Rigidity percolation (RP) occurs when mechanical stability emerges in disordered networks as constraints or components are added. Here we discuss RP with structural correlations, an effect ignored in classical theories albeit relevant to…
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…
We study topological mechanics in two-dimensional quasicrystalline parallelogram tilings. Topological mechanics has been studied intensively in periodic lattices in the past a few years, leading to the discovery of topologically protected…
Aperiodic substitution tilings provide popular models for quasicrystals, materials exhibiting aperiodic order. We study the graph Laplacian associated with four tilings from the mutual local derivability class of the Penrose tiling, as well…
We simulate the bond and site percolation models on several three-dimensional lattices, including the diamond, body-centered cubic, and face-centered cubic lattices. As on the simple-cubic lattice [Phys. Rev. E, \textbf{87} 052107 (2013)],…
We study instabilities of single-species fermionic atoms in the p-orbital bands in two-dimensional optical lattices at noninteger filling against interactions. Charge density wave and orbital density wave orders with stripe or checkerboard…
The stacked triangular lattice has the shape of a triangular prism. In spite of being considered frequently in solid state physics and materials science, its percolation properties have received few attention. We investigate several…
While classical percolation is well understood, percolation effects in randomly packed or jammed structures are much less explored. Here we investigate both experimentally and theoretically the electrical percolation in a binary composite…
2-boostrap percolation on a graph is a diffusion process where a vertex gets infected whenever it has at least 2 infected neighbours, and then stays infected forever. It has been much studied on the infinite grid for random Bernoulli…
In the Edwards-Anderson model of spin glasses with a bimodal distribution of bonds, the degeneracy of the ground state allows one to define a structure called backbone, which can be characterized by the rigid lattice (RL), consisting of the…
We present a study on connectivity percolation in suspensions of hard platelets by means of Monte Carlo simulation. We interpret our results using a contact-volume argument based on an effective single--particle cell model. It is commonly…
We study the classical dimer model on rhombic Penrose tilings, whose edges and vertices may be identified with those of a bipartite graph. We find that Penrose tilings do not admit perfect matchings (defect-free dimer coverings). Instead,…
We present an alternative geometric representation for the eleven Archimedean lattices, in which each site and bond is uniquely labeled by an ordered pair of integers and characterized via a modular function. This structured labeling…
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…
In composite materials composed of soft polymer matrix and stiff, high-aspect-ratio particles, the composite undergoes a transition in mechanical strength when the inclusion phase surpasses a critical density. This phenomenon (rheological…
In this work we apply a highly efficient Monte Carlo algorithm recently proposed by Newman and Ziff to treat percolation problems. The site and bond percolation are studied on a number of lattices in two and three dimensions. Quite good…
A method to treat a N-component percolation model as effective one component model is presented by introducing a scaled control variable $p_{+}$. In Monte Carlo simulations on $16^{3}$, $32^{3}$, $64^{3}$ and $128^{3}$ simple cubic lattices…

We introduce two new concepts, frictional rigidity percolation and minimal rigidity proliferation, to help identify the nature of the frictional jamming transition as well as significantly broaden the scope of rigidity percolation. For…
Amorphous solids may resist external deformation such as shear or compression while they do not present any long-range translational order or symmetry at the microscopic scale. Yet, it was recently discovered that, when they become rigid,…
