The Apollonian packings (APs) are fractals that result from a space-filling procedure with spheres. We discuss the finite size effects for finite intervals $s\in[s_\mathrm{min},s_\mathrm{max}]$ between the largest and the smallest sizes of…
The structure of the large scale distribution of the galaxies have been widely studied since the publication of the first catalogs. Since large redshift samples are available, their analyses seem to show fractal correlations up to the…
In computer simulations performed in constant number of particles ensembles, although the total number of particles N contained in the simulation box does not fluctuate, hence giving a zero apparent compressibility, there are still local…
Studies of random close packing of spheres have advanced our knowledge about the structure of systems such as liquids, glasses, emulsions, granular media, and amorphous solids. When these systems are confined their structural properties…
The spatial distribution of unvisited/persistent sites in $d=1$ $A+A\to\emptyset$ model is studied numerically. Over length scales smaller than a cut-off $\xi(t)\sim t^{z}$, the set of unvisited sites is found to be a fractal. The fractal…
The fractal properties of four-dimensional Euclidean simplicial manifold generated by the dynamical triangulation are analyzed on the geodesic distance D between two vertices instead of the usual scale between two simplices. In order to…
We study the random walk of a particle in a compartmentalized environment, as realized in biological samples or solid state compounds. Each compartment is characterized by its length $L$ and the boundaries transmittance $T$. We identify two…
We investigate equal spheres packings generated from several experiments and from a large number of different numerical simulations. The structural organization of these disordered packings is studied in terms of the network of common…
We investigate dimension-theoretic properties of concentric topological spheres, which are fractal sets emerging both in pure and applied mathematics. We calculate the box dimension and Assouad spectrum of such collections, and use them to…

The debate on the correlation properties of galaxy structures has having an increasing interest during the last year. In this lecture we discuss the claims of different authors who have criticized our approach and results. In order to have…
Fractals and multifractals and their associated scaling laws provide a quantification of the complexity of a variety of scale invariant complex systems. Here, we focus on lattice multifractals which exhibit complex exponents associated with…
In order to understand characteristics common to distributions which have both fractal and non-fractal scale regions in a unified framework, we introduce a concept of typical scale. We employ a model of 2d gravity modified by the $R^2$ term…
We have built a new kind of manifolds which leads to an alternative new geometrical space. The study of the nowhere differentiable functions via a family of mean functions leads to a new characterization of this category of functions. A…
Fractional, anomalous diffusion in space-periodic potentials is investigated. The analytical solution for the effective, fractional diffusion coefficient in an arbitrary periodic potential is obtained in closed form in terms of two…
We present a review of the history and the present state of the fractal approach to the large-scale distribution of galaxies. Angular correlation function was used as a general instrument for the structure analysis. It was realized later…
The aim of this review article is to give a comprehensive description of the scaling properties detected for the distribution of cosmic structures. Due to the great variety of statistical methods to describe the large-scale structure of the…
We show that in general a spacetime having a quantum group symmetry has also a scale dependent fractal dimension which deviates from its classical value at short scales, a phenomenon that resembles what observed in some approaches to…
Over the past two decades or so, it has become increasingly appparent that, out to quite large distances, galaxies are distributed in a quasi-fractal fashion with fractal dimension $D \approx 2$. Whether or not this behaviour continues onto…
