Abstract
One-dimensional non-equilibrium kinetic Ising models evolving under the competing effect of spin flips at zero temperature and nearest-neighbour spin exchanges exhibiting directed percolation-like parity conserving(PC) phase transition on the level of kinks are now further investigated, numerically, from the point of view of the underlying spin system. Critical exponents characterising its statics and dynamics are reported. It is found that the influence of the PC transition on the critical exponents of the spins is strong and the origin of drastic changes as compared to the Glauber-Ising case can be traced back to the hyperscaling law stemming from directed percolation(DP). Effect of an external magnetic field, leading to DP-type critical behaviour on the level of kinks, is also studied, mainly through the generalised mean field approximation.
