Abstract
- The deterministic conserved threshold transfer process, which is a variant of the conserved threshold transfer process modified in a way as that hopping of a particle is to be deterministic, is proposed. The critical behavior of the model is investigated in one, two, and four dimensions. It is found that the order parameter yields a discontinuous transition; i.e., the transition appears to be first ordered in all dimensions considered. The origin of such a discontinuous transition is investigated, considering clustering of active sites and accumulation of critical sites just before the steady state is reached.
