Self-Organized Criticality as a Phase Transition
The original sandpile model of Bak, Tang and Wiesenfeld from 1987 has inspired lots of consequent work and further ideas of how to describe the birth of scale-invariant statistics in various systems and in particular models. In this article the basic ingredients of self-organized criticality (SOC) are overviewed. In line with the orginal arguments of BTW SOC is now known to be a property of sys...
متن کاملSelf-organized criticality in evolutionary systems with local interaction
This paper studies a stylized model of local interaction where agents choose from an ever increasing set of vertically ranked actions, e.g. technologies. The driving forces of the model are infrequent upward shifts (“updates”), followed by a rapid process of local imitation (“diffusion”). Our main focus is on the regularities displayed by the long-run distribution of diffusion waves and their i...
متن کاملSelf-Organized Criticality
The causes and possible relations between the abundance of fractal structures and 1/f signals found in nature have puzzled scientists for years. Based on observations of computer simulations of the cellular automata sandpile model, the term, self-organized criticality (SOC) was invented by theoretical physicists Bak and coworkers (1987) and was used to explain a universal dynamic organizing pro...
متن کاملSelf-organized criticality
We study the concept of the self-organized criticality (SOC) and its application to a wide range of scientific problems with very different backgrounds. In particular, we discuss the Bak-TangWiesenfeld sandpile model which displays SOC behavior and by computing the critical exponent for the two-dimensional model we find the agreement with the known result. Finally, we provide a new example of Z...
متن کاملSelf-Organized Criticality
The concept of self-organized criticality (SOC) has been evoked by Bak, Tang and Wiesenfeld (BTW) as a possible unifying framework to describe a vast class of dynamically driven systems which evolve spontaneously toward a critical stationary state with no characteristic time or length scale. In this essay we will discuss SOC models that have been studied and to what extent they are related to r...
