Popis: We investigate the three-state majority-vote model with noise on scale-free and regular networks. In this model, an individual selects an opinion equal to the opinion of the majority of its neighbors with probability $1 - q$ and opposite to it with probability $q$. The parameter $q$ is called the noise parameter of the model. We build a network of interactions where $z$ neighbors are selected by each added site in the system, yielding a preferential attachment network with degree distribution $k^{-\lambda}$, where $\lambda \sim 3$. In this work, $z$ is called growth parameter. Using finite-size scaling analysis, we show that the critical exponents associated with the magnetization and magnetic susceptibility add up to unity when a volumetric scaling is used, regardless of the dimension of the network of interactions. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we calculate the critical noise parameter $q_c$ as a function of $z$ for the scale-free networks and obtain the phase diagram of the model. We find that the critical noise is an increasing function of the growth parameter $z$, and we define and verify numerically the unitary relation $\upsilon$ for the critical exponents by calculating $\beta /\bar\nu$, $\gamma /\bar\nu$ and $1/\bar\nu$ for several values of the network parameter $z$. We also obtain the critical noise and the critical exponents for the two and three-state majority-vote model on cubic lattices networks where we illustrate the application of the unitary relation with a volumetric scaling.
