Scaling describes how a given quantity $Y$ that characterizes a system varies with its size $P$. For most complex systems it is of the form $Y\sim P^\beta$ with a nontrivial value of the exponent $\beta$, usually determined by regression…

We develop a new method for studying the asymptotics of symmetric polynomials of representation-theoretic origin as the number of variables tends to infinity. Several applications of our method are presented: We prove a number of theorems…

We perform an experimental study of the time behavior of the $\alpha$-wave events occuring in human electroencephalographic signals. We find that the fraction of the time spent in an $\alpha$-burst of time size $\tau$ exhibits a scaling…

Consider the following stochastic heat equation, \begin{align*} \frac{\partial u_t(x)}{\partial t}=-\nu(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2} u_t(x)+\sigma(u_t(x))\dot{F}(t,\,x), \quad t>0, \; x \in R^d. \end{align*} Here $-\nu(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}$ is the…

$1/f^\alpha$ noises are ubiquitous and affect many measurements. These noises are both a nuisance and a peculiarity of several physical systems; in dielectrics, glasses and networked liquids it is very common to study this noise to gather…

The escape rate of a stochastic dynamical system can be found as an expansion in powers of the noise strength. In previous work the coefficients of such an expansion for a one-dimensional map were fitted to a general form containing a few…

We use an effective Markovian description to study the long-time behaviour of a nonlinear second order Langevin equation with Gaussian noise. When dissipation is neglected, the energy of the system grows as with time a power-law with an…

Let X,Y,B be three independent random variables such that $X$ has the same distribution function as Y B. Assume that B is a Beta random variable with positive parameters a,b and Y has distribution function H. Pakes and Navarro (2007) show…

Many processes and models --in biological, physical, social, and other contexts-- produce trees whose depth scales logarithmically with the number of leaves. Phylogenetic trees, describing the evolutionary relationships between biological…

The problem is a power-law asymptotics of the probability that a self-similar process does not exceed a fixed level during long time. The exponent in such asymptotics is estimated for some Gaussian processes, including the fractional…

We consider a two-body quantum system in dimension one composed by a test particle interacting with an harmonic oscillator placed at the position $a>0$. At time zero the test particle is concentrated around the position $R_0$ with average…

We compute the beta-function and the anomalous dimension of all the non-derivative operators of the theory up to three-loops for the most general nearest-neighbour O(N)-invariant action together with some contributions to the four-loop…

Nonlinear diffusion is studied in the presence of multiplicative noise. The nonlinearity can be viewed as a ``wall'' limiting the motion of the diffusing field. A dynamic phase transition occurs when the system ``unbinds'' from the wall.…

The analytic and formal solutions of certain family of $q$-difference-differential equations under the action of a complex perturbation parameter is considered. The previous study of the last two authors provides information in the case…

The scaling of the longitudinal velocity structure functions, $S_q(r) = < | \delta u (r) |^q > \sim r^{\zeta_q}$, is analyzed up to order $q=8$ in a decaying rotating turbulence experiment from a large Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV)…

We study the effect of noise on the evolution of the growth factor of density perturbations in the context of the LCDM model. Stochasticity is introduced as a Wiener process amplified by an intensity parameter alpha. By comparing the…

The current paper is a corrected version of our previous paper arXiv:adap-org/9608001. Similarly to previous version we investigate the problem of flame propagation. This problem is studied as an example of unstable fronts that wrinkle on…
