Abstract
We study critical hysteresis in the random-field Ising model on a two-dimensional periodic lattice with a variable coordination number ${z}_{\mathrm{eff}}$ in the range $3\ensuremath{\le}{z}_{\mathrm{eff}}\ensuremath{\le}6$. We find that the model supports critical behavior in the range $4<{z}_{\mathrm{eff}}\ensuremath{\le}6$, but the critical exponents are independent of ${z}_{\mathrm{eff}}$. The result is discussed in the context of the universality of nonequilibrium critical phenomena and extant results in the field.
