a Productivity law giving the mean number N of triggered events for a trigger of magnitude mw. The best power-law fit in \(N \sim 1{0}^{0.24{m}_{w}}\) obtained when discarding the last point (biggest events) is shown in magenta. b Triggering kernels in time, conditioned on the moment of the trigger. We consider the same 8 “classes” of seismic moments as in (a). Power law decays in tp, with p = 1 and p = 2, are shown for visual guidance. c Correlation in time, as in Fig. 4b, for two instances of synthetic datasets and for the real dataset.
