We systematically compute the power spectra of the one-dimensional elementary cellular automata introduced by Wolfram. On the one hand our analysis reveals that one automaton displays $1/f$ spectra though considered as trivial, and on the…
In systems with weak ergodicity breaking, the equivalence of time averages and ensemble averages is known to be broken. We study here the computation of the power spectrum from realizations of a specific process exhibiting 1/f^beta noise,…

Discovering the mechanism underlying the ubiquity of $"1/f^{\alpha}"$ noise has been a long--standing problem. The wide range of systems in which the fluctuations show the implied long--time correlations suggests the existence of some…
There are several mathematical models yielding 1/f noise. For example, 1/f spectrum can be obtained from stochastic sequence of pulses having power-law distribution of pulse durations or from nonlinear stochastic differential equations. We…

Seismic electric signals have been found to obey the ubiquitous $1/f^a$ behavior [{\em Phys. Rev. E} {\bf 66}, 011902(2002)]. The newly introduced concept of natural time enables the study of the dynamic evolution of a complex system and…
We demonstrate that the measurement of $1/f^{\alpha}$ noise at the single molecule or nano-object limit is remarkably distinct from the macroscopic measurement over a large sample. The single particle measurements yield a conditional…
Power spectral density scaling with frequency $f$ as $1/f^\beta$ and $\beta \approx 1$ is widely found in natural and socio-economic systems. Consequently, it has been suggested that such self-similar spectra reflect the universal dynamics…
Recent Fourier analyses of fossil extinction data have indicated that the power spectrum of extinction during the Phanerozoic may take the form of 1/f noise, a result which, it has been suggested, could be indicative of the presence of…
One of the ways that analysis on fractals is more complicated than analysis on manifolds is that the asymptotic behavior of the spectral counting function $N(t)$ has a power law modulated by a nonconstant multiplicatively periodic function.…
Random matrix theory allows for the deduction of stability criteria for complex systems using only a summary knowledge of the statistics of the interactions between components. As such, results like the well-known elliptical law are…

We study a system of one-dimensional (iso)spin-1/2 bosons in the regime of strong repulsive interactions. We argue that the low-energy spectrum of the system consists of acoustic density waves and the spin excitations described by an…
We present a simple stochastic mechanism which generates pulse trains exhibiting a power law distribution of the pulse intervals and a $1/f^\alpha$ power spectrum over several decades at low frequencies with $\alpha$ close to one. The…
The $XYZ$ antiferromagnetic model in linear spin-wave frame is shown explicitly to have an $su(1,2)$ algebraic structure: the Hamiltonian can be written as a linear function of the $su(1,2)$ algebra generators. Based on it, the energy…
It is well-known that the spacetime diagrams of some cellular automata have a fractal structure: for instance Pascal's triangle modulo 2 generates a Sierpinski triangle. Explaining the fractal structure of the spacetime diagrams of cellular…
$1/f^\alpha$ noises are ubiquitous and affect many measurements. These noises are both a nuisance and a peculiarity of several physical systems; in dielectrics, glasses and networked liquids it is very common to study this noise to gather…
In solar physics, especially in exploratory stages of research, it is often necessary to compare the power spectra of two or more time series. One may, for instance, wish to estimate what the power spectrum of the combined data sets might…
We analyze the power spectral density of a signal composed of nonoverlapping rectangular pulses. First, we derive a general formula for the power spectral density of a signal constructed from the sequence of nonoverlapping pulses. Then we…
