Critical branching Brownian motion with absorption: particle configurations
We consider critical branching Brownian motion with absorption, in which there is initially a single particle at $x > 0$, particles move according to independent... -

Signaux de transitions de phase des systèmes finis
Phase transitions are universal properties of interacting matter. They are well described if the considered system in infinite, by using standard thermodynamics. But... -
Dense Vibrated Granular Media: From Stuck Liquids to Soft Solids
At large packing fraction, disordered packings of particles with repulsive contact interactions jam into a rigid state where they withstand finite shear stresses... -
Well-Approximable Points for Julia Sets with Parabolic and Critical Points
In this paper we consider rational functions $f\colon \oc \to \oc$ with parabolic and critical points contained in their Julia sets $J(f)$ such that $$... -
