Continuity of the Explosive Percolation Transition

The explosive percolation problem on the complete graph is investigated via extensive numerical simulations. We obtain the cluster-size distribution at the moment when the cluster size heterogeneity becomes maximum. The distribution is found to be well described by the power-law form with the decay exponent $τ= 2.06(2)$, followed by a hump. We then use the finite-size scaling method to make all the distributions at various system sizes up to $N=2^{37}$ collapse perfectly onto a scaling curve characterized solely by the single exponent $τ$. We also observe that the instant of that collapse converges to a well-defined percolation threshold from below as $N\rightarrow\infty$. Based on these observations, we show that the explosive percolation transition in the model should be continuous, contrary to the widely-spread belief of its discontinuity.

Scaling of cluster heterogeneity in percolation transitions

We investigate a critical scaling law for the cluster heterogeneity $H$ in site and bond percolations in $d$-dimensional lattices with $d=2,...,6$. The cluster heterogeneity is defined as the number of distinct cluster sizes. As an occupation probability $p$ increases, the cluster size distribution evolves from a monodisperse distribution to a polydisperse one in the subcritical phase, and back to a monodisperse one in the supercritical phase. We show analytically that $H$ diverges algebraically approaching the percolation critical point $p_c$ as $H\sim |p-p_c|^{-1/σ}$ with the critical exponent $σ$ associated with the characteristic cluster size. Interestingly, its finite-size-scaling behavior is governed by a new exponent $ν_H = (1+d_f/d)ν$ where $d_f$ is the fractal dimension of the critical percolating cluster and $ν$ is the correlation length exponent. The corresponding scaling variable defines a singular path to the critical point. All results are confirmed by numerical simulations.

Collective Helping and Bystander Effects in Coevolving Helping Networks

We study collective helping behavior and bystander effects in a coevolving helping network model. A node and a link of the network represents an agent who renders or receives help and a friendly relation between agents, respectively. A helping trial of an agent depends on relations with other involved agents and its result (success or failure) updates the relation between the helper and the recipient. We study the network link dynamics and its steady states analytically and numerically. The full phase diagram is presented with various kinds of active and inactive phases and the nature of phase transitions are explored. We find various interesting bystander effects, consistent with the field study results, of which the underlying mechanism is proposed.

Mechanical restriction versus human overreaction triggering congested traffic states

A new cellular automaton (CA) traffic model is presented. The focus is on mechanical restrictions of vehicles realized by limited acceleration and deceleration capabilities. These features are incorporated into the model in order to construct the condition of collision-free movement. The strict collision-free criterion imposed by the mechanical restrictions is softened in certain traffic situations, reflecting human overreaction. It is shown that the present model reliably reproduces most empirical findings including synchronized flow, the so-called {\it pinch effect}, and the time-headway distribution of free flow. The findings suggest that many free flow phenomena can be attributed to the platoon formation of vehicles ({\it platoon effect})
