The hull-gradient method is used to determine the critical threshold for bond percolation on the two-dimensional Kagome lattice (and its dual, the dice lattice). For this system, the hull walk is represented as a self-avoiding trail, or mirror-model trajectory, on the (3,4,6,4)-Archimedean tiling lattice. The result (one standard deviation of error) is not consistent with previously conjectured values.

The proof of these bounds uses the substitution method, comparing the percolative behaviour of the Kagomé lattice bond model with that of the exactly solved hexagonal lattices bond model via stochastic ordering.

A Disproof of Tsallis' Bond Percolation Threshold Conjecture for the Kagome Lattice

The substitution method is used, which is based on stochastic ordering, to compare the probability distribution of connections in the homogeneous bond percolation model on the kagome lattice to those of an exactly-solved inhomogeneous bondPercolation models on the martini lattice.

Site percolation and random walks on d-dimensional Kagomé lattices

The site percolation problem is studied on d-dimensional generalizations of the Kagome lattice. These lattices are isotropic and have the same coordination number q as the hyper-cubic lattices in d…

An Investigation of Site-Bond Percolation on Many Lattices

It is shown here that there are strong deviations from the known approximate equations in the line of threshold values, and an alternative parametrization is proposed that lies much closer to the numerical values.

The amplitude of the power-law correction associated with X_{t2}=4 is found to be dependent on the orientation of the lattice with respect to the cylindrical geometry of the finite systems.
