Global persistence exponent in critical dynamics: finite-size-induced crossover.
We extend the definition of a global order parameter to the case of a critical system confined between two infinite parallel plates separated by a distance L. For a quench to the critical point we study the persistence property of the global order parameter and show that there is a crossover behavior characterized by a nonuniversal exponent which depends on the ratio of the system size to a dynamic length scale.
