Majority-vote model with heterogeneous agents on square lattice

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study a nonequilibrium model with up-down symmetry and a noise parameter qq known as majority-vote model of M.J. Oliveira 1992 with heterogeneous agents on square lattice. By Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling relations the critical exponents β/νβ/ν, γ/νγ/ν, and 1/ν1/ν and points qcq_{c} and U∗U^* are obtained. After extensive simulations, we obtain β/ν=0.35(1)β/ν=0.35(1), γ/ν=1.23(8)γ/ν=1.23(8), and 1/ν=1.05(5)1/ν=1.05(5). The calculated values of the critical noise parameter and Binder cumulant are qc=0.1589(4)q_{c}=0.1589(4) and U∗=0.604(7)U^*=0.604(7). Within the error bars, the exponents obey the relation 2β/ν+γ/ν=22β/ν+γ/ν=2 and the results presented here demonstrate that the majority-vote model heterogeneous agents belongs to a different universality class than the nonequilibrium majority-vote models with homogeneous agents on square lattice.
