Abstract
We show that the two-dimensional voter model, usually considered to be only a marginal coarsening system, represents a broad class of models for which phase ordering takes place without surface tension. We argue that voter-like growth is generically observed at order-disorder nonequilibrium transitions solely driven by interfacial noise between dynamically symmetric absorbing states.Keywords
