We study a nonequilibrium model with up–down symmetry and a noise parameter q known as majority-vote model (MVM) of Oliveira 1992 on opinion-dependent network or Stauffer–Hohnisch–Pittnauer (SHP) networks. By Monte Carlo (MC) simulations and finite-size scaling relations the critical exponents β∕ν, γ∕ν and 1∕ν and points qc and U* are obtained. After extensive simulations, we obtain β∕ν = 0.230(3), γ∕ν = 0.535(2) and 1∕ν = 0.475(8). The calculated values of the critical noise parameter and Binder cumulant are qc = 0.166(3) and U* = 0.288(3). Within the error bars, the exponents obey the relation 2β∕ν + γ∕ν = 1 and the results presented here demonstrate that the MVM belongs to a different universality class than the equilibrium Ising model on SHP networks, but to the same class as majority-vote models on some other networks.

We study a nonequilibrium model with up-down symmetry and a noise parameter q known as majority-vote model (MVM) of [M. J. Oliveira, J. Stat. Phys.66, 273 (1992)] with heterogeneous agents on square lattice (SL). By Monte Carlo (MC) simulations and finite-size scaling relations, the critical exponents β∕ν, γ∕ν and 1∕ν and points qc and U* are obtained. After extensive simulations, we obtain β∕ν = 0.35(1), γ∕ν = 1.23(8) and 1∕ν = 1.05(5). The calculated values of the critical noise parameter and Binder cumulant are qc = 0.1589(4) and U* = 0.604(7). Within the error bars, the exponents obey the relation 2β∕ν + γ∕ν = 2 and the results presented here demonstrate that the MVM heterogeneous agents belongs to a different universality class than the nonequilibrium MVM with homogeneous agents on SL.

AbstractOn (4, 6, 12) and (4, 82) Archimedean lattices, the critical properties of the majority-vote model are considered and studied using the Glauber transition rate proposed by Kwak et al. [Kwak et al., Phys. Rev. E, 75, 061110 (2007)] rather than the traditional majority-vote with noise [Oliveira, J. Stat. Phys. 66, 273 (1992)]. We obtain T c and the critical exponents for this Glauber rate from extensive Monte Carlo studies and finite size scaling. The calculated values of the critical temperatures and Binder cumulant are T c = 0.651(3) and U 4* = 0.612(5), and T c = 0.667(2) and U 4* = 0.613(5), for (4, 6, 12) and (4, 82) lattices respectively, while the exponent (ratios) β/ν, γ/ν and 1/ν are respectively: 0.105(8), 1.48(11) and 1.16(5) for (4, 6, 12); and 0.113(2), 1.60(4) and 0.84(6) for (4, 82) lattices. The usual Ising model and the majority-vote model on previously studied regular lattices or complex networks differ from our new results.

We present a novel anisotropic Heisenberg model in which the classical spin is restricted to a region of the unit sphere which depends on the value of the anisotropy parameter Δ. In the limit Δ→1, we recover the Ising model, and in the limit Δ→0, the isotopic Heisenberg model. Monte Carlo calculations are used to compare the critical temperature as a function of the anisotropy parameter for the restricted and unrestricted models, and finite-size scaling analysis leads to the conclusion that for all Δ>0 the model belongs to the Ising universality class. For small A the critical behavior is clearly seen in histograms of the transverse and longitudinal (z) components of the magnetization.

The four-dimensional Ising model is simulated on the Creutz cellular automaton by using three- and four-bit demons. The simulations result in overlapping curves for both the order parameter, the magnetic susceptibility, the internal energy and the Binder cumulant. However, the specific heat curves overlap above and at Tc as the number of energy levels of a demon or the number of bits increases, but below Tc they are strongly violated. The critical exponents for the order parameter and the magnetic susceptibility as the number of bits increases are obtained by analyzing the data according to the finite-size scaling relations available.

Kinetic models of discrete opinion dynamics are studied on directed Barabási–Albert networks by using extensive Monte Carlo simulations. A continuous phase transition has been found in this system. The critical values of the noise parameter are obtained for several values of the connectivity of these directed networks. In addition, the ratio of the critical exponents of the order parameter and the corresponding susceptibility to the correlation length have also been computed. It is noticed that the kinetic model and the majority-vote model on these directed Barabási–Albert networks are in the same universality class.

We investigate the critical properties of the equilibrium and nonequilibrium two-dimensional (2D) systems on Solomon networks with both nearest and random neighbors. The equilibrium and nonequilibrium 2D systems studied here by Monte Carlo simulations are the Ising and Majority-vote 2D models, respectively. We calculate the critical points as well as the critical exponent ratios [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text]. We find that numerically both systems present the same exponents on Solomon networks (2D) and are of different universality class than the regular 2D ferromagnetic model. Our results are in agreement with the Grinstein criterion for models with up and down symmetry on regular lattices.
