Recent advances in percolation theory and its applications

TL;DR: In this paper, a variety of percolation models have been introduced some of which have completely different scaling and universal properties from the original model with either continuous or discontinuous transitions depending on the control parameter, dimensionality and the type of the underlying rules and networks.

Recent advances in percolation theory and its applications

TL;DR: The basic features of the ordinary model are outlined and a glimpse at a number of selective variations and modifications of the original model are taken and a connection with the magnetic models is established.

SLE and the free field: partition functions and couplings

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the relationship between the Schramm-Loewner evolution and the free field in planar simply connected domains and established identities of partition functions between different versions of the evolution with appropriate boundary conditions, including the Polyakov-Alvarez conformal anomaly formula.

Diffusion-limited aggregation, a kinetic critical phenomenon

Abstract: A model for random aggregates is studied by computer simulation The model is applicable to a metal-particle aggregation process whose correlations have been measured previously Density correlations within the model aggregates fall off with distance with a fractional power law, like those of the metal aggregates The radius of gyration of the model aggregates has power-law behavior The model is a limit of a model of dendritic growth
