Traditional percolation theory assumes static microscopic rules, limiting its ability to describe real-world complex systems where macroscopic order actively regulates local interactions. Here, we introduce feedback percolation, an unified…

Absorbing phase transition in restricted exclusion processes are characterized by simple integer exponents. We show that this critical behaviour flows to the directed percolation (DP) universality class when particle conservation is broken…

The pair contact process with diffusion (PCPD) has been recently investigated extensively, but its critical behavior is not yet clearly established. By introducing biased diffusion, we show that the external driving is relevant and the…

We study the contact process on spatially embedded networks, consisting of a regular square lattice with long-range connections. To generate the networks, a long-range connection is randomly added to each node $i$ of a square lattice,…

The evolution of complex correlated quantum systems such as random circuit networks is governed by the dynamical buildup of both entanglement and entropy. We here introduce a real-time field theory approach -- essentially a fusion of the $G…

At a continuous transition into a nonunique absorbing state, particle systems may exhibit nonuniversal critical behavior, in apparent violation of hyperscaling. We propose a generalized scaling theory for dynamic critical behavior at a…

Extended-range percolation is a robust percolation process that has relevance for quantum communication problems. In extended-range percolation nodes can be trusted or untrusted. Untrusted facilitator nodes are untrusted nodes that can…

A class of continuum models with a critical end point is considered whose Hamiltonian ${\mathcal{H}}[\phi,\psi]$ involves two densities: a primary order-parameter field, $\phi$, and a secondary (noncritical) one, $\psi$. Field-theoretic…
