We show that the reaction-diffusion process 3A -> 4A, 3A -> 2A exhibits a different type of continuous phase transition from an active into an absorbing phase. Because of the upper critical dimension d_c = 4/3 we expect the phase transition…

Recently there has been a debate concerning the universal properties of the phase transition in the pair contact process with diffusion (PCPD) $2A\to 3A, 2A\to \emptyset$. Although some of the critical exponents seem to coincide with those…
The steady-state phase diagram of the one-dimensional reaction-diffusion model 2A -> 3A, 2A -> 0 is studied through the non-hermitian density matrix renormalization group. In the absence of single-particle diffusion the model reduces to the…

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…
