چکیده

We investigate the asymptotic properties of two reaction–diffusion systems. The first is an annihilation/scattering system with the reactions 2A → ∅, 2A → 2B, 2B → 2A, and 2B → ∅. The second one consists of competing annihilation and fission processes, 2A → ∅ and 2A → (n+2)A. We find that both these diffusion–limited reaction systems belong to the same universality class as the single species annihilation 2A → ∅. We discuss the implications of our analysis for a recent study of an active/absorbing transition in a system with multiplicative noise. PACS Numbers: 02.50. -r, 05.40. +j, 82.20. -w.

8 S ep 2 00 3 Universality classes in nonequilibrium lattice systems ∗

This work is designed to overview our present knowledge about universality classes occurring in nonequilibrium systems defined on regular lattices. In the first section I summarize the most important critical exponents, relations and the field theoretical formalism used in the text. In the second section I briefly address the question of scaling behavior at first order phase transitions. In sec...

Laplacian growth and diffusion limited aggregation: different universality classes.

It had been conjectured that diffusion limited aggregates and Laplacian growth patterns (with small surface tension) are in the same universality class. Using iterated conformal maps we construct a one-parameter family of fractal growth patterns with a continuously varying fractal dimension. This family can be used to bound the dimension of Laplacian growth patterns from below. The bound value ...

A numerical treatment of a reaction-diffusion model of spatial pattern in the embryo

In this work the mathematical model of a spatial pattern in chemical and biological systems is investigated numerically. The proposed model considered as a nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation. A computational approach based on finite difference and RBF-collocation methods is conducted to solve the equation with respect to the appropriate initial and boundary conditions. The ability and robust...

Almost sure exponential stability of stochastic reaction diffusion systems with Markovian jump

The stochastic reaction diffusion systems may suffer sudden shocks‎, ‎in order to explain this phenomena‎, ‎we use Markovian jumps to model stochastic reaction diffusion systems‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we are interested in almost sure exponential stability of stochastic reaction diffusion systems with Markovian jumps‎. ‎Under some reasonable conditions‎, ‎we show that the trivial solution of stocha...

TIFR Annual Report 2001-02 THEORETICAL PHYSICS Condensed Matter and Statistical Physics

A important open question in this field has been the question of classification of different universality classes of sandpile models. Since the avalanche activity in sandpile models can grow, diffuse and die, they fall the general class of reaction diffusion systems. It is expected to fall in the universality class of active-inactive transition with many absorbing states. It was shown that the ...
