Exact or precise thresholds have been intensively studied since the introduction of the percolation model. Recently the critical polynomial $P_{\rm B}(p,L)$ was introduced for planar-lattice percolation models, where $p$ is the occupation…

The Smith Hat tile is the first known aperiodic monotile, having been discovered in 2023. The simple structure, constructed using only 8 kites, is unique and well motivated for analysis within percolation theory. The primary goal of this…

In this article we prove that a large class of inflation tilings are hyperuniform: this includes the novel hat tilings introduced by Smith et al. and well known examples such as Penrose, Ammann-Beenker and shield tilings. In some cases,…

Covering a graph or a lattice with non-overlapping dimers is a problem that has received considerable interest in areas such as discrete mathematics, statistical physics, chemistry and materials science. Yet, the problem of percolation on…

Hyperbolic lattices interpolate between finite-dimensional lattices and Bethe lattices and are interesting in their own right with ordinary percolation exhibiting not one, but two, phase transitions. We study four constraint percolation…

Percolation theory is usually applied to lattices with a uniform probability p that a site is occupied or that a bond is closed. The more general case, where p is a function of the position x, has received less attention. Previous studies…
