First-order phase transition in a majority-vote model with inertia

First-order phase transition in a majority-vote model with inertia

We generalize the original majority-vote model by incorporating inertia into the microscopic dynamics of the spin flipping, where the spin-flip probability of any individual depends not only on the states of its neighbors, but also on its own state. Surprisingly, the order-disorder phase transition is changed from a usual continuous …
