Renormalized field theory of resistor diode percolation

Statistical Mechanics 2015-06-24 v1

Abstract

We study resistor diode percolation at the transition from the non-percolating to the directed percolating phase. We derive a field theoretic Hamiltonian which describes not only geometric aspects of directed percolation clusters but also their electric transport properties. By employing renormalization group methods we determine the average two-port resistance of critical clusters, which is governed by a resistance exponent ϕ\phi. We calculate ϕ\phi to two-loop order.
