Coarsening in the long-range Persistent Voter Model
Jeferson J. Arenzon, F. Corberi, W. G. Dantas +1
We investigate the coarsening kinetics in a long-range variant of the Persistent Voter Model in space dimension and 2. In this model agents can hold two confidence levels, no…
Universal Coarsening and Giant-Cluster Formation in Growing Interfaces
Renan A. L. Almeida, Tiago J. Oliveira, Jeferson J. Arenzon +1
Clusters formed by fluctuations of two-dimensional (2D) directed interfaces around a threshold level have been extensively studied at equilibrium and in nonequilibrium steady state…
Critical clusters in liquid crystals: Fractal geometry and conformal invariance
Renan A. L. Almeida, Jeferson J. Arenzon
We study the two-dimensional domain morphology of twisted nematic liquid crystals during their phase-ordering kinetics [R. A. L. Almeida, Phys. Rev. Lett. 131 (2023) 268101], which…
Coarsening in the Persistent Voter Model: analytical results
R. G. de Almeida, J. J. Arenzon, F. Corberi +2
We investigate the coarsening dynamics of a simplified version of the persistent voter model in which an agent can become a zealot -- i.e. resistent to change opinion -- at each st…
Opinion inertia and coarsening in the Persistent Voter model
Luis Carlos F. Latoski, W. G. Dantas, Jeferson J. Arenzon
We consider the Persistent Voter model (PVM), a variant of the Voter model (VM) that includes transient, dynamically-induced zealots. Due to peer reinforcement, the internal confid…
