Percolation of unfrustrated plaquettes

Abstract

The author has investigated percolation properties of unfrustrated plaquettes in the two-dimensional Ising model with nearest-neighbour bonds +or-J distributed at random. The effects of plaquette correlations are considered using a two-parameter position-space renormalisation group (PSRG) approach, and it is found (within the framework of this approximate PSRG) that this correlated site percolation problem is in the same universality class as random site percolation. The percolation threshold is then found from large-cell PSRG methods to be indistinguishable from that for randomly placed sites.

General position-space renormalisation group for correlated percolation

G. F. Tuthill, W. Klein

A position-space renormalisation group (PSRG) approach has been developed for general site percolation problems in which the site occupancies are correlated, rather than independent, random variables. PSRG parameters are systematically introduced to describe multiple-site correlations. At the two- and four-site levels of approximation in the square lattice the authors find only two physical fixed points. One characterises random, or pure, percolation and has a universality class which is shown to encompass a variety of locally correlated site problems, including unfrustrated plaquettes and four-coordinated sites in a random-bond model. The second describes 'Ising-correlated' percolation and at the two-site level yields an excellent estimate (to within 2%) for the nearest-neighbour spin correlation function of the Ising model.

Anisotropic bond percolation by position-space renormalisation group

Hisao Nakanishi, PETER J. REYNOLDS, S. Redner

Treats a percolation model with anisotropic bond occupation probabilities in order to study the crossover behaviour of the effective spatial dimension of the system. Previous position-space renormalisation group (PSRG) studies of this problem on the square lattice show a crossover from two-dimensional to pseudo-one-dimensional critical behaviour. To investigate the possible reasons for this surprising result, which is the opposite of the behaviour observed in thermal critical phenomena, the authors first develop alternative PSRG schemes. They study the predictions of these groups for asymptotically large rescaling parameters where the approximations in the PSRG are thought to become negligible. From a consideration of the approximations involved, they are led to a decimation transformation that uses an anisotropic cluster. The results of this method indicate that anisotropic percolation is in the same universality class as isotropic percolation, in complete analogy with thermal critical phenomena.

SELF-CONSISTENT CORRELATED PERCOLATION

Zhao-Qing Zhang

The critical properties of a quenched site-correlated percolation system is treated by real-space renormalization group method. We chose the nearest-neighbour short-range order a as the correlation parameter. By treating the correlated probability self-consistently, we found, in two dimension, there is only one nontrivial physical fixed point and the correlation is an irrelevant parameter at random percolation fixed point, which is consistent with other correlated percolation models.

Critical properties of the site-diluted Ising ferromagnet

Julia M. Yeomans, Robin B. Stinchcombe

The site-diluted Ising ferromagnet is treated by a position space renormalisation group method. The method is briefly outlined and results obtained by considering three different two-dimensional clusters are presented. The results include the dependence of transition temperature T c on concentration p and the thermal exponents for the percolation and Ising fixed points. Corresponding results are also presented for the bond-diluted Ising ferromagnet.

Further comments on the one-dimensional percolation problem with multineighbour bonds

T C Li, Zhao-Qing Zhang, Fei Pu

One-dimensional site and bond percolation problems with bonds connecting Lth nearest neighbours are solved exactly by using an infinite cell to cell renormalisation group transformation. Both 'thermal' and magnetic critical exponents are obtained through the scaling relations. Although universality breaks down for site and bond percolation when L>or=2, Suzuki's weaker universality (1974) still holds.
