摘要
We consider threshold voter systems in which the threshold tau > n/2, where n is the number of neighbors, and we present results in support of the following picture of what happens starting from product measure with density 1/2. The system fixates, that is, each site flips only finitely many times. There is a critical value, theta(c), so that if tau = thetan with theta > theta(c) and n is large then most sites never flip, while for theta is-an-element-of (1/2, theta(c)) and n large, the limiting state consists mostly of large regions of points of the same type. In d = 1, theta(c) almost-equal-to 0.6469076 while in d > 1, theta(c) = 3/4.
