We study the decay process for the reaction-diffusion process of three species on the small-world network. The decay process is manipulated from the deterministic rate equation of three species in the reaction-diffusion system. The particle density and the global reaction rate on a two dimensional small-world network adding new random links is discussed numerically, and the global reaction rate before and after the crossover is also found by means of the Monte Carlo simulation. The time-dependent global reaction rate scales as a power law with the scaling exponent 0.66 at early time regime while it scales with -0.50 at long time regime, in all four cases of the added probability $p=0.2-0.8$. Especially, our result presented is compared with the numerical calculation of regular networks.
We propose the deterministic rate equation of three-species in the reaction - diffusion system. For this case, our purpose is to carry out the decay process in our three-species reaction-diffusion model of the form $A+B+Cto D$. The particle density and the global reaction rate are also shown analytically and numerically on a two-dimensional square lattice with the periodic boundary conditions. Especially, the crossover of the global reaction rate is discussed in both early-time and long-time regimes.
In this paper we analyze the effect of a non-trivial topology on the dynamics of the so-called Naming Game, a recently introduced model which addresses the issue of how shared conventions emerge spontaneously in a population of agents. We consider in particular the small-world topology and study the convergence towards the global agreement as a function of the population size $N$ as well as of the parameter $p$ which sets the rate of rewiring leading to the small-world network. As long as $p gg 1/N$ there exists a crossover time scaling as $N/p^2$ which separates an early one-dimensional-like dynamics from a late stage mean-field-like behavior. At the beginning of the process, the local quasi one-dimensional topology induces a coarsening dynamics which allows for a minimization of the cognitive effort (memory) required to the agents. In the late stages, on the other hand, the mean-field like topology leads to a speed up of the convergence process with respect to the one-dimensional case.
We investigate the multifractals of the normalized first passage time on one-dimensional small-world network with both reflecting and absorbing barriers. The multifractals is estimated from the distribution of the normalized first passage time charactrized by the random walk on the small-world network with three fractions of edges rewired randomly. Particularly, our estimate is the fractal dimension D_0 = 0.917, 0.926, 0.930 for lattice points L = 80 and a randomly rewired fraction p = 0.2. The numerical result is found to disappear multifractal properties in the regime p> p_c, where p_c is the critical rewired fraction.
Dynamical reaction-diffusion processes and meta-population models are standard modeling approaches for a wide variety of phenomena in which local quantities - such as density, potential and particles - diffuse and interact according to the physical laws. Here, we study the behavior of two basic reaction-diffusion processes ($B to A$ and $A+B to 2B$) defined on networks with heterogeneous topology and no limit on the nodes occupation number. We investigate the effect of network topology on the basic properties of the systems phase diagram and find that the network heterogeneity sustains the reaction activity even in the limit of a vanishing density of particles, eventually suppressing the critical point in density driven phase transitions, whereas phase transition and critical points, independent of the particle density, are not altered by topological fluctuations. This work lays out a theoretical and computational microscopic framework for the study of a wide range of realistic meta-populations models and agent-based models that include the complex features of real world networks.
For reaction-diffusion processes with at most bimolecular reactants, we derive well-behaved, numerically tractable, exact Langevin equations that govern a stochastic variable related to the response field in field theory. Using duality relations, we show how the particle number and other quantities of interest can be computed. Our work clarifies long-standing conceptual issues encountered in field-theoretical approaches and paves the way for systematic numerical and theoretical analyses of reaction-diffusion problems.
