Scale free dynamics are observed in a variety of physical and biological systems. These include neural activity in which evidence for scale freeness has been reported using a range of imaging modalities. Here, we derive the ways in which…
Catastrophe Markov chain population models have received a lot of attention in the recent past. We herewith consider two special cases of such models involving total disasters, both in discrete and in continuous-time. Depending on the…
Scale-free dynamics in physical and biological systems can arise from a variety of causes. Here, we explore a branching process which leads to such dynamics. We find conditions for the appearance of power laws and study quantitatively what…
An analysis of moments and spectra shows that, while the distribution of avalanche areas obeys finite size scaling, that of toppling numbers is universally characterized by a full, nonlinear multifractal spectrum. Rare, large avalanches…
The short-time and long-time dynamics of the Bak-Sneppen model of biological evolution are investigated using the damage spreading technique. By defining a proper Hamming distance measure, we are able to make it exhibits an initial…
The Bak--Sneppen model is a simple stochastic model of evolution that exhibits self-organized criticality and for which few analytical results have been established. In the original Bak-Sneppen model and many subsequent variants,…
We report on extensive numerical simulations on the Bak-Sneppen model in high dimensions. We uncover a very rich behavior as a function of dimensionality. For d>2 the avalanche cluster becomes fractal and for d \ge 4 the process becomes…
Kesten's stochastic recurrent equation is a classical subject of research in probability theory and its applications. Recently, it has garnered attention as a model for stochastic gradient descent with a quadratic objective function and the…
Avalanches whose sizes and durations are distributed as power laws appear in many contexts. Here, we show that there is a hidden peril in thresholding continuous times series --either from empirical or synthetic data-- for the detection of…
We consider a nonlinear discrete stochastic control system, and our goal is to design a feedback control policy in order to lead the system to a prespecified state. We adopt a stochastic approximation viewpoint of this problem. It is known…
Generative models based on static scalar energy functions represent an emerging paradigm in which a single time independent potential drives sample generation through its gradient field, eliminating the need for time conditioning entirely.…
The scaling behaviour of the Lyapunov exponent near the transition to chaos via type-III intermittency is determined for a generic map. A critical exponent $\beta$ expressing the scaling of the Lyapunov exponent as a function of both, the…
We demonstrate that scale-free patterns are observed in a spatially extended stochastic system whose deterministic part undergoes a saddle-node bifurcation. Remarkably, the scale-free patterns appear only at a particular time in relaxation…
We implement the damage spreading technique on 2-dimensional isotropic and anisotropic Bak-Sneppen models. Our extensive numerical simulations show that there exists a power-law sensitivity to the initial conditions at the statistically…
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 Bak-Sneppen model displaying punctuated equilibria in biological evolution is studied on random complex networks. By using the rate equation and the random walk approaches, we obtain the analytic solution of the fitness threshold $x_c$…
We study the Bak-Sneppen model on locally finite transitive graphs $G$, in particular on Z^d and on T_Delta, the regular tree with common degree Delta. We show that the avalanches of the Bak-Sneppen model dominate independent site…
Recent work has introduced the concept of finite-time scaling to characterize bifurcation diagrams at finite times in deterministic discrete dynamical systems, drawing an analogy with finite-size scaling used to study critical behavior in…
We introduce a new quantity, average fitness, into the Bak-Sneppen evolution model. Through the new quantity, a different hierarchy of avalanches is observed. The gap equation, in terms of the average fitness, is presented to describe the…
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…
