We analyze numerically the critical behavior of an absorbing phase transition in a conserved lattice gas in an external field. The external field is realized as a spontaneous creation of active particles that drives the system away from criticality. Nevertheless, the order parameter obeys certain scaling laws for sufficiently small external fields. These scaling laws are investigated and the co...

We will present elementary scaling arguments focused on the thermodynamics in the proximity of the quantum critical point in the cuprate superconductors. Extending the analysis centered on the Grüneisen parameter by Rosch, Si, and co-workers to the cuprates, we demonstrate that a combination of specific-heat and chemical potential measurements can reveal the nature of the zero temperature singu...

Information theoretic geometry near critical points in classical and quantum systems is well understood for exactly solvable systems. Here, we show that renormalization group flow equations can be used to construct the information metric and its associated quantities near criticality for both classical and quantum systems in a universal manner. We study this metric in various cases and establis...

We consider analytically as well as numerically the finite-size scaling behavior in the stationary state near the nonequilibrium phase transition of directed percolation within the mean field regime, i.e., above the upper critical dimension. Analogous to equilibrium, usual finite-size scaling is valid below the upper critical dimension, whereas it fails above. Performing a momentum analysis of ...

introduction: periodontitis is an inflammatory periodontal disease that leads to tooth loss. recently laser has been introduced as an alternative treatment for periodontitis. the aim of the present study was to compare the effect of erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (er:yag) laser with ultrasonic scaler in patients with moderate chronic periodontitis. methods: in this randomized single-blind...

a method for predicting liquid densities of binary mixtures from heat of vaporization and liquid densityat boiling point temperature (δhvap and n b ρ ) as scaling constants, is presented. b2(t) follows a promisingcorresponding-states principle. calculation of α(t) and b(t), the two other temperature-dependentconstants of the equation of state, are made possible by scaling. as a result δhvap and...

Anomalous transport in tilted periodic potentials is investigated within the framework of the fractional Fokker-Planck dynamics and the underlying continuous time random walk. The analytical solution for the stationary, anomalous current is obtained in closed form. We derive a universal scaling law for anomalous diffusion occurring in tilted periodic potentials. This scaling relation is corrobo...

We consider a harmonic chain perturbed by an energy conserving noise depending on a parameter γ . When γ is of order one, the energy diffuses according to the standard heat equation after a space-time diffusive scaling. On the other hand, when γ = 0, the energy superdiffuses according to a 3/4 fractional heat equation after a subdiffusive space-time scaling. In this paper, we study the existenc...

| With this paper Modal Mutation Schemes for Evolutionary Algorithms as a generalization of the Breeder Genetic Algorithm mutation scheme are introduced and analyzed for multimodal continuous parameter optimization problems. A new scaling rule for multiple mutations is formalized and compared with a new step-size scaling for Evolution Strategies. A performance comparison of the Multivalued Evol...

The breakup of the shearless invariant torus with winding number ω = √ 2 − 1 is studied numerically using Greene’s residue criterion in the standard nontwist map. The residue behavior and parameter scaling at the breakup suggests the existence of a new fixed point of the renormalization group operator (RGO) for area-preserving maps. The unstable eigenvalues of the RGO at this fixed point and th...
