We study a percolation model with restrictions on the opening of sites on the square lattice. In this model, each site $s \in \mathbb{Z}^{2}$ starts closed and an attempt to open it occurs at time $t=t_s$, where $(t_s)_{s \in \mathbb{Z}^2}$…
We consider the $r$-neighbor bootstrap percolation process on the graph with vertex set $V=\{0,1\}^n$ and edges connecting the pairs at Hamming distance $1,2,\dots,k$, where $k\ge 2$. We find asymptotics of the critical probability of…
In $r$-neighbor bootstrap percolation on the vertex set of a graph $G$, a set $A$ of initially infected vertices spreads by infecting, at each time step, all uninfected vertices with at least $r$ previously infected neighbors. When the…
In graph bootstrap percolation, edges of an Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph ${\mathcal G}_{n,p}$ are initially active. Activation spreads to other edges of the complete graph $K_n$ by an iterative process governed by a fixed graph $H$,…
In this article, we study a bond percolation model on a horizontally stretched square lattice, constructed by stretching the distances between the columns of $\mathbb{Z}_+^2$ according to a collection of independent and identically…
Bootstrap percolation is a type of cellular automaton on graphs, introduced as a simple model of the dynamics of ferromagnetism. Vertices in a graph can be in one of two states: `healthy' or `infected' and from an initial configuration of…
Consider a $p$-random subset $A$ of initially infected vertices in the discrete cube $[L]^3$, and assume that the neighbourhood of each vertex consists of the $a_i$ nearest neighbours in the $\pm e_i$-directions for each $i \in \{1,2,3\}$,…
This paper presents a Monte-Carlo study of percolation in a distorted square lattice, in which, the adjacent sites are not equidistant. Starting with an undistorted lattice, the position of the lattice sites are shifted through a tunable…
In order to investigate the dependence on lattice size of several observables in percolation, the Hoshen-Kopelman algorithm was modified so that growing lattices could be simulated. By this way, when simulating a lattice of size L, lattices…
We introduce and study two variants of two-stage growth dynamics in $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with state space $\{0,1,2\}^{\mathbb{Z}^2}$. In each variant, vertices in state $0$ can be changed irreversibly to state $1$, and vertices in state $1$ can…
We consider the percolation problem of sites on an $L\times L$ square lattice with periodic boundary conditions which were unvisited by a random walk of $N=uL^2$ steps, i.e. are vacant. Most of the results are obtained from numerical…
We introduce and solve a model of hardcore particles on a one dimensional periodic lattice which undergoes an active-absorbing state phase transition at finite density. In this model an occupied site is defined to be active if its left…
The bootstrap percolation (or threshold model) is a dynamic process modelling the propagation of an epidemic on a graph, where inactive vertices become active if their number of active neighbours reach some threshold. We study an…
We study bootstrap percolation processes on random simplicial complexes of some fixed dimension $d \geq 3$. Starting from a single simplex of dimension $d$, we build our complex dynamically in the following fashion. We introduce new…
In this paper, site percolation on random $\Phi^{3}$ planar graphs is studied by Monte-Carlo numerical techniques. The method consists in randomly removing a fraction $q=1-p$ of vertices from graphs generated by Monte-Carlo simulations,…
The growth of two-dimensional lattice bond percolation clusters through a cooperative Achlioptas-type of process, where the choice of which bond to occupy next depends upon the masses of the clusters it connects, is shown to go through an…
We study how to restore site percolation on a damaged square lattice with nearest neighbor (N$^2$) interactions. Two strategies are suggested for a density $x$ of destroyed sites by a random attack at $p_c$. In the first one, a density $y$…
We study the onset of the bootstrap percolation transition as a model of generalized dynamical arrest. We develop a new importance-sampling procedure in simulation, based on rare events around "holes", that enables us to access bootstrap…
In the random $r$-neighbour bootstrap percolation process on a graph $G$, a set of initially infected vertices is chosen at random by retaining each vertex of $G$ independently with probability $p\in (0,1)$, and "healthy" vertices get…
We study a process termed "agglomerative percolation" (AP) in two dimensions. Instead of adding sites or bonds at random, in AP randomly chosen clusters are linked to all their neighbors. As a result the growth process involves a diverging…
