چکیده

Using Monte Carlo simulations we have studied the transition from an “active” steady state to an absorbing “inactive” state for two versions of the branching annihilating random walks with parity conservation on a square lattice. In the first model the randomly walking particles annihilate when they meet and the branching process creates two additional particles; in the second case we distinguish particles and antiparticles created and annihilated in pairs. Quite distinct critical behavior is found in the two cases, raising the question of what determines universality in this kind of systems. 64.60.Ak, 05.40.+j, 02.50.-r Typeset using REVTEX

Universality Class of Two-Offspring Branching Annihilating Random Walks

We analyze a two-offspring Branching Annihilating Random Walk (n = 2 BAW) model, with finite annihilation rate. The finite annihilation rate allows for a dynamical phase transition between a vacuum, absorbing state and a non-empty, active steady state. We find numerically that this transition belongs to the same universality class as BAW’s with an even number of offspring, n ≥ 4, and that of ot...

Propagation and extinction in branching annihilating random walks.

We investigate the temporal evolution and spatial propagation of branching annihilating random walks in one dimension. Depending on the branching and annihilation rates, a few-particle initial state can evolve to a propagating finite density wave, or extinction may occur, in which the number of particles vanishes in the long-time limit. The number parity conserving case where 2-offspring are pr...

Dependent double branching annihilating random walk

Double (or parity conserving) branching annihilating random walk, introduced in [19], is a one-dimensional non-attractive particle system in which positive and negative particles perform nearest neighbor hopping, produce two offsprings to neighboring lattice points and annihilate when they meet. Given an odd number of initial particles, positive recurrence as seen from the leftmost particle pos...

On Survival and Extinction of Caring Double-branching Annihilating Random Walk

Branching annihilating random walk (BARW) is a generic term for a class of interacting particle systems on Z in which, as time evolves, particles execute random walks, produce offspring (on neighbouring sites) and (instantaneously) disappear when they meet other particles. Much of the interest in such models stems from the fact that they typically lack a monotonicity property called attractiven...
