چکیده

In this work we prove a shape theorem for a growing set of Simple Random Walks (SRWs) on Z d , known as frog model. The dynamics of this process is described as follows: There are active particles, which perform independent SRWs, and sleeping particles, which do not move. When a sleeping particle is hit by an active particle, it becomes active too. At time 0 all particles are sleeping, except for that placed at the origin. We prove that the set of the original positions of all the active particles, rescaled by the elapsed time, converges to some compact convex set. In some specific cases we are able to identify (at least partially) this set.

Study of Solar Magnetic and Gravitational Energies Through the Virial Theorem

Virial theorem is important for understanding stellar structures. It produces an interesting connection between magnetic and gravitational energies. Using the general form of the virial theorem including the magnetic field (toroidal magnetic field), we may explain the solar dynamo model in relation to variations of the magnetic and gravitational energies. We emphasize the role of the gravitatio...

The shape theorem for the frog model with random initial configuration

We prove a shape theorem for a growing set of simple random walks on Z d , known as frog model. The dynamics of this process is described as follows: There are active particles, which perform independent discrete time SRWs, and sleeping particles, which do not move. When a sleeping particle is hit by an active particle, the former becomes active as well. Initially, a random number of particles ...
