Abstract

We consider the discrete surface growth process with relaxation to the minimum [F. Family, J. Phys. A {\bf 19} L441, (1986).] as a possible synchronization mechanism on scale-free networks, characterized by a degree distribution $P(k) \sim k^{-\lambda}$, where $k$ is the degree of a node and $\lambda$ his broadness, and compare it with the usually applied Edward-Wilkinson process [S. F. Edwards and D. R. Wilkinson, Proc. R. Soc. London Ser. A {\bf 381},17 (1982) ]. In spite of both processes belong to the same universality class for Euclidean lattices, in this work we demonstrate that for scale-free networks with exponents $\lambda<br />Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures
