Critical dynamics of the kinetic Glauber-Ising model on hierarchical lattices.

The critical dynamics of the kinetic Glauber-Ising model is studied on a family of the diamond-type hierarchical lattices with various branches. By carrying out the time-dependent real-space renormalization-group transformation to the master equation of the systems considered, the dynamic exponent is calculated. We find that the dynamic exponent depends on fractal dimension d(f) or the branch number m in a generator, and that it increases with the increase of d(f) or m. We notice that for the case of m=1 (one-dimensional spin chain, d(f)=1) our result z=2 is the same as the exact result obtained by Glauber, and for the case of m=2 (the simplest one in the diamond-type hierarchical lattices, d(f)=2) the exponent z=2.626 is higher than those of the two-dimensional regular lattice and the triangular lattice.
