylindrical transformation $[0,1)\times\R \ni (x,t) \mapsto (x+\alpha, t+ f(x)) \in [0,1)\times\R$ is transitive and the…
Universality and scaling are hallmarks of second-order phase transitions but are generally unexpected in first-order quantum phase transitions (FOQPTs). We present a microscopic theory showing that quantum criticality can emerge around the…
We propose and solve a minimal model of dynamic passage through a second-order phase transition in the presence of symmetry breaking interactions and no dissipation. Our model generalizes the Hamiltonian dynamics of the Painleve'-2 equation…
The transformation of the free-energy landscape from smooth to hierarchical is one of the richest features of mean-field disordered systems. A well-studied example is the de Almeida-Thouless transition for spin glasses in a magnetic field,…

Effects of non-magnetic disorder on the critical temperature T_c and on diamagnetism of quasi-one-dimensional superconductors are reported. The energy of Josephson-coupling between wires is considered to be random, which is typical for…
