Central place systems have been demonstrated to possess self-similarity in both the theoretical and empirical perspectives. A central place model can be treated as a monofractal with a single scaling process. However, a real system of human settlements is a complex network with multi-scaling...

In this paper, we propose a pinning synchronization control scheme in complex networks with non-delay and delay couplings, which uses two switched periods to provide intermittent control. Criteria ensuring global exponential synchronization are obtained based on strict mathematical proofs....

A lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) based computational REV model of geochemical reaction is proposed to describe the geochemical reactions of both solute ions transport and solid phase CaCO3 dissolution in CO2-saturated water as well as their effects on the velocity fields of fluid flows during a...

In this paper, the long-range cross-correlation of Chinese stock indices is systematically studied. The multifractal detrended cross-correlation analysis (MF-DXA) appears to be one of the most effective methods in detecting long-range cross-correlation of two non-stationary variables. The...

As an aggregate measure of the variations in individuals, the analysis of mobility provides a substantial and comprehensive perspective into the complexity of socio-economic systems. In this paper, we introduced the ranking mobility index to measure the ranking variations of the stocks in...

We investigate the spatiotemporal dynamics with mixing degrees of nonlinear chaotic maps in coupling connections. Here, the coupling methods between lattices are both linear neighborhood coupling and the nonlinear chaotic map coupling of lattices. While strictly nearest neighborhood coupling is...

We investigate the problem of dynamic optimal capital growth of a portfolio. A general framework that one strives to maximize the expected logarithm utility of long term growth rate was developed. Exact optimization algorithms run into difficulties in this framework and this motivates the...

For the multi-agent spatial Parrondo’s games, the available theoretical analysis methods based on the discrete-time Markov chain were assumed that the losing and winning states of an ensemble of N players were represented to be the system states. The number of system states was 2N types....

In the paper, two-lane traffic flow considering lane changing behaviors has been discussed based on the control theory, and the friction interference which is from the neighbor lane has been taken into account. By using the control method, the stability condition is derived. The feedback...

In this work, we investigate how the random long-range interactions (RLRIs) affect the directed transport properties of inertial particles in networks. The particles are driven by periodic time-dependent external forces, under the influence of an asymmetric periodic potential of the inertial...
