Critical phenomena on scale-free networks with a degree distribution $p_k \sim k^{-\lambda}$ exhibit rich finite-size effects due to its structural heterogeneity. We systematically study the finite-size scaling of percolation and identify…

Percolation has long served as a model for diverse phenomena and systems. The percolation transition, that is, the formation of a giant cluster on a macroscopic scale, is known as one of the most robust continuous transitions. Recently,…

A hybrid percolation transition (HPT) exhibits both discontinuity of the order parameter and critical behavior at the transition point. Such dynamic transitions can occur in two ways: by cluster pruning with suppression of loop formation of…

We propose a novel finite size scaling analysis for percolation transition observed in complex networks. While it is known that cooperative systems in growing networks often undergo an infinite order transition with inverted…

Based on the self-consistent equations of the order parameter $P_\infty$ and the mean cluster size $S$, we develop a novel self-consistent simulation (SCS) method for arbitrary percolation on the Bethe lattice (infinite homogeneous Cayley…

An explosive percolation transition is the abrupt emergence of a giant cluster at a threshold caused by a suppression of the growth of large clusters. In this paper, we consider the information entropy of the cluster size distribution,…

Recently, the diffusion-limited cluster aggregation (DLCA) model was restudied as a real-world example of showing discontinuous percolation transitions (PTs). Because a larger cluster is less mobile in Brownian motion, it comes into contact…

The evolution of the largest component has been studied intensely in a variety of random graph processes, starting in 1960 with the Erd\"os-R\'enyi process. It is well known that this process undergoes a phase transition at n/2 edges when,…

Percolation transition (PT) means the formation of a macroscopic-scale large cluster, which exhibits a continuous transition. However, when the growth of large clusters is globally suppressed, the type of PT is changed to a discontinuous…
