The universal behaviour of superconductors near the phase transition is described by the three-dimensional field theory of scalar quantum electrodynamics. We approximately solve the model with the help of non-perturbative flow equations. A…
We perform large-scale numerical simulations to investigate the critical behavior of $k$-core percolation in two dimensions with an extended interaction range $r$. By systematically varying both the core index $k$ and the interaction range…

The recent proliferation of correlated percolation models---models where the addition of edges/vertices is no longer independent of other edges/vertices---has been motivated by the quest to find discontinuous percolation transitions. The…
We study critical spreading in a surface-modified directed percolation model in which the left- and right-most sites have different occupation probabilities than in the bulk. As we vary the probability for growth at an edge, the critical…
The universal behaviour of the directed percolation universality class is well understood, both the critical scaling as well as finite size scaling. This article focuses on the block (finite size) scaling of the order parameter and its…
We study the effects of spatially inhomogeneous diffusion on the non-equilibrium phase transition in the contact process. The directed-percolation critical point in the contact process is known to be stable against the addition of a…
Deterministic classical cellular automata can be in two phases, depending on how irreversible the dynamical rules are. In the strongly irreversible phase, trajectories with different initial conditions coalesce quickly, while in the weakly…

The one-dimensional pair contact process with diffusion (PCPD), an interacting particle system with diffusion, pair annihilation, and creation by pairs, has defied a consensus about the universality class that it belongs to. An argument by…
The model of a one-dimensional kinetic contact process with parallel update is studied by the Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling. The goal was to reveal the structure of the hidden percolative patterns (order parameters) in the…
Systems with absorbing (trapped) states may exhibit a nonequilibrium phase transition from a noise-free inactive phase into an ever-lasting active phase. We briefly review the absorbing critical phenomena and universality classes, and…
Recently, the number of non-standard percolation models has proliferated. In all these models, there exists a phase transition at which long range connectivity is established, if local connectedness increases through a threshold $p_c$. In…
In this work we consider five different lattice models which exhibit continuous phase transitions into absorbing states. By measuring certain universal functions, which characterize the steady state as well as the dynamical scaling…
The absorbing-state transition in the three-dimensional contact process with and without quenched randomness is investigated by means of Monte-Carlo simulations. In the clean case, a reweighting technique is combined with a careful…
We consider systems whose steady-states exhibit a nonequilibrium phase transition from an active state to one -among an infinite number- absorbing state, as some control parameter is varied across a threshold value. The pair contact…
The directed percolation process in the vicinity of non-equilibrium phase transition is studied by the means of field theoretic methods. It will be assumed that percolation takes place in a compressible environment, which will be generated…
We study the phase diagram and critical behavior of the one-dimensional pair contact process (PCP) with a particle source using cluster approximations and extensive simulations. The source creates isolated particles only, not pairs, and so…
