Dynamically accelerated cover times
Gcina Maziya, Luca Cocconi, Gunnar Pruessner +1
Among observables characterising the random exploration of a graph or lattice, the cover time, namely the time to visit every site, continues to attract widespread interest. Much i…
Phase transition, scaling of moments, and order-parameter distributions in Brownian particles and branching processes with finite-size effects
Alvaro Corral, Rosalba Garcia-Millan, Nicholas R. Moloney +1
We revisit the problem of Brownian diffusion with drift in order to study finite-size effects in the geometric Galton-Watson branching process. This is possible because of an exact…
Percolation on trees as a Brownian excursion: from Gaussian to Kolmogorov-Smirnov to Exponential statistics
Francesc Font-Clos, Nicholas R. Moloney
We calculate the distribution of the size of the percolating cluster on a tree in the subcritical, critical and supercritical phase. We do this by exploiting a mapping between cont…
Data-Driven Prediction of Thresholded Time Series of Rainfall and SOC models
Anna Deluca, Nicholas R. Moloney, Alvaro Corral
We study the occurrence of events, subject to threshold, in a representative SOC sandpile model and in high-resolution rainfall data. The predictability in both systems is analyzed…
The perils of thresholding
Francesc Font-Clos, Gunnar Pruessner, Anna Deluca +1
The thresholding of time series of activity or intensity is frequently used to define and differentiate events. This is either implicit, for example due to resolution limits, or ex…
Analysis of an information-theoretic model for communication
Ronald Dickman, Nicholas R. Moloney, Eduardo G. Altmann
We study the cost-minimization problem posed by Ferrer i Cancho and Solé in their model of communication that aimed at explaining the origin of Zipf's law [PNAS 100, 788 (2003)]. D…
