A number of results for reactions involving subdiffusive species, all with the same anomalous exponent , have recently appeared in the literature and can often be understood in terms of a subordination principle whereby time in ordinary diffusion is replaced by tgamma. However, very few results are known for reactions involving different species characterized by different anomalous diffusion ex...

We show that if G is any p-group of class at most two and exponent p, then there exist groups G1 and G2 of class two and exponent p that contain G, neither of which can be expressed as a central product, and with G1 capable and G2 not capable. We provide upper bounds for rank(Gi ) in terms of rank(G) in each case.

We obtained the global persistence exponent for a continuous spin model on the simple cubic lattice with double-exchange interaction by using two different methods. First, we estimated the exponent theta(g) by following the time evolution of probability P(t) that the order parameter of the model does not change its sign up to time t[P(t) approximately t(-theta(g)]. Afterwards, that exponent was...

This paper deals with the number of subgroups of a given exponent in a finite abelian group. Explicit formulas are obtained in the case of rank two and rank three abelian groups. An asymptotic formula is also presented.

Finite-time Lyapunov exponents of generic chaotic dynamical systems fluctuate in time. These fluctuations are due to the different degree of stability across the accessible phase space. A recent numerical study of spatially extended systems has revealed that the diffusion coefficient D of the Lyapunov exponents (LEs) exhibits a nontrivial scaling behavior, D(L)~L(-γ), with the system size L. He...

Recent studies of correlations of intensity in databases of natural images revealed a remarkable property. The two point correlations are described in terms of power law behavior, with an exponent which seems to be robust. In the present Letter we consider the statistical meaning of that result. We study many individual images of one of the databases considered. We find that the same law charac...
