We consider a lattice of coupled circle maps, a model arising naturally in descriptions of solid state phenomena such as Josephson junction arrays. We find that the onset of spatiotemporal intermittency (STI) in this system is analogous to…
Connectivity and reachability on temporal networks, which can describe the spreading of a disease, decimation of information or the accessibility of a public transport system over time, have been among the main contemporary areas of study…
The dynamic scaling of curved interfaces presents features that are strikingly different from those of the planar ones. Spherical surfaces above one dimension are flat because the noise is irrelevant in such cases. Kinetic roughening is…
The surface pattern formation on a gelation surface is analyzed using an effective surface roughness. The spontaneous surface deformation on DiMethylAcrylAmide (DMAA) gelation surface is controlled by temperature, initiator concentration,…
Standard diffusion models are flexible estimators of complex distributions, but they do not encode causal structures and therefore do not by themselves support causal analysis. We propose a causality-encoded diffusion framework that…
We study sandpile models with stochastic toppling rules and having sticky grains so that with a non-zero probability no toppling occurs, even if the local height of pile exceeds the threshold value. Dissipation is introduced by adding a…
We study the pore-scale transport of a conservative scalar forming an advancing mixing front, which can be re-interpreted to predict instantaneous mixing-limited bimolecular reactions. We investigate this using a set of two-dimensional,…
The two-dimensional site percolation problem is studied by transfer-matrix methods on finite-width strips with free boundary conditions. The relationship between correlation-length amplitudes and critical indices, predicted by conformal…
A brief review of our recent studies aiming at a better understanding of the scaling behaviour of polymers in disordered environments is given. The main emphasis is on a simple generic model where the polymers are represented by…
We introduce, test and discuss a method for classifying and clustering data modeled as directed graphs. The idea is to start diffusion processes from any subset of a data collection, generating corresponding distributions for reaching…
The pinning-depinning phase transitions of interfaces for two classes of discrete elastic-string models are investigated numerically. In the (1+1)-dimensions, we revisit these two elastic-string models with slight modification to growth…
We study the phase diagram of the site-diluted Ising model in a wide dilution range, through Monte Carlo simulations and Finite-Size Scaling techniques. Our results for the critical exponents and universal cumulants turn out to be…
Directed and heterogeneous hypergraphs capture directional higher-order interactions with intrinsically asymmetric functional dependencies among nodes. As a result, damage to certain nodes can suppress entire hyperedges, whereas failure of…
Driven elastic manifolds in random media exhibit a depinning transition to a state with non-vanishing velocity at a critical driving force. We study the depinning of stiff directed lines, which are governed by a bending rigidity rather than…
We study directed percolation at the upper critical transverse dimension $d=4$, where critical fluctuations induce logarithmic corrections to the leading (mean-field) behavior. Viewing directed percolation as a kinetic process, we address…
Correlation functions are sensitive to the presence of a boundary. Surface modulations give rise to modified near surface correlations, which can be measured by scattering probes. To determine these correlations, we develop a perturbative…
A directed hypergraph (dihypergraph) consists of a set of vertices and a set of hyperarcs, where each hyperarc is partitioned into a head and a tail. Directed hypergraphs are useful in many applications, including the study of chemical…
We present a numerical study on the dynamics of imbibition fronts in porous media using a pipe network model. This model quantitatively reproduces the anomalous scaling behavior found in imbibition experiments [Phys. Rev. E {\bf 52}, 5166…
Random graphs have played an instrumental role in modelling real-world networks arising from the internet topology, social networks, or even protein-interaction networks within cells. Percolation, on the other hand, has been the fundamental…
Interfaces advancing through random media represent a number of different problems in physics, biology and other disciplines. Here, we study the pinning/depinning transition of the prototypical non-equilibrium interfacial model, i.e. the…
