Abstract
We introduce and study a dynamic transport model exhibiting Self-Organ ized Criticality. The novel concepts of our model are the probabilisti c propagation of activity and unbiased random repartition of energy am ong the active site and its nearest neighbors. For space dimensionalit y d greater than or equal to 2 we argue that the model is related to ( d + 1)-dimensional directed percolation, with time interpreted as the preferred direction.
