Majority-vote on directed Small-World networks
On directed Small-World networks the
Majority-vote model with noise is now studied through Monte Carlo
simulations. In this model, the order-disorder phase transition of the order
parameter is well defined in this system. We calculate the value of the
critical noise parameter q_c for several values of rewiring probability p of
the directed Small-World network. The critical exponentes beta/nu, gamma/nu and
1/nu were calculated for several values of p.Comment: 16 pages including 9 figures, for Int. J. Mod. Phys.
Critical behavior of the spin-3/2 Blume-Capel model on a random two-dimensional lattice
We investigate the critical properties of the spin-3/2 Blume-Capel model in
two dimensions on a random lattice with quenched connectivity disorder. The
disordered system is simulated by applying the cluster hybrid Monte Carlo
update algorithm and re-weighting techniques. We calculate the critical
temperature as well as the critical point exponents , ,
, and . We find that, contrary of what happens to the spin-1/2
case, this random system does not belong to the same universality class as the
regular two-dimensional ferromagnetic model.Comment: 5 pages and 5 figure
