Abstract

Here, the model of non-equilibrium model with two states () and a noise on simple square lattices proposed for M.J. Oliveira (1992) following the conjecture of up-down symmetry of Grinstein and colleagues (1985) is studied and generalized. This model is well-known, today, as Majority-Vote Model. They showed, through Monte Carlo simulations, that their obtained results fall into the universality class of the equilibrium Ising model on a square lattice. In this work, we generalize the Majority-Vote Model for a version with three states, now including the zero state, () in two dimensions. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we showed that our model falls into the universality class of the spin-1 () and spin-1/2 Ising model and also agree with Majority-Vote Model proposed for M.J. Oliveira (1992) . The exponents ratio obtained for our model was , , and . The critical noise obtained and the fourth-order cumulant were and .
