Using a recently developed method to simulate percolation on large clusters of distributed machines [N. R. Moloney and G. Pruessner, Phys. Rev. E 67, 037701 (2003)], we have numerically calculated crossing, spanning and wrapping…
In the mean field (or random link) model there are $n$ points and inter-point distances are independent random variables. For $0 < \ell < \infty$ and in the $n \to \infty$ limit, let $\delta(\ell) = 1/n \times$ (maximum number of steps in a…
We present high statistics data on the distribution of shortest path lengths between two near-by points on the same cluster at the percolation threshold. Our data are based on a new and very efficient algorithm. For $d=2$ they clearly…
We show that a large class of site percolation processes on any planar graph contains either zero or infinitely many infinite connected components. The assumptions that we require are: tail triviality, positive association (FKG) and that…
Consider critical Bernoulli percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for $d$ large; let $y_0, \dots, y_{k-1}$ be $k$ distinct points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We prove that the probability that $\{\lfloor n y_i\rfloor\}_{i=0}^{k-1}$ all lie in the same open…
We consider the following oriented percolation model of $\mathbb {N} \times \mathbb{Z}^d$: we equip $\mathbb {N}\times \mathbb{Z}^d$ with the edge set $\{[(n,x),(n+1,y)] | n\in \mathbb {N}, x,y\in \mathbb{Z}^d\}$, and we say that each edge…
The state space of our model is the Euclidean space in dimension d = 2. Simultaneously, from all points of a homogeneous Poisson point process, we let grow independent and identically distributed random continuum paths. Each path stops…
Percolation models with multiple percolating clusters have attracted much attention in recent years. Here we use Monte Carlo simulations to study bond percolation on $L_{1}\times L_{2}$ planar random lattices, duals of random lattices, and…
Techniques of `dynamic renormalization', developed earlier for undirected percolation and the contact model, are adapted to the setting of directed percolation, thereby obtaining solutions of several problems for directed percolation on…
We derive an exact, simple relation between the average number of clusters and the wrapping probabilities for two-dimensional percolation. The relation holds for periodic lattices of any size. It generalizes a classical result of Sykes and…
We study the behavior of the optimal path between two sites separated by a distance $r$ on a $d$-dimensional lattice of linear size $L$ with weight assigned to each site. We focus on the strong disorder limit, i.e., when the weight of a…
The values obtained experimentally for the conductivity critical exponent in numerous percolation systems, in which the interparticle conduction is by tunnelling, were found to be in the range of $t_0$ and about $t_0+10$, where $t_0$ is the…
We investigate site percolation on a weighted planar stochastic lattice (WPSL) which is a multifractal and whose dual is a scale-free network. Percolation is typically characterized by percolation threshold $p_c$ and by a set of critical…
Percolation on a plane is usually associated with clusters spanning two opposite sides of a rectangular system. Here we investigate three-leg clusters generated on a square lattice and spanning the three sides of equilateral triangles. If…
It is known that the critical probability for the percolation transition is not a sharp threshold, actually it is a region of non-zero width $\Delta p_c$ for systems of finite size. Here we present evidence that for complex networks $\Delta…
Percolation and jamming phenomena are investigated for random sequential deposition of rectangular needles on $d=2$ square lattices. Associated thresholds $p_c^{perc}$ and $p_c^{jam}$ are determined for various needle sizes. Their ratios…
Extensive Monte-Carlo simulations were performed to evaluate the excess number of clusters and the crossing probability function for three-dimensional percolation on the simple cubic (s.c.), face-centered cubic (f.c.c.), and body-centered…
It is shown how twisted N=2 (k=1) provides for the first time a complete conformal field theory description of the usual geometrical phase transitions in two dimensions, like polymers, percolation or brownian motion. In particular, four…
We study the distribution of sizes of erased loops for loop-erased random walks on regular and fractal lattices. We show that for arbitrary graphs the probability $P(l)$ of generating a loop of perimeter $l$ is expressible in terms of the…
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…
