title: Phase transition in an asymmetric generalization of the zero-temperature q-state Potts model.
abstract: An asymmetric generalization of the zero-temperature q-state Potts model on a one-dimensional lattice, with and without boundaries, has been studied. The dynamics of the particle number, and especially the large time behavior of the system, has been analyzed. In the thermodynamic limit, the system exhibits two kinds of phase transitions, a static and a dynamic phase transition.
