Tricritical directed percolation
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider a modification of the contact process incorporating higher-order reaction terms. The original contact process exhibits a non-equilibrium phase transition belonging to the universality class of directed percolation. The incorporated higher-order reaction terms lead to a non-trivial phase diagram. In particular, a line of continuous phase transitions is separated by a tricritical point from a line of discontinuous phase transitions. The corresponding tricritical scaling behavior is analyzed in detail, i.e., we determine the critical exponents, various universal scaling functions as well as universal amplitude combinations.

Tricritical point in explosive percolation.
The suitable interpolation between classical percolation and a special variant of explosive percolation enables the explicit realization of a tricritical percolation point. With high-precision simulations of the order parameter and the second moment of the cluster size distribution a fully consistent tricritical scaling scenario emerges yielding the tricritical crossover exponent 1/φ(t)=1.8 ± 0.1.
متن کاملMessage passing theory for percolation models on multiplex networks with link overlap.
Multiplex networks describe a large variety of complex systems, including infrastructures, transportation networks, and biological systems. Most of these networks feature a significant link overlap. It is therefore of particular importance to characterize the mutually connected giant component in these networks. Here we provide a message passing theory for characterizing the percolation transit...
متن کاملAdsorbing and Collapsing Directed Animals
A model of a self-interacting directed animal, which also interacts with a solid wall, is studied as a model of a directed branched polymer which can undergo both a collapse and an adsorption transition. The directed animal is confined to a 45° wedge, and it interacts with one of the walls of this wedge. The existence of a thermodynamic limit in this model shown, and the presence of an adsorpti...
متن کاملA Generalized Epidemic Process and Tricritical Dynamic Percolation
The renowned general epidemic process describes the stochastic evolution of a population of individuals which are either susceptible, infected or dead. A second order phase transition belonging to the universality class of dynamic isotropic percolation lies between endemic or pandemic behavior of the process. We generalize the general epidemic process by introducing a fourth kind of individuals...
متن کاملRevisiting the nonequilibrium phase transition of the triplet-creation model
The nonequilibrium phase transition in the triplet-creation model is investigated using critical spreading and the conservative diffusive contact process. The results support the claim that at high enough diffusion the phase transition becomes discontinuous. As the diffusion probability increases the critical exponents change continuously from the ordinary directed percolation (DP) class to the...
