Correlations and critical behavior of the q model.
2011
The q-model is a random walk model used to describe the flow of stress in a stationary granular medium. Here we derive the exact horizontal and vertical correlation functions for the q-model in two dimensions. We show that close to a critical point identified in earlier work these correlation functions have a universal scaling form reminiscent of thermodynamic critical phenomena. We determine the form of the universal scaling function and the associated critical exponents $\nu$ and $z$.
