A hyperscaling relation for the critical exponents of absorbing phase transitions is tested in the bosonic pair contact process with diffusion. To this end spreading is considered, i.e. the time evolution out of an initial seed. It is shown…
Many systems that can be described in terms of diffusion-limited `chemical' reactions display non-equilibrium continuous transitions separating active from inactive, absorbing states, where stochastic fluctuations cease entirely. Their…
