Motivated by the desire to model internet traffic we consider random walks that start and are absorbed on the leaves of random networks and study the length of such walks. We present and test two techniques to analyse these walks. On Erdős–Rényi random graphs where the probability of a walk...

We investigated the efficiency of attack strategies to network nodes when targeting several complex model and real-world networks. We tested 5 attack strategies, 3 of which were introduced in this work for the first time, to attack 3 model networks (Erdos and Renyi, Barabasi and Albert...

The correlation in time series has received considerable attention in the literature. Its use has attained an important role in the social sciences and finance. For example, pair trading in finance is concerned with the correlation between stock prices, returns, etc. In general, Pearson’s...

We analyze to what extent the emergence of fat-tailed q-Gaussian distributions of daily leverage returns of North American industrial companies that survive default and de-listing between 2006 and 2012 can be described by superstatistics. To this end, we compare mean values of the Tsallis...

This work is devoted to the study of the interaction between pulses of electromagnetic radiation and space-charge waves in laser-plasmas settings. We analyse modes depending only on the co-moving coordinate of the beam frame, but make no a priori assumption on the longitudinal-to-transverse...

We focus on the calculation of the entropy for decaying states in non-relativistic quantum mechanics. The starting point is the Friedrichs model in second quantization language. In this model, the Hamiltonian admits a spectral representation which includes resonances and Gamow states explicitly....

In this paper, the Immersed Moving Boundary-Lattice Boltzmann (IMB-LB) method is compared with the single relaxation time and multiple-relaxation-time versions of the Immersed Boundary-Lattice Boltzmann (IB-LB) method in terms of the amount of numerical velocity slip produced on solid...

A new Bell-type inequality is derived through the use of the Tsallis entropy to quantify the dependence between the classical outcomes of measurements performed on a bipartite quantum system, as typical of an EPR experiment. This new inequality is confronted with standard correlation-based Bell...

We investigate the localization properties of the single particle spectrum of a one-dimensional speckle potential in a box. We consider both the repulsive and the attractive cases. The system is controlled by two parameters: the size of the box and a rescaled potential intensity. The latter is a...

We present a very simple stochastic traffic cellular automaton (CA) model to reproduce synchronized traffic. This model aims to be nearly as simple as the well-known Nagel–Schreckenberg model, but to overcome to shortcomings of the latter: The Nagel–Schreckenberg model (NaSch) and its...
