Within this crossover time, the averaged driving function ⟨U_{t} ⟩ shows a scaling behavior −(p_{c} −p)t^{(ν+1)/2ν} with a superdiffusive fluctuation whereas, beyond the crossover time, the driving function U_{t} undergoes a normal diffusion with Hurst exponent 1/2 but with the drift velocity proportional to (p_{c} −p)^{ν} , where ν=4/3 is the critical exponent for two-dimensional percolation correlation length.

Vaupotič, J. Szydlowska, M. Salamonczyk, A. Kovarova, J. Svoboda, M. Osipov, D. Pociecha, and E. Gorecka<br/>In recent years there are several reports showing that bent-core mesogenic molecules are able to form biaxial nematic phase in which molecular rotation around the long molecular axis is strongly hindered. The x-ray pattern with azimuthally split signals at low angle region of diffraction is usually ...<br/><img src="http://prola.aps.org/graphics/rapid30x30.gif" width="30" height="30" alt="Rapid Communication"/><br/>[Phys.

Matthew Smith and Lev Kaplan<br/>We discuss a modification to random matrix theory (RMT) eigenstate statistics that systematically takes into account the nonuniversal short-time behavior of chaotic systems. The method avoids diagonalization of the Hamiltonian, instead requiring only knowledge of short-time dynamics for a chaotic sy...<br/><img src="http://prola.aps.org/graphics/rapid30x30.gif" width="30" height="30" alt="Rapid Communication"/><br/>[Phys.
