Sandpile Applet Description

The Abelian Sandpile Model (ASM) was created by Dhar in 1990. It is a generalization of the sandpile model proposed by Bak-Tang-Wiesenfeld (1987) as an a example of self-organized criticality, having especially nice mathematical properties. The ASM is connected to a wide range of mathematics: markov processes and statistical mechanics, combinatorics (tilings, the Tutte polynomial, parking functions, the matrix-tree theorem), algebraic geometry (lattice ideals), graph analogues to Riemann surfaces, and tropical geometry. Sandpile Applet can demonstrate the evolution of sand columns continously or one step at a time.
