Directed-bond percolation subjected to synthetic compressible velocity fluctuations: Renormalization group approach

详细

We study the directed-bond percolation process (sometimes called the Gribov process because it formally resembles Reggeon field theory) in the presence of irrotational velocity fluctuations with long-range correlations. We use the renormalization group method to investigate the phase transition between an active and an absorbing state. All calculations are in the one-loop approximation. We calculate stable fixed points of the renormalization group and their regions of stability in the form of expansions in three parameters (ε, y, η). We consider different regimes corresponding to the Kraichnan rapid-change model and a frozen velocity field.
