Since 1996, eight elections have taken place in postcommunist Europe and Eurasia that have replaced illiberal with liberal governments. There is ample evidence that these “electoral revolutions” reflected the cross-national diffusion of a distinctive model of regime change that was developed...

We consider Brownian motion in the space of fields and show that such a random field interacting with threshold type detectors produces clicks at random moments of time. The corresponding probability distribution can be approximately described by the same mathematical formalism as is used in...

A theoretical study of a mixed spin Ising system consisting of spin-1/2 and spin-1 with a random field is studied by the use of the finite cluster approximation within the framework of a single-site cluster theory. In this approach, the phase diagrams and magnetizations are investigated for the...

We study spatial embeddings of random graphs in which nodes are randomly distributed in geographical space. We let the edge probability between any two nodes to be dependent on the spatial distance between them and demonstrate that this model captures many generic properties of social networks,...
