Comment on: "Superscaling of Percolation on Rectangular Domains"

Statistical Mechanics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

In [Watanabe et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 93 190601 (2004)], the authors show numerically that spanning and percolation probabilities in two-dimensional systems with different aspect ratios obey a form of "superscaling". In this comment, we would like to point out some difficulties with their proposed scaling ansatz and suggest why this remained undetected in their numerical analysis.
