We derive from first principles the mechanical pressure $P$, defined as the force per unit area on a bounding wall, in a system of spherical, overdamped, active Brownian particles at density $\rho$. Our exact result relates $P$, in closed…
We describe the component sizes in critical independent p-bond percolation on a random d-regular graph on n vertices, where d \geq 3 is fixed and n grows. We prove mean-field behavior around the critical probability p_c=1/(d-1). In…
We consider the contact process near an extended surface defect, where the local control parameter deviates from the bulk one by an amount of $\lambda(l)-\lambda(\infty) = A l^{-s}$, $l$ being the distance from the surface. We concentrate…
We consider oriented percolation on Z^d times Z_+ whose bond-occupation probability is pD(...), where p is the percolation parameter and D is a probability distribution on Z^d. Suppose that D(x) decays as |x|^{-d-\alpha} for some \alpha>0.…
The geometry and morphology of magnetic domain walls (DWs) are closely related to their dynamics when driven by external forces. Under some reliable approximations DWs can be considered self-affine interfaces, so universal laws govern their…
A $(1+1)$ dimensional model of directed percolation is introduced where sites on a tilted square lattice are connected to their neighbours by $N$ channels, operated at both ends by valves which are either open or closed. The spreading fluid…

We study the critical behavior of various geometrical and transport properties of percolation in 6 dimensions. By employing field theory and renormalization group methods we analyze fluctuation induced logarithmic corrections to scaling up…
The onset of rigidity in interacting liquids, as they undergo a transition to a disordered solid, is associated with a rearrangement of the low-frequency vibrational spectrum. In this letter, we derive scaling forms for the singular…
A random hopping on a fractal network with dimension slightly above one, $d = 1 + \epsilon$, is considered as a model of transport for conducting polymers with nonmetallic conductivity. Within the real space renormalization group method of…
We show analytically that the $[0,1]$, $[1,1]$ and $[2,1]$ Pad{\'e} approximants of the mean cluster number $S(p)$ for site and bond percolation on general $d$-dimensional lattices are upper bounds on this quantity in any Euclidean…
In this paper, the spatial dynamics of the atmospheric particulate matters (resp. PM$_{10}$ and PM$_{2.5}$) are studied using turbulence methodologies. It is found experimentally that the spatial correlation function $\rho(r)$ shows a…
We propose the area swept $A(t)$ and the winding angle $\Omega(t)$ as the key observables to characterize chiral active motion. We find that the distributions of the scaled area and the scaled winding angle are described by universal…
We study the behavior of scale-free networks, having connectivity distribution P(k) k^-a, close to the percolation threshold. We show that for networks with 3<a<4, known to undergo a transition at a finite threshold of dilution, the…
The scaling behavior of the closed trajectories of a moving particle generated by randomly placed rotators or mirrors on a square or triangular lattice in the critical region are investigated. We study numerically two scaling functions:…
