Abstract
We start from the stochastic Ising model(or Glauber Dynamics) and have a short review of some important topics in Particle Systems such as ergodicity, convergence rates and so on. Then an abstract nonlinear model will be introduced by an evolution differential equation. We will build the existence and uniqueness theorem, and give some nice properties such as convergence exponentially and monotonicity for the abstract systems. To apply our abstract theory, we will study a family of nonlinear interacting particle systems generalized from Glauber Type Dynamics(we call them nonlinear Glauber Type Dynamics) and prove that such generalization can be done in infinitely many ways. For nonlinear Glauber Type Dynamics, we have two interesting inequalities related to Gibbs measures. Finally, we will concentrate on one specific nonlinear dynamics, and provide the relation between nonlinear system and the linear one, and that between Gibbs measures and tangent functionals to a nonlinear transfer operator.
