Power laws and distributions with heavy tails are common features of many experimentally studied complex systems, like the distribution of the sizes of earthquakes and solar flares, or the duration of neuronal avalanches in the brain.…
We have investigated both site and bond percolation on two dimensional lattice under the random rule and the product rule respectively. With the random rule, sites or bonds are added randomly into the lattice. From two candidates picked…

Collective cell migration lies at the intersection of developmental biology and non-equilibrium physics, where active processes give rise to emergent patterns that are biologically relevant. Here, we investigate dilatational modes--cycles…
We consider self-propelled particles undergoing run-and-tumble dynamics (as exhibited by E. coli) in one dimension. Building on previous analyses at drift-diffusion level for the one-particle density, we add both interactions and noise,…
We study the critical behavior of the dissipative abelian sandpile model on Z with dissipative sites at arbitrary positions (x_k). This is equivalent to studying whether the expected stopping time of a trapped random walk on Z is finite.…
The finite-size scaling theory for continuous phase transition plays an important role in determining critical point and critical exponents from the size-dependent behaviors of quantities in the thermodynamic limit. For percolation phase…

A spring-block model governed by threshold dynamics and driven by temporally increasing spring constants is investigated. Due to its novel multiplicative driving, criticality occurs even with periodic boundary conditions via a mechanism…

We use a phenomenological field theory, reflecting the symmetries and conservation laws of sandpiles, to compare the driven dissipative sandpile, widely studied in the context of self-organized criticality, with the corresponding…
This paper studies a stylized model of local interaction where agents choose from an ever increasing set of vertically ranked actions, e.g. technologies. The driving forces of the model are infrequent upward shifts (``updates''), followed…
Based on the invasion percolation model, a lattice model for the sweeping interface dynamics is constructed to describe the pattern forming process by a sweeping interface upon drying the water-granule mixture. The model is shown to produce…
In this article, we investigate both site and bond percolation on a weighted planar stochastic lattice (WPSL) which is a multi-multifractal and whose dual is a scale-free network. The characteristic properties of percolation is that it…

Scale-free dynamics in physical and biological systems can arise from a variety of causes. Here, we explore a branching process which leads to such dynamics. We find conditions for the appearance of power laws and study quantitatively what…
