A quantitative evaluation of the influence of sampling on the numerical fractal analysis of experimental profiles is of critical importance. Although this aspect has been widely recognized, a systematic analysis of the sampling influence is still lacking. Here we present the results of a systematic analysis of synthetic self-affine profiles in order to clarify the consequences of the application of a poor sampling (up to 1000 points) typical of Scanning Probe Microscopy for the characterization of real interfaces and surfaces. We interprete our results in term of a deviation and a dispersion of the measured exponent with respect to the ``true one. Both the deviation and the dispersion have always been disregarded in the experimental literature, and this can be very misleading if results obtained from poorly sampled images are presented. We provide reasonable arguments to assess the universality of these effects and we propose an empirical method to take them into account. We show that it is possible to correct the deviation of the measured Hurst exponent from the true one and give a reasonable estimate of the dispersion error. The last estimate is particularly important in the experimental results since it is an intrinsic error that depends only on the number of sampling points and can easily overwhelm the statistical error. Finally, we test our empirical method calculating the Hurst exponent for the well-known 1+1 dimensional directed percolation profiles, with a 512-point sampling.

We use the multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis (MF-DFA) to study the electrical discharge current fluctuations in plasma and show that it has multifractal properties and behaves as a weak anti-correlated process. Comparison of the MF-DFA resu
lts for the original series with those for the shuffled and surrogate series shows that correlation of the fluctuations is responsible for multifractal nature of the electrical discharge current.
The transverse-field Ising model on the Sierpinski fractal, which is characterized by the fractal dimension $log_2^{~} 3 approx 1.585$, is studied by a tensor-network method, the Higher-Order Tensor Renormalization Group. We analyze the ground-state
energy and the spontaneous magnetization in the thermodynamic limit. The system exhibits the second-order phase transition at the critical transverse field $h_{rm c}^{~} = 1.865$. The critical exponents $beta approx 0.198$ and $delta approx 8.7$ are obtained. Complementary to the tensor-network method, we make use of the real-space renormalization group and improved mean-field approximations for comparison.
The evolution and spatial structure of displacement fronts in fractures with self-affine rough walls are studied by numerical simulations. The fractures are open and the two faces are identical but shifted along their mean plane, either parallel or p
erpendicular to the flow. An initially flat front advected by the flow is progressively distorted into a self-affine front with Hurst exponent equal to that of the fracture walls. The lower cutoff of the self-affine regime depends on the aperture and lateral shift, while the upper cutoff grows linearly with the width of the front.
Many fluctuating systems consist of macroscopic structures in addition to noisy signals. Thus, for this class of fluctuating systems, the scaling behaviors are very complicated. Such phenomena are quite commonly observed in Nature, ranging from physi
cs, chemistry, geophysics, even to molecular biology and physiology. In this paper, we take an extensive analytical study on the ``generalized detrended fluctuation analysis method. For continuous fluctuating systems in arbitrary dimensions, we not only derive the explicit and exact expression of macroscopic structures, but also obtain the exact relations between the detrended variance functions and the correlation function. Besides, we undertake a general scaling analysis, applicable for this class of fluctuating systems in any dimensions. Finally, as an application, we discuss some important examples in interfacial superroughening phenomena.
Scaling properties in financial fluctuations are reviewed from the standpoint of statistical physics. We firstly show theoretically that the balance of demand and supply enhances fluctuations due to the underlying phase transition mechanism. By analy
zing tick data of yen-dollar exchange rates we confirm two fractal properties: 1 The distribution of rate change in a fixed ticks is approximated by a symmetric stretched exponential function for a wide range of time intervals; 2 the interval time distribution of trades nearly follows a power law. Empirical fractal properties in companies financial data, such as distributions and fluctuations in assets and incomes are discussed with a simple model. The importance of methods and theories for phase transitions is discussed.
