The biased link occupation rule in the Achlioptas process (AP) discourages the large clusters to grow much ahead of others and encourages faster growth of clusters which lag behind. In this paper we propose a model where this tendency is…
The percolation phase transitions of two-dimensional lattice networks under a generalized Achlioptas process (GAP) are investigated. During the GAP, two edges are chosen randomly from the lattice and the edge with minimum product of the two…
Clusters generated by the product-rule growth model of Achlioptas, D'Souza, and Spencer on a two-dimensional square lattice are shown to obey qualitatively different scaling behavior than standard (random growth) percolation. The threshold…
After the Achlioptas process (AP), which yields the so-called explosive percolation, was introduced, the number of papers on percolation phenomena has been literally exploding. Most of the existing studies, however, have focused only on the…
Achlioptas processes are a class of dynamically grown random graphs where on each step several edges are chosen at random but only one is added. The sum rule, product rule, and bounded size rules have been extensively studied. Here we…
We investigate bond percolation on mediation-driven attachment (MDA) networks under the generalized Achlioptas process, where $M>1$ candidate bonds are sampled and the one that minimizes the resulting cluster size is selected the…
Percolation on a one-dimensional lattice and fractals such as the Sierpinski gasket is typically considered to be trivial because they percolate only at full bond density. By dressing up such lattices with small-world bonds, a novel…
We extend the Achlioptas model for the delay of criticality in the percolation problem. Instead of having a completely random connectivity pattern, we generalize the idea of the two-site probe in the Achlioptas model for connecting smaller…
It is widely believed that certain simple modifications of the random graph process lead to discontinuous phase transitions. In particular, starting with the empty graph on $n$ vertices, suppose that at each step two pairs of vertices are…
Using the finite-size scaling, we have investigated the percolation phase transitions of evolving random networks under a generalized Achlioptas process (GAP). During this GAP, the edge with minimum product of two connecting cluster sizes…
Explosive Percolation describes the abrupt onset of large-scale connectivity that results from a simple random process designed to delay the onset of the transition on an underlying random network or lattice. Explosive percolation…
There is still much to discover about the mechanisms and nature of discontinuous percolation transitions. Much of the past work considers graph evolution algorithms known as Achlioptas processes in which a single edge is added to the graph…
In Achlioptas processes, starting from an empty graph, in each step two potential edges are chosen uniformly at random, and using some rule one of them is selected and added to the evolving graph. Although the evolution of such `local'…
Bootstrap, or $k$-core, percolation displays on the Bethe lattice a mixed first/second order phase transition with both a discontinuous order parameter and diverging critical fluctuations. I apply the recently introduced $M$-layer technique…
Despite original claims of a first-order transition in the product rule model proposed by Achlioptas et al. [Science 323, 1453 (2009)], recent studies indicate that this percolation model, in fact, displays a continuous transition. The…
Our recent study on the Bethe lattice reported that a discontinuous percolation transition emerges as the number of occupied links increases and each node rewires its links to locally suppress the growth of neighboring clusters. However,…
Higher-order exceptional points (EPs) govern non-Hermitian system dynamics through their enriched and sharpened spectral topology, yet the intrinsic topological fragility hinders robust experimental realization. Here, we present a scalable…
We consider a percolation process in which $k$ points separated by a distance proportional to system size $L$ simultaneously connect together ($k>1$), or a single point at the center of a system connects to the boundary ($k=1$), through…
Order parameter fluctuations (the largest cluster size distribution) are studied within a three-dimensional bond percolation model on small lattices. Cumulant ratios measuring the fluctuations exhibit distinct features near the percolation…
We study site- and bond-percolation on a class of lattices referred to as Lieb lattices. In two dimensions the Lieb lattice (LL) is also known as the decorated square lattice, or as the CuO$_2$ lattice; in three dimensions it can be…
