Large clusters in a correlated percolation model

Statistical Mechanics 2026-01-21 v1

Abstract

We consider a correlated site percolation problem on a cubic lattice of size L3L^3, with 16L51216\le L\le 512. The sites of an initially full lattice are removed by a random walk of N=uL3{\cal N}=uL^3 steps. When the parameter uu crosses a threshold uc=3.15u_c=3.15, a large system transitions between percolating and non-percolating states. We study the LL-dependence of the mean mass (number of sites) MrM_r of the rrth largest cluster, as well as rr-dependence of MrM_r for various system sizes LL at ucu_c. We demonstrate that MrL5/2/r5/6M_r\sim L^{5/2}/r^{5/6} for moderate or large LL and r1r\gg 1, and also conclude that for {\em any} rr the fractal dimensions of the clusters are 5/25/2.
