Enormous advances have been made in the past 20 years in our understanding of the random-field Ising model, and there is now consensus on many aspects of its behavior at least in thermal equilibrium. In contrast, little is known about its…
We consider a non-equilibrium three-state model whose dynamics is Markovian and displays the same symmetry as the three-state Potts model, i.e., the transition rates are invariant under the permutation of the states. Unlike the Potts model,…
