Crossover from the pair contact process with diffusion to directed percolation.
Crossover behaviors from the pair contact process with diffusion (PCPD) and the driven PCPD (DPCPD) to the directed percolation (DP) are studied in one dimension by introducing a single particle annihilation and/or branching dynamics. The crossover exponents phi are estimated numerically as 1/phi approximately 0.58 +/- 0.03 for the PCPD and 1/phi approximately 0.49+/-0.02 for the DPCPD. Nontriviality of the PCPD crossover exponent strongly supports the non-DP nature of the PCPD critical scaling, which is further evidenced by the anomalous critical amplitude scaling near the PCPD point. In addition, we find that the DPCPD crossover is consistent with the mean field prediction of the tricritical DP class as expected.
