The concept of "self-organized criticality" (SOC) has been introduced by Bak, Tang, and Wiesenfeld (1987) to describe the statistics of avalanches on the surface of a sandpile with a critical slope, which produces a scale-free powerlaw size…
The "Self-organized criticality" (SOC), introduced in 1987 by Bak, Tang and Wiesenfeld, was an attempt to explain the 1/f noise, but it rapidly evolved towards a more ambitious scope: explaining scale invariant avalanches. In two decades,…
We introduce a dissipative version of the Zhang's model of Self-Organized Criticality, where a parameter allows to tune the local energy dissipation. We analyze the main dynamical features of the model and relate in particular the Lyapunov…
Self-organized criticality (SOC) refers to the ability of complex systems to evolve towards a 2nd-order phase transition at which interactions between system components lead to scale-invariant events beneficial for system performance. For…
It is a common belief that power-law distributed avalanches are inherently unpredictable. This idea affects phenomena as diverse as evolution, earthquakes, superconducting vortices, stock markets, etc; from atomic to social scales. It…
The concept of Self-Organized Criticality (SOC) was proposed in an attempt to explain the widespread appearance of power-law in nature. It describes a mechanism in which a system reaches spontaneously a state where the characteristic events…
We investigate a random--neighbours version of the two dimensional non-conserving earthquake model of Olami, Feder and Christensen [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 68}, 1244 (1992)]. We show both analytically and numerically that criticality can be…
Avalanches, or Avalanche-like, events are often observed in the dynamical behaviour of many complex systems which span from solar flaring to the Earth's crust dynamics and from traffic flows to financial markets. Self-organized criticality…
A simple random-neighbor SOC model that combines properties of the Bak-Sneppen and the relaxation oscillators (slip-stick) models is introduced. The analysis in terms of branching processes is transparent and gives insight about the…
The avalanche properties of models that exhibit 'self-organized criticality' (SOC) are still mostly awaiting theoretical explanations. A recent mapping (Europhys. Lett.~53, 569) of many sandpile models to interface depinning is presented…
We show that, at the critical temperature, there is a class of Lee-Yang zeros of the partition function in a general scalar field theory, which location scales with the size of the system with a characteristic exponent expressed in terms of…
Multiplicative logarithmic corrections to scaling are frequently encountered in the critical behavior of certain statistical-mechanical systems. Here, a Lee-Yang zero approach is used to systematically analyse the exponents of such…
Scale-free behavior as well as oscillations are frequently observed in the activity of many natural systems. One important example is the cortical tissues of mammalian brain where both phenomena are simultaneously observed. Rhythmic…
We develop a dynamical system approach for the Zhang's model of Self-Organized Criticality, for which the dynamics can be described either in terms of Iterated Function Systems, or as a piecewise hyperbolic dynamical system of skew-product…
The Lee-Yang theory of adsorbing self-avoiding walks is presented. It is shown that Lee-Yang zeros of the generating function of this model asymptotically accumulate uniformly on a circle in the complex plane, and that Fisher zeros of the…
We investigate the relevance of {\sl self-organized criticality (SOC)} models in previously published empirical datasets, which includes statistical observations in astrophysics, geophysics, biophysics, sociophysics, and informatics. We…
We study spin-glass systems characterized by continuous occurrence of singularities. The theory of Lee-Yang zeros is used to find the singularities. By using the replica method in mean-field systems, we show that two-dimensional…
In this chapter 2 of the e-book "Self-Organized Criticality Systems" we summarize the classical cellular automaton models, which consist of a statistical aspect that is universal to all SOC systems, and a physical aspect that depends on the…
The analytic structure of the partition function in finite-volume systems is investigated at complex chemical potentials in a minimal mean-field effective model of QCD with finite-size effects incorporated. We discuss the temperature…
In [Braz. J. Phys. 30, 27 (2000)] Dickman et al. suggested that self-organized criticality can be produced by coupling the activity of an absorbing state model to a dissipation mechanism and adding an external drive. We analyzed the…
