The percolation threshold is a mathematical concept in percolation theory that describes the formation of long-range connectivity in random systems. Below the threshold a giant connected component does not exist; while above it, there exists a giant component of the order of system size. In engineering and coffee making, percolation represents the flow of fluids through porous media, but in the mathematics and physics worlds it generally refers to simplified lattice models of random systems or networks (graphs), and the nature of the connectivity in them. The percolation threshold is the critical value of the occupation probability p, or more generally a critical surface for a group of parameters p₁, p₂, ..., such that infinite connectivity (percolation) first occurs.

The most common percolation model is to take a regular lattice, like a square lattice, and make it into a random network by randomly "occupying" sites (vertices) or bonds (edges) with a statistically independent probability p. At a critical threshold p_c, large clusters and long-range connectivity first appear, and this is called the percolation threshold. Depending on the method for obtaining the random network, one distinguishes between the site percolation threshold and the bond percolation threshold. More general systems have several probabilities p₁, p₂, etc., and the transition is characterized by a critical surface or manifold. One can also consider continuum systems, such as overlapping disks and spheres placed randomly, or the negative space (Swiss-cheese models).

To understand the threshold, you can consider a quantity such as the probability that there is a continuous path from one boundary to another along occupied sites or bonds—that is, within a single cluster. For example, one can consider a square system, and ask for the probability P that there is a path from the top boundary to the bottom boundary. As a function of the occupation probability p, one finds a sigmoidal plot that goes from P=0 at p=0 to P=1 at p=1. The larger the square is compared to the lattice spacing, the sharper the transition will be. When the system size goes to infinity, P(p) will be a step function at the threshold value p_c. For finite large systems, P(p_c) is a constant whose value depends upon the shape of the system; for the square system discussed above, P(p_c)=1⁄2 exactly for any lattice by a simple symmetry argument.

There are other signatures of the critical threshold. For example, the size distribution (number of clusters of size s) drops off as a power-law for large s at the threshold, n_s(p_c) ~ s^−τ, where τ is a dimension-dependent percolation critical exponents. For an infinite system, the critical threshold corresponds to the first point (as p increases) where the size of the clusters become infinite.

In the systems described so far, it has been assumed that the occupation of a site or bond is completely random—this is the so-called Bernoulli percolation. For a continuum system, random occupancy corresponds to the points being placed by a Poisson process. Further variations involve correlated percolation, such as percolation clusters related to Ising and Potts models of ferromagnets, in which the bonds are put down by the Fortuin–Kasteleyn method. In bootstrap or k-sat percolation, sites and/or bonds are first occupied and then successively culled from a system if a site does not have at least k neighbors. Another important model of percolation, in a different universality class altogether, is directed percolation, where connectivity along a bond depends upon the direction of the flow. Another variation of recent interest is Explosive Percolation, whose thresholds are listed on that page.

Over the last several decades, a tremendous amount of work has gone into finding exact and approximate values of the percolation thresholds for a variety of these systems. Exact thresholds are only known for certain two-dimensional lattices that can be broken up into a self-dual array, such that under a triangle-triangle transformation, the system remains the same. Studies using numerical methods have led to numerous improvements in algorithms and several theoretical discoveries.

Simple duality in two dimensions implies that all fully triangulated lattices (e.g., the triangular, union jack, cross dual, martini dual and asanoha or 3-12 dual, and the Delaunay triangulation) all have site thresholds of1⁄2, and self-dual lattices (square, martini-B) have bond thresholds of1⁄2.

The notation such as (4,8²) comes from Grünbaum and Shephard, and indicates that around a given vertex, going in the clockwise direction, one encounters first a square and then two octagons. Besides the eleven Archimedean lattices composed of regular polygons with every site equivalent, many other more complicated lattices with sites of different classes have been studied.

Error bars in the last digit or digits are shown by numbers in parentheses. Thus, 0.729724(3) signifies 0.729724 ± 0.000003, and 0.74042195(80) signifies 0.74042195 ± 0.00000080. The error bars variously represent one or two standard deviations in net error (including statistical and expected systematic error), or an empirical confidence interval, depending upon the source.

For a random tree-like network (i.e., a connected network with no cycle) without degree-degree correlation, it can be shown that such network can have a giant component, and the percolation threshold (transmission probability) is given by

${\displaystyle p_{c}={\frac {1}{g_{1}'(1)}}={\frac {\langle k\rangle }{\langle k^{2}\rangle -\langle k\rangle }}}$.

Where ${\displaystyle g_{1}(z)}$is the generating function corresponding to the excess degree distribution, ${\displaystyle {\langle k\rangle }}$is the average degree of the network and ${\displaystyle {\langle k^{2}\rangle }}$is the second moment of the degree distribution. So, for example, for an ER network, since the degree distribution is a Poisson distribution, where${\displaystyle {\langle k^{2}\rangle =\langle k\rangle ^{2}+\langle k\rangle },}$the threshold is at ${\displaystyle p_{c}={\langle k\rangle }^{-1}}$.

In networks with low clustering, ${\displaystyle 0<C\ll 1}$, the critical point gets scaled by ${\displaystyle (1-C)^{-1}}$such that:

${\displaystyle p_{c}={\frac {1}{1-C}}{\frac {1}{g_{1}'(1)}}.}$

This indicates that for a given degree distribution, the clustering leads to a larger percolation threshold, mainly because for a fixed number of links, the clustering structure reinforces the core of the network with the price of diluting the global connections. For networks with high clustering, strong clustering could induce the core–periphery structure, in which the core and periphery might percolate at different critical points, and the above approximate treatment is not applicable.

Note: sometimes "hexagonal" is used in place of honeycomb, although in some contexts a triangular lattice is also called a hexagonal lattice. z = bulk coordination number.

In this section, sq-1,2,3 corresponds to square (NN+2NN+3NN), etc. Equivalent to square-2N+3N+4N, sq(1,2,3). tri = triangular, hc = honeycomb.

Here NN = nearest neighbor, 2NN = second nearest neighbor (or next nearest neighbor), 3NN = third nearest neighbor (or next-next nearest neighbor), etc. These are also called 2N, 3N, 4N respectively in some papers.

• For overlapping or touching squares, ${\displaystyle p_{c}}$(site) given here is the net fraction of sites occupied ${\displaystyle \phi _{c}}$similar to the ${\displaystyle \phi _{c}}$in continuum percolation. The case of a 2×2 square is equivalent to percolation of a square lattice NN+2NN+3NN+4NN or sq-1,2,3,4 with threshold ${\displaystyle 1-(1-\phi _{c})^{1/4}=0.196724(10)\ldots }$with ${\displaystyle \phi _{c}=0.58365(2)}$. The 3×3 square corresponds to sq-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 with z=44 and ${\displaystyle p_{c}=1-(1-\phi _{c})^{1/9}=0.095765(5)\ldots }$. The value of z for a k x k square is (2k+1)²-5.

Here, one distorts a regular lattice of unit spacing by moving vertices uniformly within the box ${\displaystyle (x-\alpha ,x+\alpha ),(y-\alpha ,y+\alpha )}$, and considers percolation when sites are within Euclidean distance ${\displaystyle d}$of each other.

Site threshold is number of overlapping objects per lattice site. k is the length (net area). Overlapping squares are shown in the complex neighborhood section. Here z is the coordination number to k-mers of either orientation, with ${\displaystyle z=k^{2}+10k-2}$for ${\displaystyle 1\times k}$sticks.

The coverage is calculated from ${\displaystyle p_{c}}$by ${\displaystyle \phi _{c}=1-(1-p_{c})^{2k}}$for ${\displaystyle 1\times k}$sticks, because there are ${\displaystyle 2k}$sites where a stick will cause an overlap with a given site.

For aligned ${\displaystyle 1\times k}$sticks: ${\displaystyle \phi _{c}=1-(1-p_{c})^{k}}$

In AB percolation, a ${\displaystyle p_{\mathrm {site} }}$is the proportion of A sites among B sites, and bonds are drawn between sites of opposite species. It is also called antipercolation.

In colored percolation, occupied sites are assigned one of ${\displaystyle n}$colors with equal probability, and connection is made along bonds between neighbors of different colors.

Site bond percolation. Here ${\displaystyle p_{s}}$is the site occupation probability and ${\displaystyle p_{b}}$is the bond occupation probability, and connectivity is made only if both the sites and bonds along a path are occupied. The criticality condition becomes a curve ${\displaystyle f(p_{s},p_{b})}$= 0, and some specific critical pairs ${\displaystyle (p_{s},p_{b})}$are listed below.

This figure shows something similar to the 2-uniform lattice #37, except the polygons are not all regular—there is a rectangle in the place of the two squares—and the size of the polygons is changed. This lattice is in the isoradial representation in which each polygon is inscribed in a circle of unit radius. The two squares in the 2-uniform lattice must now be represented as a single rectangle in order to satisfy the isoradial condition. The lattice is shown by black edges, and the dual lattice by red dashed lines. The green circles show the isoradial constraint on both the original and dual lattices. The yellow polygons highlight the three types of polygons on the lattice, and the pink polygons highlight the two types of polygons on the dual lattice. The lattice has vertex types (1⁄2)(3³,4²) + (1⁄2)(3,4,6,4), while the dual lattice has vertex types (1⁄15)(4⁶)+(6⁄15)(4²,5²)+(2⁄15)(5³)+(6⁄15)(5²,4). The critical point is where the longer bonds (on both the lattice and dual lattice) have occupation probability p = 2 sin (π/18) = 0.347296... which is the bond percolation threshold on a triangular lattice, and the shorter bonds have occupation probability 1 − 2 sin(π/18) = 0.652703..., which is the bond percolation on a hexagonal lattice. These results follow from the isoradial condition but also follow from applying the star-triangle transformation to certain stars on the honeycomb lattice. Finally, it can be generalized to having three different probabilities in the three different directions, p₁, p₂ and p₃ for the long bonds, and 1 − p₁, 1 − p₂, and 1 − p₃ for the short bonds, where p₁, p₂ and p₃ satisfy the critical surface for the inhomogeneous triangular lattice.

The threshold gives the fraction of sites occupied by the objects when site percolation first takes place (not at full jamming). For longer k-mers see Ref.

Here, we are dealing with networks that are obtained by covering a lattice with dimers, and then consider bond percolation on the remaining bonds. In discrete mathematics, this problem is known as the 'perfect matching' or the 'dimer covering' problem.

kxkxk cubes are cubes of occupied sites on a lattice, and are equivalent to extended-range percolation of a cube of length (2k+1), with edges and corners removed, with z = (2k+1)³-12(2k-1)-9 (center site not counted in z).

Question: the bond thresholds for the hcp and fcc lattice agree within the small statistical error. Are they identical, and if not, how far apart are they? Which threshold is expected to be bigger? Similarly for the ice and diamond lattices. See

Here, one distorts a regular lattice of unit spacing by moving vertices uniformly within the cube ${\displaystyle (x-\alpha ,x+\alpha ),(y-\alpha ,y+\alpha ),(z-\alpha ,z+\alpha )}$, and considers percolation when sites are within Euclidean distance ${\displaystyle d}$of each other.

Site threshold is the number of overlapping objects per lattice site. The coverage φ_c is the net fraction of sites covered, and v is the volume (number of cubes). Overlapping cubes are given in the section on thresholds of 3D lattices. Here z is the coordination number to k-mers of either orientation, with ${\displaystyle z=6k^{2}+18k-4}$

The coverage is calculated from ${\displaystyle p_{c}}$by ${\displaystyle \phi _{c}=1-(1-p_{c})^{3k}}$for sticks, and ${\displaystyle \phi _{c}=1-(1-p_{c})^{3k^{2}}}$for plaquettes.

Void percolation refers to percolation in the space around overlapping objects. Here ${\displaystyle \phi _{c}}$refers to the fraction of the space occupied by the voids (not of the particles) at the critical point, and is related to ${\displaystyle \eta _{c}}$by ${\displaystyle \phi _{c}=e^{-\eta _{c}}}$. ${\displaystyle \eta _{c}}$is defined as in the continuum percolation section above.

${\displaystyle ^{*}}$In drilling percolation, the site threshold ${\displaystyle p_{c}}$represents the fraction of columns in each direction that have not been removed, and ${\displaystyle \phi _{c}=p_{c}^{3}}$. For the 1d drilling, we have ${\displaystyle \phi _{c}=p_{c}}$(columns) ${\displaystyle p_{c}}$(sites).

^† In tube percolation, the bond threshold represents the value of the parameter ${\displaystyle \mu }$such that the probability of putting a bond between neighboring vertical tube segments is ${\displaystyle 1-e^{-\mu h_{i}}}$, where ${\displaystyle h_{i}}$is the overlap height of two adjacent tube segments.

${\displaystyle \eta _{c}=(\pi ^{d/2}/\Gamma [d/2+1])r^{d}N/L^{d}.}$

In 4d, ${\displaystyle \eta _{c}=(1/2)\pi ^{2}r^{4}N/L^{4}}$.

In 6d, ${\displaystyle \eta _{c}=(1/6)\pi ^{3}r^{6}N/L^{6}}$.

${\displaystyle \phi _{c}=1-e^{-\eta _{c}}}$is the critical volume fraction, valid for overlapping objects.

For void models, ${\displaystyle \phi _{c}=e^{-\eta _{c}}}$is the critical void fraction, and ${\displaystyle \eta _{c}}$is the total volume of the overlapping objects

For thresholds on high dimensional hypercubic lattices, we have the asymptotic series expansions

${\displaystyle p_{c}^{\mathrm {site} }(d)=\sigma ^{-1}+{\frac {3}{2}}\sigma ^{-2}+{\frac {15}{4}}\sigma ^{-3}+{\frac {83}{4}}\sigma ^{-4}+{\frac {6577}{48}}\sigma ^{-5}+{\frac {119077}{96}}\sigma ^{-6}+{\mathcal {O}}(\sigma ^{-7})}$

${\displaystyle p_{c}^{\mathrm {bond} }(d)=\sigma ^{-1}+{\frac {5}{2}}\sigma ^{-3}+{\frac {15}{2}}\sigma ^{-4}+57\sigma ^{-5}+{\frac {4855}{12}}\sigma ^{-6}+{\mathcal {O}}(\sigma ^{-7})}$

where ${\displaystyle \sigma =2d-1}$. For 13-dimensional bond percolation, for example, the error with the measured value is less than 10⁻⁶, and these formulas can be useful for higher-dimensional systems.

In a one-dimensional chain we establish bonds between distinct sites ${\displaystyle i}$and ${\displaystyle j}$with probability ${\displaystyle p={\frac {C}{|i-j|^{1+\sigma }}}}$decaying as a power-law with an exponent ${\displaystyle \sigma >0}$. Percolation occurs at a critical value ${\displaystyle C_{c}<1}$for ${\displaystyle \sigma <1}$. The numerically determined percolation thresholds are given by:

In these lattices there may be two percolation thresholds: the lower threshold is the probability above which infinite clusters appear, and the upper is the probability above which there is a unique infinite cluster.

Note: {m,n} is the Schläfli symbol, signifying a hyperbolic lattice in which n regular m-gons meet at every vertex

For bond percolation on {P,Q}, we have by duality ${\displaystyle p_{c,\ell }(P,Q)+p_{c,u}(Q,P)=1}$. For site percolation, ${\displaystyle p_{c,\ell }(3,Q)+p_{c,u}(3,Q)=1}$because of the self-matching of triangulated lattices.

Site-bond percolation is equivalent to having different probabilities of connections:

P_0 = probability that no sites are connected

P_2 = probability that exactly one descendant is connected to the upper vertex (two connected together)

P_3 = probability that both descendants are connected to the original vertex (all three connected together)

Formulas:

P_0 = (1-p_s) + p_s(1-p_b)^2

P_2 = p_s p_b (1-p_b)
