The octahedron model introduced recently has been implemented onto graphics cards, which permits extremely large scale simulations via binary lattice gases and bit coded algorithms. We confirm scaling behaviour belonging to the 2d…
We have performed a detailed Monte Carlo study of a diffusionless $(1+1)$-dimensional solid-on-solid model of particle deposition and evaporation that not only tunes the roughness of an equilibrium surface but also demonstrates the need for…
We study the local and global roughness scaling in growth models with grains at the film surfaces. The local roughness, measured as a function of window size r, shows a crossover at a characteristic length r_c, from a rapid increase with…
Real growing networks like the WWW or personal connection based networks are characterized by a high degree of clustering, in addition to the small-world property and the absence of a characteristic scale. Appropriate modifications of the…
We consider the fragmentation process with mass loss and discuss self-similar properties of the arising structure both in time and space, focusing on dimensional analysis. This exhibits a spectrum of mass exponents $\theta$, whose exact…
We study the probability, $P_S(t)$, of a cluster to remain intact in one-dimensional cluster-cluster aggregation when the cluster diffusion coefficient scales with size as $D(s) \sim s^\gamma$. $P_S(t)$ exhibits a stretched exponential…
Unlike the well-studied models of growing networks, where the dominant dynamics consist of insertions of new nodes and connections, and rewiring of existing links, we study {\em ad hoc} networks, where one also has to contend with rapid and…
Large scale simulations of two-dimensional bidisperse granular fluids allow us to determine spatial correlations of slow particles via the four-point structure factor $S_4(q,t)$. Both cases, elastic ($\varepsilon=1$) as well as inelastic…
X-Ray microtomography was used to follow the coarsening of the structure of a ternary silicate glass experiencing phase separation in the liquid state. The volumes, surfaces, mean and Gaussian curvatures of the domains of minority phase…
The growth of density perturbations in an expanding universe in the non-linear regime is investigated. The underlying equations of motion are cast in a suggestive form, and motivate a conjecture that the scaled pair velocity, $h(a,x)\equiv…
We discuss the concept of discrete scale invariance and how it leads to complex critical exponents (or dimensions), i.e. to the log-periodic corrections to scaling. After their initial suggestion as formal solutions of renormalization group…
The effects of dissipation on the scaling properties of nonlinear discontinuous maps are investigated by analyzing the behavior of the average squared action $\left< I^2 \right>$ as a function of the $n$-th iteration of the map as well as…
We investigate the behavior of discrete interface growth models belonging to the Edwards--Wilkinson (EW) and Kardar--Parisi--Zhang (KPZ) universality classes, when defined on a complete graph, a topology commonly used to probe the…
In a recent work [Phys. Rev. E 109, L042102 (2024)], interesting dimensional crossovers [from two- to one-dimensional (2D to 1D) scaling] were found in the growth of Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) interfaces on rectangular substrates, with…
The investigation of the dynamical universality classes of quantum systems is an important, and rather less explored, aspect of non-equilibrium physics. In this work, considering the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of spinless fermions in a…
Universality of interfacial roughness in growing epithelial tissue has remained a controversial issue. Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) and Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) universality classes have been reported among other behaviors including total…
We have simulated an automaton version of the quenched Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (qKPZ) equation in one and two dimensions in order to study the scaling properties of the interface at the depinning transition. Specifically, the $\alpha$, $\beta$,…
Computer simulations and scaling theory are used to investigate the damping of oscillations during epitaxial growth on high-symmetry surfaces. The crossover from smooth to rough growth takes place after the deposition of (D/F)^\delta…
In this work, the well known power-law relation between strength and sample size, $d^{-n}$, is derived from the knowledge that a dislocation network exhibits scale-free behaviour and the extreme value statistical properties of an arbitrary…
In complex systems, responses to small perturbations are too diverse to predict how much they would be definitely, and then such diverse responses can be predicted in a probabilistic way. Here we study such a problem in scale-free networks,…
