Abstract in Portuguese
Estudamos o comportamento crítico e transições de fase em modelos estocásticos irreversíveis, através de simulações numéricas, análise de campo médio e séries perturbativas. Na primeira parte do trabalho, analisamos o comportamento crítico de autômatos celulares irreversíveis, cujas regras dinâmicas são invariantes sob as operações de simetria do grupo C3v. Estudamos as transições de fase dinâmicas que ocorrem nos modelos e obtemos, através de simulações de Monte Carlo, expoentes críticos estáticos e dinâmicos. Nossos resultados indicam que os modelos pertencem a mesma classe de universalidade do modelo de Potts de três estados. Essa conjectura também foi desenvolvida considerando expansões análogas àquelas utilizadas na teoria de Landau de transições de fase. Na segunda parte do trabalho utilizamos o formalismo de operadores como uma forma ele abordar problemas de sistemas ele não-equilíbrio. Aplicamos o formalismo para construir séries perturbativas para modelos irreversíveis ele dois estados.

Abstract in English
We study the critical behavior and phase transitions that take place in irreversible stochastic models through numerical simulations, mean field analysis and perturbative series. In the first part of this work we analyze the critical behavior of irreversible cellular automata whose dynamic rules are invariant under the symmetry operations of the point group C3v. We study the dynamical phase transitions that occur in the models and we obtain the static and dynamic critical exponents by the use of Monte Carlo simulations. Our results indicate that these models are in the same universality class as the three-state Potts model. This conjecture is also developed by considering expansions that are similar to those used in the Landau theory of phase transitions. In the second part of this work we use the operator fonnalism as a way to approach non- equilibrium systems. We apply this fonnalism in order to build perturbative series for two-state irreversible models.
