Determination of the critical exponents for absorbing phase transitions in the conserved lattice gas model in three dimensions

Abstract

The critical exponents were measured for absorbing phase transitions in the conserved lattice gas (CLG) model on a simple cubic lattice. The correlation-length exponent calculated from the dynamic exponent obtained by finite-size scaling and from the mean spreading distance was consistently found to be ν(⊥)=0.631±0.02, which yields a positive specific heat exponent α=2-dν(⊥) on a pure system. The pure fixed point should, thus, be unstable if the Harris criterion established in equilibrium systems is applicable to the nonequilibrium absorbing phase transitions of the CLG model. However, this prediction is in contradiction with recent simulation results.

Influence of quenched disorder on absorbing phase transitions in the conserved lattice gas model

Sang Bub Lee

Motivated by the Harris criterion, the absorbing phase transitions of the conserved lattice gas (CLG) model were studied on lattices with a quenched disorder, i.e., on infinite percolation networks, in two and three dimensions. The Harris criterion suggests that, in a magnetic system, the pure fixed point will be unstable if the specific-heat exponent is positive. For the CLG model, the specific-heat exponent α calculated by the hyperscaling relation α=2-dν, where ν is the spatial correlation length exponent in d dimensions, will be positive in two dimensions if the value of ν obtained earlier by Lübeck and Heger is employed. On the other hand, it will be close to 0 if the more recent value by Lee and Lee is used and it is positive in three dimensions with the available value of ν. Extensive numerical simulations showed that, when the concentration of disordered sites is less than the critical concentration, the critical exponents were similar to those on a regular lattice both in two and three dimensions. When the concentration of disordered sites becomes critical, the density of active particles showed nonuniversal power-law behavior for all particle densities considered in both dimensions. These results were in contrast to the results for the diluted contact process. The cause of such a nonuniversal behavior was addressed.

Scaling behavior of the absorbing phase transition in a conserved lattice gas around the upper critical dimension

S. Lübeck

We analyze numerically the critical behavior of a conserved lattice gas that was recently introduced as an example of the new universality class of absorbing phase transitions with a conserved field [Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 1803 (2000)]. We determine the critical exponent of the order parameter as well as the critical exponent of the order parameter fluctuations in D=2,3,4,5 dimensions. A comparison of our results and those obtained from a mean-field approach and a field theory suggests that the upper critical dimension of the absorbing phase transition is four.

Critical behavior of absorbing phase transitions for models in the Manna class with natural initial states

Sang Bub Lee

The critical behavior of absorbing phase transitions for two typical models in the Manna universality class, the conserved Manna model and the conserved lattice gas model, both on a square lattice, was investigated using the natural initial states. Various critical exponents were estimated using the static and dynamic simulations. The exponents characterizing dynamics of active particles differ considerably from the known exponents obtained using the random initial states, whereas those associated with the steady-state quantities remain the same. The critical exponents for both models were consistent with errors of less than 1% and satisfied the known scaling relations; thus, the known violation of scaling relations for models with a conserved field was resolved using the natural initial states. The results differed by 7%∼12% from the directed percolation values.

Initial-state dependence of the critical behavior in the conserved lattice gas model in one dimension

Sang Bub Lee

The conserved lattice gas model in one dimension, generated from various initial states, was intensively studied. The dynamic critical exponents α and ν ║ associated with the decay of activeparticle densities and the correlation time, respectively, were found to depend drastically on the initial states. The perfectly-ordered initial state prepared by repeatedly placing the block ‘0011’ yielded a standard critical behavior, with the critical exponents satisfying all the scaling relations. On the other hand, the natural initial states and the ordered initial states of blocks of odd numbers of particles yielded an exponent α slightly larger than that of an ordered state of ‘0011’, but the data for active-particle densities did not satisfy scaling function. The exponents α and ν ║ were also calculated from, respectively, the autocorrelation function and the persistence distribution of the active-particle densities, both in the steady states. The value of α was found to be close to the value for an ordered state of ‘0011’ whereas the value of ν ║ was consistent with that for the random initial states.

Absence of absorbing phase transitions in a conserved lattice-gas model in one dimension

Sungchul Kwon, J. M. Kim

A one-dimensional conserved lattice-gas model is known to undergo continuous absorbing phase transitions where some of the critical exponents are exactly known. In one dimension, we recently showed that the model is mapped onto a two species reaction A+B→0 with diffusion rate of D_{A}>0 and D_{B}=0. In this work, it is explicitly shown from the scaling theory for A+B→0 that the observed scaling behavior of the conserved lattice-gas model is not associated with the absorbing phase transitions. Instead, the model indeed undergoes a crossover between two different scaling behaviors of A+B→0, the scaling behaviors of equal and unequal initial densities of two species. The crossover is similar to the absorbing transitions in many respects but some important features of continuous transitions such as the diverging fluctuations of an order parameter are absent.

11 Universal Amplitude Ratios in the Ising Model in Three Dimensions

A. Gordillo-Guerrero, Ralph Kenna B, Juan Jesus Ruiz-Lorenzo +1 more

We use a high-precision Monte Carlo simulation to determine the universal specific-heat amplitude ratio A + /A − in the three-dimensional Ising model via the impact angle phgr of complex temperature zeros. We also measure the correlation-length critical exponent ν from finite-size scaling and the specific-heat exponent α through hyperscaling. Extrapolations to the thermodynamic limit yield phgr = 59.2(1.0)°, A + /A − = 0.56(3), ν = 0.630 48(32) and α = 0.1086(10). These results are compatible with some previous estimates from a variety of sources and rule out recently conjectured exact values.
