Role of Irreversibility in Stabilizing Complex and Nonergodic Behavior in Locally Interacting Discrete Systems

Abstract
Irreversibility stabilizes certain locally interacting discrete systems against the nucleation and growth of a most-stable phase, thereby enabling them to behave in a computationally complex and nonergodic manner over a set of positive measure in the parameter space of their local transition probabilities, unlike analogous reversible systems.
