In a recent paper, we have reported a universal power law for both site and bond percolation thresholds in any Bravais lattice with q equivalent nearest neighbors in dimension d. We now extend it to three different classes of lattices which…
A power law is postulated for both site and bond percolation thresholds. The formula writes $p_c=p_0[(d-1)(q-1)]^{-a}d^{\ b}$, where $d$ is the space dimension and $q$ the coordination number. All thresholds up to $d\rightarrow \infty$ are…
Recently S.Galam and A.Mauger [Phys.Rev.E 56, 322 (1997); cond-mat/9706304 ] proposed an approximant which relates the bond and the site percolation threshold for a particular lattice. Their formula is based on a fit to exact and simulation…
An universal invariant for site and bond percolation thresholds (p_{cs} and p_{cb} respectively) is proposed. The invariant writes {p_{cs}}^{1/a_s}{p_{cb}}^{-1/a_b}=\delta/d where a_s, a_b and \delta are positive constants,and d the space…
We investigate percolation on a randomly directed lattice, an intermediate between standard percolation and directed percolation, focusing on the isotropic case in which bonds on opposite directions occur with the same probability. We…
The aim of this paper is to explore possible ways of extending Smirnov's proof of Cardy's formula for critical site-percolation on the triangular lattice to other cases (such as bond-percolation on the square lattice); the main question we…
We present a study of site and bond percolation on periodic lattices with (on average) fewer than three nearest neighbors per site. We have studied this issue in two contexts: By simulating oxides with a mixture of 2-coordinated and…
A calculation of site-bond percolation thresholds in many lattices in two to five dimensions is presented. The line of threshold values has been parametrized in the literature, but we show here that there are strong deviations from the…
Lattices that can be represented in a kagome-like form are shown to satisfy a universal percolation criticality condition, expressed as a relation between P_3, the probability that all three vertices in the triangle connect, and P_0, the…
We prove a remarkable combinatorial symmetry in the number of spanning configurations in site percolation: for a large class of lattices, the number of spanning configurations with an odd or even number of occupied sites differs by $\pm 1$.…
In this paper we compute the square lattice random sites percolation thresholds in case when sites from the 4th and the 5th coordination shells are included for neighbourhood. The obtained results support earlier claims, that (a) the…
The problem of percolation along sites of square lattice is studied. The number of contours being external boundaries for finite clusters has been estimated using geometric considerations. This estimation makes it possible to determine more…
We investigate the formation of an infinite cluster of entangled threads in a (2+1)-dimensional system. We demonstrate that topological percolation belongs to the universality class of the standard 2D bond percolation. We compute the…
Recent research on percolation has led to the construction of an infinite class of lattices for which the percolation thresholds can be determined exactly. We discuss the mathematical basis for the solutions of bond percolation models, and,…
Suggested by Scullard's recent star-triangle relation for bond correlated systems, we propose a general "cell/dual-cell" transformation, which allows in principle an infinite variety of lattices with exact percolation thresholds to be…
We simulate the bond and site percolation models on a simple-cubic lattice with linear sizes up to L=512, and estimate the percolation thresholds to be $p_c ({\rm bond})=0.248\,811\,82(10)$ and $p_c ({\rm site})=0.311\,607\,7(2)$. By…
The site percolation thresholds p_c are determined to high precision for eight Archimedean lattices, by the hull-walk gradient-percolation simulation technique, with the results p_c = 0.697043, honeycomb or (6^3), 0.807904 (3,12^{2}),…
The percolation transitions on hyperbolic lattices are investigated numerically using finite-size scaling methods. The existence of two distinct percolation thresholds is verified. At the lower threshold, an unbounded cluster appears and…
We present a general method for predicting bond percolation thresholds and critical surfaces for a broad class of two-dimensional periodic lattices, reproducing many known exact results and providing excellent approximations for several…
In a recent article, Galam and Mauger proposed an invariant for site and bond percolation thresholds, based on known values for twenty lattices (Eur. Phys. J. B 1 (1998) 255-258). Here we give a larger list of values for more than forty…
