Aging and fluctuation-dissipation ratio in a nonequilibrium qq-state lattice model

A generalized version of the nonequilibrium linear Glauber model with $q$ states in $d$ dimensions is introduced and analyzed. The model is fully symmetric, its dynamics being invariant under all permutations of the $q$ states. Exact expressions for the two-time autocorrelation and response functions on a $d$-dimensional lattice are obtained. In the stationary regime, the fluctuation-dissipation theorem holds, while in the transient the aging is observed with the fluctuation-dissipation ratio leading to the value predicted for the linear Glauber model
