Generic finite size scaling for discontinuous nonequilibrium phase transitions into absorbing states

Abstract: Based on quasistationary distribution ideas, a general finite size scaling theory is proposed for discontinuous nonequilibrium phase transitions into absorbing states. Analogously to the equilibrium case, we show that quantities such as response functions, cumulants, and equal area probability distributions all scale with the volume, thus allowing proper estimates for the thermodynamic limit. To illustrate these results, five very distinct lattice models displaying nonequilibrium transitions-to single and infi… Show more

“…To obtain stronger evidence for our view mentioned in this work and deeper insight into the phenomena, further experiments, such as exploring direct visualization of the vortex configuration [52,59], as well as theoretical investigation, may be needed. We believe that the present study will stimulate similar experiments and analysis in other systems where the dynamic ordering and disordering would be observed [10,16,41,48,[60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75].…”

“…Although the critical exponents for DP phase transitions are well known, no established scaling behavior is known for the discontinuous case. As it will be shown, our methodology clearly distinguishes continuous from discontinuous transitions, reinforcing previous claims about the existence of a common finite-size scaling for the latter case [18,20,21]. This paper is organized as follows: In Sec.…”

“…For equilibrium systems, the maximum of χ and other quantities scale with the system volume and its position α L obeys the asymptotic relation α L = α 0 − c/L 2 [24,25], being α 0 the transition point in the thermodynamic limit and c a constant. Recent papers [18,26,20,21] have shown that similar scaling is verified for nonequilibrium phase transitions. Alternatively, the transition point can also be estimated as the value of α L in which the two peaks of the probability distribution have equal weights (area) [26,21].…”

“…Another feature distinguishing them relies that the continuous case presents an algebraic divergence of its order parameter variance χ = N [ m 2 − m 2 ] at the critical point f c [34]. (In simulations of finite systems, we observe a maximum that increases with the system size N ).…”
