Percolation critical exponents

In the context of the physical and mathematical theory of percolation, a percolation transition is characterized by a set of universal critical exponents, which describe the fractal properties of the percolating medium at large scales and sufficiently close to the transition. The exponents are universal in the sense that they only depend on the type of percolation model and on the space dimension. They are expected to not depend on microscopic details such as the lattice structure, or whether site or bond percolation is considered. This article deals with the critical exponents of random percolation. Percolating systems have a parameter which controls the occupancy of sites or bonds in the system. At a critical value , the mean cluster size goes to infinity and the percolation transition takes place. As one approaches , various quantities either diverge or go to a constant value by a power law in , and the exponent of that power law is the critical exponent. While the exponent of that power law is generally the same on both sides of the threshold, the coefficient or "amplitude" is generally different, leading to a universal amplitude ratio. (Wikipedia).

Percolation

Bond percolation on a square lattice. Each edge of the lattice is open with probability p, independently of all others. p is varied from 0 to 1. For more details on the simulations, see http://www.univ-orleans.fr/mapmo/membres/berglund/ressim.html

Remco van der Hofstad - Hypercube percolation

Consider bond percolation on the hypercube {0,1}^n at the critical probability p_c defined such that the expected cluster size equals 2^{n/3}, where 2^{n/3} acts as the cube root of the number of vertices of the n-cube. Percolation on the Hamming cube was proposed by Erdös and Spencer (197

Zooming out of Bernoulli site percolation configurations on a lattice of triangles

This three-part video shows zooms out of percolation configurations on a lattice of equilateral triangles, for three different values of the probability p that a cell is open: Subcritical (p = 0.8*pc): 0:00 Supercritical (p = 1.2*pc): 0:38 Critical (p = pc): 1:16 Here pc is the critical p

Michael Damron (Georgia Tech) -- Critical first-passage percolation in two dimensions

In 2d first-passage percolation (FPP), we place nonnegative i.i.d. weights (t_e) on the edges of Z^2 and study the induced weighted graph pseudometric T = T(x,y). If we denote by p = P(t_e = 0), then there is a transition in the large-scale behavior of the model as p varies from 0 to 1. Wh
