Graph bootstrap percolation is a deterministic cellular automaton which was introduced by Bollob\'as in 1968, and is defined as follows. Given a graph $H$, and a set $G \subset E(K_n)$ of initially `infected' edges, we infect, at each time…

In $H$-percolation, we start with an Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi graph ${\mathcal G}_{n,p}$ and then iteratively add edges that complete copies of $H$. The process percolates if all edges missing from ${\mathcal G}_{n,p}$ are eventually added. We…

Given a hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$, the $\mathcal{H}$-bootstrap process starts with an initial set of infected vertices of $\mathcal{H}$ and, at each step, a healthy vertex $v$ becomes infected if there exists a hyperedge of $\mathcal{H}$ in…

Bootstrap percolation on a graph with infection threshold $r\in \mathbb{N}$ is an infection process, which starts from a set of initially infected vertices and in each step every vertex with at least $r$ infected neighbours becomes…

The process of $H$-bootstrap percolation for a graph $H$ is a cellular automaton, where, given a subset of the edges of $K_n$ as initial set, an edge is added at time $t$ if it is the only missing edge in a copy of $H$ in the graph obtained…

We investigate the threshold probability for connectivity of sparse graphs under weak assumptions. As a corollary this completely solve the problem for Cartesian powers of arbitrary graphs. In detail, let $G$ be a connected graph on $k$…

We prove tight bounds on the site percolation threshold for $k$-uniform hypergraphs of maximum degree $\Delta$ and for $k$-uniform hypergraphs of maximum degree $\Delta$ in which any pair of edges overlaps in at most $r$ vertices. The…

A uniform attachment graph (with parameter $k$), denoted $G_{n,k}$ in the paper, is a random graph on the vertex set $[n]$, where each vertex $v$ makes $k$ selections from $[v-1]$ uniformly and independently, and these selections determine…

Consider a critical Erd\"os-R\'enyi random graph: $n$ is the number of vertices, each one of the $\binom{n}{2}$ possible edges is kept in the graph independently from the others with probability $n^{-1}+\lambda n^{-4/3}$, $\lambda$ being a…

Graph-bootstrap percolation, also known as weak saturation, was introduced by Bollob\'as in 1968. In this process, we start with initial "infected" set of edges $E_0$, and we infect new edges according to a predetermined rule. Given a graph…

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…

Bootstrap percolation is a well-known activation process in a graph, in which a node becomes active when it has at least $r$ active neighbors. Such process, originally studied on regular structures, has been recently investigated also in…

We study percolation on self-dual hypergraphs that contain hyperedges with four bounding vertices, or "four-edges", using three different generators, each containing bonds or sites with three distinct probabilities $p$, $r$, and $t$…

We show that for each $r\ge 4$, in a density range extending up to, and slightly beyond, the threshold for a $K_r$-factor, the copies of $K_r$ in the random graph $G(n,p)$ are randomly distributed, in the (one-sided) sense that the…

Let $G$ be a vertex-transitive graph of superlinear polynomial growth. Given $r>0$, let $G_r$ be the graph on the same vertex set as $G$, with two vertices joined by an edge if and only if they are at graph distance at most $r$ apart in…

Given a graph $\Gamma$, its auxiliary \emph{square-graph} $\square(\Gamma)$ is the graph whose vertices are the non-edges of $\Gamma$ and whose edges are the pairs of non-edges which induce a square (i.e., a $4$-cycle) in $\Gamma$. We…
