One of the most accepted framework on the relation between magnitude and frequency of the earthquakes, is that of the critical phenomena. In this framework magnitude of events must be distributed following a power law. However the Gutenberg-Richter law clearly show a deviation at lows magnitude from the power law called roll-off. How can the roll-off deviation of the GR prediction be explained?
