Criticality in Two-Variable Earthquake Model on a Random Graph

A two-variable earthquake model on a quenched random graph is established here.It can be seen as a generalization of the OFC models.We numerically study the critical behavior of the model when the system is nonconservative:the result indicates that the model exhibits self-organized criticality deep within the nonconservative regime.The probability distribution for avalanche size obeys finite size scaling.We compare our model with the model introduced by Stefano Lise and Maya Paczuski [Phys.Rev.Lett.88 (2002) 228301],it is proved that they are not in the same universality class.
