Critical behavior of the majority voter model is independent of transition rates

We study the critical properties of the majority voter model by using two different transition rates: the Glauber rate and the Metropolis rate. The model with the Glauber rate has been found to be mapped to the majority voter model with noise [de Oliveira, J. Stat. Phys. 66, 273 (1992)]. The critical temperature and the critical exponents for the two transition rates are obtained from a Monte Carlo simulation with a finite size scaling analysis. The critical temperature is found to depend on the transition rate, but the critical exponents do not. The values of the critical exponents obtained indicate that the model belongs to the same universality class as the Ising model, regardless of the type of transition rate.
