Different branching and annihilating random walk models are investigated by the cluster mean-field method and simulations in one and two dimensions. In the case of the A-->2A , 2A--> 0 model the cluster mean-field approximations show diffusion dependence in the phase diagram as was found recently by the nonperturbative renormalization group method [Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 255703 (2004)]]. The same type of survey for the A-->2A , 4A--> 0 model results in a reentrant phase diagram, similar to that…

We consider the branching and annihilating random walk $$A\to 2A$$ and $$2A\to 0$$ with reaction rates σ and λ, respectively, and hopping rate D, and study the phase diagram in the λ/D,σ/D) plane.

The crossover behavior of various models exhibiting phase transition to absorbing phase with parity conserving class has been investigated by numerical simulations and cluster mean-field method and the resulting models show a diversity within the DP universality class in one dimension.

A classification scheme of phase transitions in reaction-diffusion models based on the topology of the phase portraits of corresponding Hamiltonians is suggested, which identifies four families of topologically distinct classes of phase portraits stable upon renormalization group transformations.

We develop a systematic analytic approach to the problem of branching and annihilating random walks, equivalent to the diffusion-limited reaction processes 2A → ∅ and A → (m + 1) A, where m ≥ 1.

It is shown that a parity conserving model 3A-->5A, 2A--> zero in d=1 has a continuous phase transition with different kinds of exponents, in contradiction with the recently suggested implications of a phenomenological, multiplicative noise Langevin equation approach and with the simulations on suppressed bosonic systems.

The phase transitions of the recently introduced 2A-->3A, 4A--> phi reaction-diffusion model are explored in two dimensions and a reentrant phase diagram in the diffusion-creation rate space is confirmed, in agreement with cluster mean-field and one-dimensional results.

The multispecies annihilating random walk transition found at zero branching rate previously is investigated now concerning the cluster behavior of the underlying spins, and generic power-law behaviors are found, besides the phase transition point, also in the active phase with fulfillment of the hyperscaling law.
