The existing calculations of the nuclear matrix elements of the neutrinoless double beta-decay differ by about a factor three. This uncertainty prevents quantative interpretation of the results of experiments searching for this process. We…
In a new type of percolation phase transition, which was observed in a set of non-equilibrium models, each new connection between vertices is chosen from a number of possibilities by an Achlioptas-like algorithm. This causes preferential…

We investigate the so-called monochromatic arm exponents for critical percolation in two dimensions. These exponents, describing the probability of observing j disjoint macroscopic paths, are shown to exist and to form a different family…
We study infinite ternary words that contain few distinct palindromes. In particular, we classify such words according to their critical exponent.
Connections are found between the two-component percolation problem and the conductor/insulator percolation problem. These produce relations between critical exponents, and suggest formulae connecting the conductivity exponents in different…

Reactions of nuclear multifragmentation of excited finite nuclei can be interpreted as manifestation of the nuclear liquid-gas phase transition. During this process the matter at subnuclear density clusterizes into hot primary fragments,…
In this contribution we show that the biggest fragment charge distribution in central collisions of Xe+Sn leading to multifragmentation is an admixture of two asymptotic distributions observed for the lowest and highest bombarding energies.…
We look for signals of criticality in multifragment production in heavy-ion collisions using model-independent universal fluctuations theory. The phenomenon is studied as a function of system size, bombarding energy, and impact parameter in…
We consider a model where, for a finite disintegrating system, yields of composites can be calculated to arbitrary accuracy. An analytic answer for yields is also known in the thermodynamic limit. In the range of temperature and density…
