We review and extend some recent investigations of the effects of aperiodic interactions on the critical behavior of ferromagnetic $q$-state Potts models. By considering suitable diamond or necklace hierarchical lattices, and assuming a…

We investigated the Ising model on a square lattice with ferro and antiferromagnetic interactions modulated by the quasiperiodic Octonacci sequence in both directions of the lattice. We have applied the Replica Exchange Monte Carlo…

Recently Carlon et. al. investigated the critical behavior of the pair contact process with diffusion [cond-mat/9912347]. Using density matrix renormalization group methods, they estimate the critical exponents, raising the possibility that…

The one-dimensional kinetic contact process with parallel update is introduced and studied by Monte Carlo simulations. This process is proposed to describe the plant population replication and epidemic disease spreading among them. The…

We develop a general theory for discontinuous non-equilibrium phase transitions into an absorbing state in the presence of temporal disorder. We focus in two paradigmatic models for discontinuous transitions: the quadratic contact process…

Phase transitions to absorbing states are among the simplest examples of critical phenomena out of equilibrium. The characteristic feature of these models is the presence of a fluctuationless configuration which the dynamics cannot leave,…

We study the universal critical behaviour near weakly first-order phase transitions for a three-dimensional model of two coupled scalar fields -- the cubic anisotropy model. Renormalization-group techniques are employed within the formalism…

We study the phase transition to the superconducting state taking into account the fluctuations of the order parameter and of the vector magnetic field and discuss the question of the order of transition occuring in this model. We use the…

We consider systems whose steady-states exhibit a nonequilibrium phase transition from an active state to one -among an infinite number- absorbing state, as some control parameter is varied across a threshold value. The pair contact…

We investigate a generalized interpolating Aubry-Andr\'{e}-Fibonacci (IAAF) model with p-wave superconducting pairing. In the Aubry-Andr\'{e} limit, we demonstrate that the system experiences transitions from a pure phase, either extended…

Classically scale-invariant (and perturbative) theories provide a way to understand large hierarchies, as scales are generated through dimensional transmutation. They always lead to first-order phase transitions, since symmetries are…

We determine the first through fourth moments of the order parameter, and various ratios, for several one- and two-dimensional models with absorbing-state phase transitions. We perform a detailed analysis of the system-size dependence of…

Quantum critical points in quasiperiodic magnets can realize new universality classes, with critical properties distinct from those of clean or disordered systems. Here, we study quantum phase transitions separating ferromagnetic and…

We investigated the critical behavior of the Ising model in a triangular lattice with ferro and anti-ferromagnetic interactions modulated by the Fibonacci sequence, by using finite-size numerical simulations. Specifically, we used a replica…

We investigate the problem of the superuniversality of the phase transition between different quantum Hall plateaus. We construct a set of models which give a qualitative description of this transition in a pure system of interacting…

We study the Potts model on a rectangular lattice with aperiodic modulations in its interactions along one direction. Numerical results are obtained using the Wolff algorithm and for many lattice sizes, allowing for a finite-size scaling…

We study the phase diagram and critical behavior of an interacting one dimensional two species monomer-monomer catalytic surface reaction model with a reactive phase as well as two equivalent adsorbing phase where one of the species…

We study a contact process with creation at first- and second-neighbor sites and inhibition at first neighbors, in the form of an annihilation rate that increases with the number of occupied first neighbors. Mean-field theory predicts three…

It is argued that some phase--transitions observed in models of non-equilibrium wetting phenomena are related to contact processes with long-range interactions. This is investigated by introducing a model where the activation rate of a site…

We study the nonequilibrium phase transition in the one-dimensional contact process with quenched spatial disorder by means of large-scale Monte-Carlo simulations for times up to $10^9$ and system sizes up to $10^7$ sites. In agreement with…
