Intersections of pedestrian flows feature multiple types, varying in the numbers of flow directions as well as intersecting angles. In this article results from intersecting flow experiments with two different intersecting angles are compared. To analyze the transport capabilities the Voronoi...

In this paper, we investigate the stochastic resonance phenomenon in a vegetation ecological system with time delay, at which the vegetation dynamics is assumed to be disturbed by both intrinsic and extrinsic noises. The signal-to-noise ratio is calculated when a weak periodic signal is added to...

The partition function zeros of the antiferromagnetic spin-12 Ising–Heisenberg model on a diamond chain are studied using the transfer matrix method. Analytical equations for the distributions of Yang–Lee and Fisher zeros are derived. The Yang–Lee zeros are located on an arc of the unit...

We formulate a Bohr-type rotating particle model for three light particles of rest mass mo each, forming a bound rotational state under the influence of their gravitational attraction, in the same way that electrostatic attraction leads to the formation of a bound proton–electron state in the...

An agent-based model for financial markets has to incorporate two aspects: decision making and price formation. We introduce a simple decision model and consider its implications in two different pricing schemes. First, we study its parameter dependence within a supply–demand balance setting....

Recent work has shown that the mathematics of multifractal can be used to provide a quantitative signature in many fields. In this paper, we investigate the traffic time series for volume data observed on Guangshen highway. Firstly, we find there exists a multifractal behavior in the traffic...

Selection of the competition opponent is crucial for the evolution of cooperation in evolutionary games. In this work, we introduce a simple rule, incorporating individual popularity via the single parameter α, to study how the selection of the potential strategy sources influences individual...

We study the thermodynamics of systems based on a Fock space representation inspired by the differential–difference operators proposed in Dunkl (1989). We calculate thermodynamic functions as the entropy and heat capacity and compare them with the standard boson case. A calculation of the...

A dissipative quantum walk (according to the semigroup approach) has been used as the starting point from which to study quantum correlations in an open system. This system is a fruitful model that allows the definition of several bipartite systems (sets of qubits). Thus the quantum correlations...

We develop a probabilistic consumer choice framework based on information asymmetry between consumers and firms. This framework makes it possible to study market competition of several firms by both quality and price of their products. We find Nash market equilibria and other optimal strategies...
