In the past five to ten years mounting evidence has arisen indicating that the large-scale spatial number density of galaxies may be governed by fractal or multifractal statistics. In this paper we extend this idea by searching for multifractal behaviour in other density fields. Namely,...

We develop a new approach to the fractal analysis of time series of various natural, technological and social processes. To compute the fractal dimension, we introduce the sequence of the minimal covers associated with a decreasing scale δ. This results in new fractal characteristics: the...

We present a stochastic model of gait rhythm dynamics, based on transitions between different “neural centers”, that reproduces distinctive statistical properties of normal human walking. By tuning one model parameter, the transition (hopping) range, the model can describe alterations in...

Scaling behavior of the temporal variability in self-potential data recorded in the frequency range 0<f<0.125Hz during … scaling in nonstationary time series, deviations from stable power-law scaling were quantified. Our findings point to an … evident unstable scaling behavior in self-potential data before the occurrence of the seismic event. These first results could …
