Hyperscaling in the Domany-Kinzel Cellular Automaton

Condensed Matter 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

An apparent violation of hyperscaling at the endpoint of the critical line in the Domany-Kinzel stochastic cellular automaton finds an elementary resolution upon noting that the order parameter is discontinuous at this point. We derive a hyperscaling relation for such transitions and discuss applications to related examples.
