Three different routes from the directed Ising to the directed percolation class.
The scaling nature of absorbing critical phenomena is well understood for the directed percolation (DP) and the directed Ising (DI) systems. However, a full analysis of the crossover behavior is still lacking, which is of our interest in this study. In one dimension, we find three different routes from the DI to the DP classes by introducing a symmetry-breaking field (SB), breaking a modulo 2 conservation (CB), or making channels connecting two equivalent absorbing states (CC). Each route can be characterized by a crossover exponent, which is found numerically as phi=2.1+/-0.1 (SB), 4.6+/-0.2 (CB), and 2.9+/-0.1 (CC), respectively. The difference between the SB and CB crossover can be understood easily in the domain wall language, while the CC crossover involves an additional critical singularity in the auxiliary field density with the memory effect to identify itself independent.
