Abstract
In modified two-neighbour bootstrap percolation in two dimensions each site of is initially independently infected with probability and on each discrete time step one additionally infects sites with at least two non-opposite infected neighbours. In this note we establish that for this model the second term in the asymptotics of the infection time unexpectedly scales differently from the classical two-neighbour model, in which arbitrary two infected neighbours are required. More precisely, we show that for modified bootstrap percolation with high probability as it holds that for some positive constant , while the classical model is known to lack the logarithmic factor.
