This thesis presents several aspects of the physics of disordered elastic systems and of the analytical methods used for their study. On one hand we will be interested in universal properties of avalanche processes in the statics and…
We consider the nonabelian sandpile model defined on directed trees by Ayyer, Schilling, Steinberg and Thi\'ery (Commun. Math. Phys, 2013) and restrict it to the special case of a one-dimensional lattice of $n$ sites which has open…
We introduce a general deterministic model for Apollonian Networks in an iterative fashion. The networks have small-world effect and scale-free topology. We calculate the exact results for the degree exponent, the clustering coefficient and…
We present a detailed analysis of large scale simulations of avalanches in the 2D Abelian sandpile model. We compare statistical properties of two different decompositions of avalanches into clusters of topplings and waves of topplings.…
The transfer matrix and matrix multiplication ansatz, when applied to nonequilibrium steady states in asymmetric exclusion processed and traffic models, has given many exact results for phase diagrams, bulk densities and fluxes, as well as…
The Abelian sandpile process evolves configurations of chips on the integer lattice by toppling any vertex with at least 4 chips, distributing one of its chips to each of its 4 neighbors. When begun from a large stack of chips, the terminal…
Using the transfer matrix method, we give the exact solution of a deterministic sandpile model for arbitrary $N$, where $N$ is the size of a single toppling. The one- and two-point functions are given in term of the eigenvalues of an $N…
There is a well-known relationship between the binary Pascal's triangle and Sierpinski triangle in which the latter obtained from the former by successive modulo 2 additions on one of its corners. Inspired by that, we define a binary…
We generate new mathematical tools with which to quantify the macroscopic topological structure of large directed networks. This is achieved via a statistical mechanical analysis of constrained maximum entropy ensembles of directed random…
We report arrays of monodisperse water-in-oil microdroplets printed onto a substrate in a form of a compact linear chain -- a 1D-crystal -- pinned at one end. The chain spontaneously collapses under capillary forces via a sequence of…
The theory of a flux steady-state (avalanche) formation is presented for the simplest model of a real sand pile within the framework of Lorenz approach. The stationary values of sand velocity and sand pile slope are derived as functions of…
Suppose that under the action of gravity, liquid drains through the unit $d$-cube via a minimal-length network of channels constrained to pass through random sites and to flow with nonnegative component in one of the canonical orthogonal…
A new sandpile model is studied in which bonds of the system are inhibited for activity after a certain number of transmission of grains. This condition impels an unstable sand column to distribute grains only to those neighbours which have…
The directed preferential attachment model is revisited. A new exact characterization of the limiting in- and out-degree distribution is given by two \emph{independent} pure birth processes that are observed at a common exponentially…
Experimentally observed complex networks are often scale-free, small-world and have unexpectedly large number of small cycles. Apollonian network is one notable example of a model network respecting simultaneously having all three of these…
First principle network models are crucial to make sense of the intricate topology of real complex networks. While modeling efforts have been quite successful in undirected networks, generative models for networks with asymmetric…
A new algorithm for the derivation of low-density series for percolation on directed lattices is introduced and applied to the square lattice bond and site problems. Numerical evidence shows that the computational complexity grows…
We show that the dissipative Abelian sandpile on a graph L can be related to a random walk on a graph which consists of L extended with a trapping site. From this relation it can be shown, using exact results and a scaling assumption, that…
Traditional graph analysis focuses on nodes and edges, that is, pairwise relationships. Yet many real-world networks, including biological, social, and communication networks, involve higher-order relationships in which multiple nodes…
We prove a necessary and sufficient condition for an Abelian Sandpile Model (ASM) to be avalanche-finite, namely: all unstable states of the system can be brought back to stability in finite number of topplings. The method is also…
