Competitive nucleation and the Ostwald rule in a generalized Potts model with multiple metastable phases
David P. Sanders, Hernán Larralde, François Leyvraz
We introduce a simple nearest-neighbor spin model with multiple metastable phases, the number and decay pathways of which are explicitly controlled by the parameters of the system.…

Metastability in Markov processes
Hernan Larralde, Francois Leyvraz, David P. Sanders
We present a formalism to describe slowly decaying systems in the context of finite Markov chains obeying detailed balance. We show that phase space can be partitioned into approxi…
