Monte Carlo study of the two-dimensional kinetic Ising model under a nonantisymmetric magnetic field (2409.20152v2)

Abstract: We present a comprehensive numerical study of dynamic phase transitions in the two-dimensional kinetic Ising model under a non-antisymmetric time-dependent magnetic field including a sinusoidal term and a second harmonic component. We demonstrate that the expected antisymmetric property and the scaling behavior of the order parameter are maintained using the recently proposed generalized conjugate field approach. Via a detailed finite-size scaling analysis we compute, for zero-bias field, the set of critical exponents suggesting that the Ising universality class is conserved, even in the absence of half-wave antisymmetry in the time-dependent magnetic field. Our results verify up-to-date experimental observations and provide a deeper understanding of non-equilibrium phase transitions, establishing a broader framework for exploring symmetry-breaking phenomena in driven magnetic systems.
