| Popis: | We study the $q$-state Potts model on a square lattice with directed nearest-neighbor spin-spin interactions that are inherently non-reciprocal. Both equilibrium and non-equilibrium dynamics are investigated. Analytically, we demonstrate that non-reciprocal interactions do not alter the critical exponents of the model under equilibrium dynamics. In contrast, numerical simulations with selfish non-equilibrium dynamics reveal distinctive behavior. For $q=2$ (non-reciprocal non-equilibrium Ising model), the critical exponents remain consistent with those of the equilibrium Ising universality class. However, for $q=3$ and $q=4$, the critical exponents vary continuously. Remarkably, a super-universal scaling function -- Binder cumulant as a function of $\xi_2/\xi_0$, where $\xi_2$ is the second moment correlation length and $\xi_0$ its maximum value -- remains identical to that of the equilibrium $q=3,4$ Potts models. These findings indicate that non-reciprocal Potts models belong to the superuniversality class of their respective equilibrium counterparts. Comment: 6 pages, 3 Figs, Supp. Material (4 pages) |
