Higher order interactions are increasingly recognised as a fundamental aspect of complex systems ranging from the brain to social contact networks. Hypergraph as well as simplicial complexes capture the higher-order interactions of complex…

Bootstrap percolation provides an emblematic instance of phase behavior characterised by an abrupt transition with diverging critical fluctuations. This unusual hybrid situation generally occurs in particle systems in which the occupation…

We consider bond percolation on random graphs with given degrees and bounded average degree. In particular, we consider the order of the largest component after the random deletion of the edges of such a random graph. We give a rough…

We consider first passage percolation on sparse random graphs with prescribed degree distributions and general independent and identically distributed edge weights assumed to have a density. Assuming that the degree distribution satisfies a…

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 $H$,…

Bootstrap percolation on the random graph $G_{n,p}$ is a process of spread of "activation" on a given realization of the graph with a given number of initially active nodes. At each step those vertices which have not been active but have at…

We numerically study bootstrap percolation on Kleinberg's spatial networks, in which the probability density function of a node to have a long-range link at distance $r$ scales as $P(r)\sim r^{\alpha}$. Setting the ratio of the size of the…

In r-neighbour bootstrap percolation on a graph G, a (typically random) set A of initially 'infected' vertices spreads by infecting (at each time step) vertices with at least r already-infected neighbours. This process may be viewed as a…

In their seminal paper introducing the theory of random graphs, Erd\H{o}s and R\'{e}nyi considered the evolution of the structure of a random subgraph of $K_n$ as the density increases from $0$ to $1$, identifying two key points in this…

Bootstrap percolation on an arbitrary graph has a random initial configuration, where each vertex is occupied with probability p, independently of each other, and a deterministic spreading rule with a fixed parameter k: if a vacant site has…

In this paper, we study the critical behavior of percolation on a configuration model with degree distribution satisfying an infinite second-moment condition, which includes power-law degrees with exponent $\tau \in (2,3)$. It is well known…

In r-neighbour bootstrap percolation on the vertex set of a graph G, vertices are initially infected independently with some probability p. At each time step, the infected set expands by infecting all uninfected vertices that have at least…

We introduce a new percolation model to describe and analyze the spread of an epidemic on a general directed and locally finite graph. We assign a two-dimensional random weight vector to each vertex of the graph in such a way that the…

In this paper we focus on $r$-neighbor bootstrap percolation, which is a process on a graph where initially a set $A_0$ of vertices gets infected. Now subsequently, an uninfected vertex becomes infected if it is adjacent to at least $r$…

Metastability thresholds lie at the heart of bootstrap percolation theory. Yet proving precise lower bounds is notoriously hard. We show that for two of the most classical models, two-neighbour and Frob\"ose, upper bounds are sharp to…

Percolation is a model for random damage to a network. It is one of the simplest models that displays a phase transition: when the network is severely damaged, it falls apart in many small connected components, while if the damage is light,…
