Ml. Martins et al., THE DOMANY-KINZEL CELLULAR-AUTOMATON - RELAXATION-TIME, SUSCEPTIBILITY AND CONSTRAINED DYNAMICS, Journal of physics. A, mathematical and general, 27(1), 1994, pp. 1-8
We use Monte Carlo simulation to study new features of the (one-dimens
ional) Domany-Kinzel cellular automaton (CA). Considering the relaxati
on process of the 'magnetization' (the frozen-active order parameter)
towards its equilibrium value, we measure its dynamical critical expon
ent z. Also, we investigate the effect of p0 not-equal 0 (non-vanishin
g external field conjugate to the magnetization) on the phase diagram
and on the susceptibility. Finally, we introduce constraints in the ev
olution rule of the Domany-KinZel CA and study the associated critical
ity (critical surfaces and universality classes).
