Abstract
A power law is postulated for both site and bond percolation thresholds. The formula writes , where is the space dimension and the coordination number. All thresholds up to are found to belong to only three universality classes. For first two classes for site dilution while for bond dilution. The last one associated to high dimensions is characterized by for both sites and bonds. Classes are defined by a set of value for . Deviations from available numerical estimates at are within and for high dimensional hypercubic expansions at . The formula is found to be also valid for Ising critical temperatures.
