We show that the nonequilibrium dynamics of systems with many interacting elements located on a small-world network can be much slower than on regular networks. As an example, we study the phase ordering dynamics of the Ising model on a…

Neural systems process information in a dynamical regime between silence and chaotic dynamics. This has lead to the criticality hypothesis which suggests that neural systems reach such a state by self-organizing towards the critical point…
A mechanism for self-organization of the degree of connectivity in model neural networks is studied. Network connectivity is regulated locally on the basis of an order parameter of the global dynamics which is estimated from an observable…

We consider the renormalization of quenched bond disorder in the Ising model in the limit that it is sparse -- highly localized and vanishing in the thermodynamic limit. We begin in 1D with arbitrary disorder assigned to a finite number of…
Quenched randomness can lead to robust non-equilibrium phases of matter in periodically driven (Floquet) systems. Analyzing transitions between such dynamical phases requires a method capable of treating the twin complexities of disorder…

We consider the sample to sample fluctuations that occur in the value of a thermodynamic quantity $P$ in an ensemble of finite systems with quenched disorder, at equilibrium. The variance of $P$, $V_{P}$, which characterizes these…

We consider critical phenomena on heterogeneous small-world networks having a scale-free character but also arbitrary short-loops. After deriving the self-consistent equation for the order parameter and the critical surface, we prove that…

The Ising and BEG models critical behavior is analyzed in 2D and 3D by means of a renormalization group scheme on small clusters made of a few lattice cells. Different kinds of cells are proposed for both ordered and disordered model cases.…
We show that preferential rewiring, which is supposed to mimick the behaviour of financial agents, changes a directed-network Ising ferromagnet with a single critical point into a model with robust critical behaviour. For the non-rewired…
Critical behavior of the contact process is studied in annealed scale-free networks by mapping it on the random walk problem. We obtain the analytic results for the critical scaling, using the event-driven dynamics approach. These results…
