The Abelian sandpile model serves as a canonical example of self-organized criticality. This critical behavior manifests itself through large cascading events triggered by small perturbations. Such large-scale events, known as avalanches,…
The abelian sandpile model in two dimensions does not show the type of critical behavior familar from equilibrium systems. Rather, the properties of the stationary state follow from the condition that an avalanche started at a distance r…
Vicsek fractal graphs are an important class of infinite graphs with self similar properties, polynomial growth and treelike features, on which several dynamical processes such as random walks or Abelian sandpiles can be rigorously analyzed…
We compute the lattice 1-site probabilities, on the upper half-plane, of the four height variables in the two-dimensional Abelian sandpile model. We find their exact scaling form when the insertion point is far from the boundary, and when…
We study here a variant of the Abelian Sandpile Model, where the playground is a cylinder of width $w$ and of circumference c. When c << w, we describe a phenomenon which has not been observed in other geometries: the probability…
In the single-source sandpile model, a number $N$ grains of sand are positioned at a central vertex on the 2-dimensional grid $\mathbb{Z}^2$. We study the stabilisation of this configuration for a stochastic sandpile model based on a…
This survey is an extended version of lectures given at the Cornell Probability Summer School 2013. The fundamental facts about the Abelian sandpile model on a finite graph and its connections to related models are presented. We discuss…
We consider the Abelian sandpile model (ASM) on the large square lattice with a single dissipative site (sink). Particles are added by one per unit time at random sites and the resulting density of particles is calculated as a function of…
An Abelian sandpile model is considered on the Husimi lattice of triangles with an arbitrary coordination number q. Exact expressions for the distribution of height probabilities in the Self-Organized Critical state are derived.
An Abelian sandpile model is considered on the Husimi lattice of square plaquettes. Exact expressions for the distribution of height probabilities in the Self-Organized Critical state are derived. The two-point correlation function for the…
The abelian sandpile serves as a model to study self-organized criticality, a phenomenon occurring in biological, physical and social processes. The identity of the abelian group is a fractal composed of self-similar patches, and its limit…
We analyze the two-dimensional Abelian sandpile model, and demonstrate that the four height variables have different field identifications in the bulk, and along closed boundaries, but become identical, up to rescaling, along open…
The Abelian Sandpile Model (ASM) is a game played on a graph realizing the dynamics implicit in the discrete Laplacian matrix of the graph. The purpose of this primer is to apply the theory of lattice ideals from algebraic geometry to the…
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…
The aim of the current work is to investigate structural properties of the sandpile group of a special class of self-similar graphs. More precisely, we consider Abelian sandpiles on Sierpinski gasket graphs and for the choice of normal…
The existing estimation of the upper critical dimension of the Abelian Sandpile Model is based on a qualitative consideration of avalanches as self-avoiding branching processes. We find an exact representation of an avalanche as a sequence…
We study the steady state of the abelian sandpile models with stochastic toppling rules. The particle addition operators commute with each other, but in general these operators need not be diagonalizable. We use their abelian algebra to…
We consider a continuous height version of the Abelian sandpile model with small amount of bulk dissipation gamma > 0 on each toppling, in dimensions d = 2, 3. In the limit gamma -> 0, we give a power law upper bound, based on coupling, on…
We numerically study avalanches in the two dimensional Abelian sandpile model in terms of a sequence of waves of toppling events. Priezzhev et al [PRL 76, 2093 (1996)] have recently proposed exact results for the critical exponents in this…
We present a detailed analysis of large scale simulations of avalanches in the 2D Abelian sandpile model. We compare statistical properties of two different decompositions of avalanches into clusters of topplings and waves of topplings.…
