Dynamical phase transition of a one-dimensional kinetic Ising model with boundaries
Mohammad Khorrami, Amir Aghamohammadi
Abstract
The Glauber model on a one-dimensional lattice with boundaries (for the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic cases) is considered. The large-time behavior of the one-point function is studied. It is shown that at any temperature, the system shows a dynamical phase transition. The dynamical phase transition is controlled by the rate of spin flip at the boundaries, and is a discontinuous change of the derivative of the relaxation time towards the stationary configuration.
