The Directed Polymer — Directed Percolation Transition
We study the relation between the directed polymer and the directed percolation models, for the case of a disordered energy landscape where the energies are taken from bimodal distribution. We find that at the critical concentration of the directed percolation, the directed polymer undergoes a transition from the directed polymer universality class to the directed percolation universality class...
متن کاملDirected polymers versus directed percolation
Universality plays a central role within the rubric of modern statistical mechanics, wherein an insightful continuum formulation rises above irrelevant microscopic details, capturing essential scaling behaviors. Nevertheless, occasions do arise where the lattice or another discrete aspect can constitute a formidable legacy. Directed polymers in random media, along with its close sibling, direct...
متن کاملThe Percolation Phase Transition
If a system consists of a very small number of particles, we can attempt to predict its properties in complete detail using classical or quantum mechanics. If the system consists of a very large number of particles, we may only be able to predict average properties of the system in an approximate way. Statistical mechanics provides a formalism for predicting the average properties of systems, e...
متن کاملBackbends in directed percolation
When directed percolation in a bond percolation process does not occur, any path to innnity on the open bonds will zigzag back and forth through the lattice. Backbends are the portions of the zigzags that go against the percolation direction. They are important in the physical problem of particle transport in random media in the presence of a eld, as they act to limit particle ow through the me...
متن کاملTricritical directed percolation
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 poin...
