Adoption of Innovations with Contrarians and Repentant Agents

Mirta B. Gordon, M. F. Laguna, S. Goncalves +1

The dynamics of adoption of innovations is an important subject in many fields and areas, like technological development, industrial processes, social behavior, fashion or marketin…

Statistical characterization of the standard map

Guiomar Ruiz, Ugur Tirnakli, Ernesto P. Borges +1

The standard map, paradigmatic conservative system in the phase space, has been recently shown to exhibit interesting statistical behaviors directly related to the value of…

Enabling quantum non-Markovian dynamics by injection of classical colored noise

J. I. Costa-Filho, R. B. B. Lima, R. R. Paiva +4

The non-Markovian nature of quantum systems recently turned to be a key subject for investigations on open quantum system dynamics. Many studies, from its theoretical grounding to…

Quantum and thermal melting of stripe forming systems with competing long ranged interactions

Alejandro Mendoza-Coto, Daniel G. Barci, Daniel A. Stariolo

We study the quantum melting of stripe phases in models with competing short range and long range interactions decaying with distance as in two space dimensions. At zero te…

Fast computation method for comprehensive agent-level epidemic dissemination in networks

Gilberto M. Nakamura, Ana Carolina P. Monteiro, George C. Cardoso +1

Two simple agent based models are often employed in epidemic studies: the susceptible-infected (SI) and the susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS). Both models describe the time ev…

Spin-glass phase transition and behavior of nonlinear susceptibility in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model with random fields

C. V. Morais, F. M. Zimmer, M. J. Lazo +2

The behavior of the nonlinear susceptibility and its relation to the spin-glass transition temperature , in the presence of random fields, are investigated. To accomplis…

Analytic solutions for links and triangles distributions in finite Barabási-Albert networks

Ricardo M. Ferreira, Rita M. C. de Almeida, Leonardo G. Brunnet

Barabási-Albert model describes many different natural networks, often yielding sensible explanations to the subjacent dynamics. However, finite size effects may prevent from disce…

Role of the plurality rule in multiple choices

Angelo M. Calvão, Marlon Ramos, Celia Anteneodo

People are often challenged to select one among several alternatives. This situation is present not only in decisions about complex issues, e.g., political or academic choices, but…

Dynamics and Statistics of the Fermi--Pasta--Ulam --model with different ranges of particle interactions

Helen Christodoulidi, Tassos Bountis, Constantino Tsallis +1

In the present work we study the Fermi--Pasta--Ulam (FPU) --model involving long--range interactions (LRI) in both the quadratic and quartic potentials, by introducing two indep…

Transient superdiffusion and long-range correlations in the motility patterns of trypanosomatid flagellate protozoa

L. G. A. Alves, D. B. Scariot, R. R. Guimarães +3

We report on a diffusive analysis of the motion of flagellate protozoa species. These parasites are the etiological agents of neglected tropical diseases: leishmaniasis caused by L…

Generalized Nonlinear Proca Equation and its Free-Particle Solutions

F. D. Nobre, A. R. Plastino

We introduce a non-linear extension of Proca's field theory for massive vector (spin ) bosons. The associated relativistic nonlinear wave equation is related to recently advance…

Generalization of the possible algebraic basis of -triplets

Constantino Tsallis

The so called -triplets were conjectured in 2004 and then found in nature in 2005. A relevant further step was achieved in 2005 when the possibility was advanced that they could…

Position-dependent mass quantum Hamiltonians: General approach and duality

M. A. Rego-Monteiro, Ligia M. C. S. Rodrigues, E. M. F. Curado

We analyze a general family of position-dependent mass quantum Hamiltonians which are not self-adjoint and include, as particular cases, some Hamiltonians obtained in phenomenologi…

Consequences of nonconformist behaviors in a continuous opinion model

Allan R. Vieira, Celia Anteneodo, Nuno Crokidakis

We investigate opinion formation in a kinetic exchange opinion model, where opinions are represented by numbers in the real interval and agents are typified by the individ…

On the connection between linear combination of entropies and linear combination of extremizing distributions

Gabriele Sicuro, Debarshee Bagchi, Constantino Tsallis

We analyze the distribution that extremizes a linear combination of the Boltzmann--Gibbs entropy and the nonadditive -entropy. We show that this distribution can be expressed in…
