The stacked triangular lattice has the shape of a triangular prism. In spite of being considered frequently in solid state physics and materials science, its percolation properties have received few attention. We investigate several non-universal percolation properties on this lattice using Monte Carlo simulation. We show that the percolation threshold is $p_c^\text{bond}=0.186\;02\pm0.000\;02$ for bonds and $p_c^\text{site}=0.262\;40\pm0.000\;05$ for sites. The number of clusters at the threshold per site is $n_c^\text{bond}=0.284\;58\pm0.000\;05$ and $n_c^\text{site}=0.039\;98\pm0.000\;05$. The stacked triangular lattice is a convenient choice to study the RGB model [Sci. Rep. {\bf 2}, 751 (2012)]. We present results on this model and its scaling behavior at the percolation threshold.
We study the spin stiffness of stacked triangular antiferromagnets using both heat bath and broad histogram Monte Carlo methods. Our results are consistent with a continuous transition belonging to the chiral universality class first proposed by Kawamura.
We show in this paper by using the Wang-Landau flat-histogram Monte Carlo method that the phase transition in the XY stacked triangular antiferromagnet is clearly of first-order, confirming results from latest Monte Carlo simulation and from a nonperturbative renormalization group, putting an end to a long-standing controversial issue.
We study the reductions of spin values of the ground state on a stacked triangular antiferromagnet using the spin-wave approach. We find that the spin reductions have sublattice asymmetry due to the cancellation of the molecular field. The sublattice asymmetry qualitatively analyzes the NMR results of CsCoBr$_3$.
By using the Wang-Landau flat-histogram Monte Carlo (MC) method for very large lattice sizes never simulated before, we show that the phase transition in the frustrated Heisenberg stacked triangular antiferromagnet is of first-order, contrary to results of earlier MC simulations using old-fashioned methods. Our result lends support to the conclusion of a nonperturbative renormalization group performed on an effective Hamiltonian. It puts an end to a 20-year long controversial issue.
An Ising antiferromagnet on a stacked triangular lattice in zero field is studied by Monte Carlo simulations, focusing on the character of the low-temperature phase and the effect of the relative strength of the exchange interaction in the stacking direction α. Our results support the presence of the 3D Wannier phase, with the sublattice magnetization structure (m, -m, 0) and power-law decaying m with the lattice size. The extent of this low-temperature phase shrinks with decreasing α, however, it appears even at very low values if it is accessed from higher temperatures by sufficiently slow c…
``Chirality'' is a multispin quantity representing the sense or the handedness of the noncollinear spin structures induced by spin frustration. Recent studies have revealed that the chirality often plays an important role in the ordering of certain frustrated magnets. Here I take up two such examples, stacked-triangular antiferromagnets and spin glasses, where the inherent chiral degree of freedom affects underlying physics and might lead to novel ordering phenomena. The first topic is the criticality of the magnetic phase transition of vector (i.e., XY or Heisenberg) antiferromagnets on the t…
We study a stacked triangular lattice Ising model with both intra- and inter-plane antiferromagnetic interactions in a field, by Monte Carlo simulation. We find only one phase transition from a paramagnetic to a partially disordered phase, which is of second order and 3D XY universality class. At low temperatures we identify two highly degenerate phases: at smaller (larger) fields the system shows long-range ordering in the stacking direction (within planes) but not in the planes (stacking direction). Nevertheless, crossovers to these phases do not have a character of conventional phase transi…
We study low-temperature magnetization processes in a stacked triangular Ising antiferromagnet by Monte Carlo simulations. In increasing and decreasing magnetic fields we observe multiple steps and hysteresis corresponding to formation of different metastable states. Besides the equidistant threefold splitting of the 1/3 ferrimagnetic plateau, we additionally confirm a fourth plateau in the field-increasing branch and a sizable remanence when the field is decreased to zero. The newly observed plateau only appears at sufficiently low temperature and sufficiently large exchange interaction in th…
Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling analysis have been performed to study the jamming and percolation behavior of linear $k$-mers (also known as rods or needles) on the two-dimensional triangular lattice, considering an isotropic RSA process on a lattice of linear dimension $L$ and periodic boundary conditions. Extensive numerical work has been done to extend previous studies to larger system sizes and longer $k$-mers, which enables the confirmation of a nonmonotonic size dependence of the percolation threshold and the estimation of a maximum value of $k$ from which percolation wou…
We study the ordered phases and the phase transitions in the stacked triangular antiferromagnetic Ising (STAFI) model with strong interplane coupling modeling CsCoCl$_3$ and CsCoBr$_3$. We find that there exists an intermediate phase which consists of a single phase of so-called partial disordered (PD) type, and confirm the stability of this phase. The low temperature phase of this model is so-called two-sublattice ferri magnetic phase. The phase transition between the PD phase and two-sublattice ferri magnetic phase is of the first order. This sequence of the phases is homomorphic as that in …
We determine thresholds $p_c$ for random-site percolation on a triangular lattice for all available neighborhoods containing sites from the first to the fifth coordination zones, including their complex combinations. There are 31 distinct neighbourhoods. The dependence of the value of the percolation thresholds $p_c$ on the coordination number $z$ are tested against various theoretical predictions. The newly proposed single scalar index $ξ=\sum_i z_ir_i^2/i$ (depending on the coordination zone number $i$, the neighbourhood coordination number $z$ and the square-distance $r^2$ to sites in $i$-t…
We study directed rigidity percolation (equivalent to directed bootstrap percolation) on three different lattices: square, triangular, and augmented triangular. The first two of these display a first-order transition at p=1, while the augmented triangular lattice shows a continuous transition at a non-trivial p_c. On the augmented triangular lattice we find, by extensive numerical simulation, that the directed rigidity percolation transition belongs to the same universality class as directed percolation. The same conclusion is reached by studying its surface critical behavior, i.e. the spreadi…
We study multilayer triangular lattice Ising antiferromagnets with interlayer interactions that are weak and frustrated in an abc stacking. By analysing a coupled height model description of these systems, we show that they exhibit a classical spin liquid regime at low temperature, in which both intralayer and interlayer correlations are strong but there is no long range order. Diffuse scattering in this regime is concentrated on a helix in reciprocal space, as observed for charge-ordering in the materials LuFe$_2$O$_4$ and YbFe$_2$O$_4$.
The quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the stacked triangular lattice with the intralayer nearest-neighbor exchange interaction J and interlayer exchange J' is considered within the non-linear $σ$-model with the use of the renormalization group (RG) approach. For J' << J the asymptotic formula for the Neel temperature $T_{Neel}$ and sublattice magnetization are obtained. RG turns out to be insufficient to describe experimental data since it does not take into account the $\mathcal{Z}_2$-vortices. Therefore $T_{Neel}$ is estimated using the Monte-Carlo result for the 2D correlation length [1…
We study percolation and the random cluster model on the triangular lattice with 3-body interactions. Starting with percolation, we generalize the star--triangle transformation: We introduce a new parameter (the 3-body term) and identify configurations on the triangles solely by their connectivity. In this new setup, necessary and sufficient conditions are found for positive correlations and this is used to establish regions of percolation and non-percolation. Next we apply this set of ideas to the $q>1$ random cluster model: We derive duality relations for the suitable random cluster measures…
We study the phase transition behavior of a frustrated Heisenberg model on a stacked triangular lattice by Monte Carlo simulations. The model has three types of interactions: the ferromagnetic nearest-neighbor interaction $J_1$ and antiferromagnetic third nearest-neighbor interaction $J_3$ in each triangular layer and the ferromagnetic interlayer interaction $J_\perp$. Frustration comes from the intralayer interactions $J_1$ and $J_3$. We focus on the case that the order parameter space is SO(3)$\times C_3$. We find that the model exhibits a first-order phase transition with breaking of the SO…
With the help of the improved Monte Carlo renormalization-group scheme, we numerically investigate the renormalization group flow of the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg and XY spin model on the stacked triangular lattice (STA-model) and its effective Hamiltonian, 2N-component chiral $ϕ^4$ model which is used in the field-theoretical studies. We find that the XY-STA model with the lattice size $126\times 144 \times 126$ exhibits clear first-order behavior. We also find that the renormalization-group flow of STA model is well reproduced by the chiral $ϕ^4$ model, and that there are no chiral fixed …
We study in this paper the Blume-Emery-Griffiths model in a thin film of stacked triangular lattices.The model is described by three parameters: bilinear exchange interaction between spins $J$, quadratic exchange interaction $K$ and single-ion anisotropy $D$. The spin $S\_i$ at the lattice site $i$ takes three values $(-1,0,+1)$.This model can describe the mixing phase of He-4 ($S\_i =+1,-1$) and He-3 ($S\_i =0$) at low temperatures.Using Monte Carlo simulations, we show that there exists a critical value of $D$ below (above) which the transition is of second-(first-)order.In general, the temp…
Directed spiral percolation (DSP), percolation under both directional and rotational constraints, is studied on the triangular lattice in two dimensions (2D). The results are compared with that of the 2D square lattice. Clusters generated in this model are generally rarefied and have chiral dangling ends on both the square and triangular lattices. It is found that the clusters are more compact and less anisotropic on the triangular lattice than on the square lattice. The elongation of the clusters is in a different direction than the imposed directional constraint on both the lattices. The val…
We consider the Potts model and the related bond, site, and mixed site-bond percolation problems on triangular-type and kagome-type lattices, and derive closed-form expressions for the critical frontier. For triangular-type lattices the critical frontier is known, usually derived from a duality consideration in conjunction with the assumption of a unique transition. Our analysis, however, is rigorous and based on an established result without the need of a uniqueness assumption, thus firmly establishing all derived results. For kagome-type lattices the exact critical frontier is not known. We …
Critical properties of hulls of directed spiral percolation (DSP) clusters are studied on the square and triangular lattices in two dimensions (2D). The hull fractal dimension ($d_H$) and some of the critical exponents associated with different moments of the hull size distribution function of the anisotropic DSP clusters are reported here. The values of $d_H$ and other critical exponents are found the same within error bars on both the lattices. The universality of the hull's critical exponents then holds true between the square and triangular lattices in 2D unlike the cluster's critical expo…
The percolation behavior of aligned rigid rods of length $k$ ($k$-mers) on two-dimensional triangular lattices has been studied by numerical simulations and finite-size scaling analysis. The $k$-mers, containing $k$ identical units (each one occupying a lattice site), were irreversibly deposited along one of the directions of the lattice. The connectivity analysis was carried out by following the probability $R_{L,k}(p)$ that a lattice composed of $L \times L$ sites percolates at a concentration $p$ of sites occupied by particles of size $k$. The results, obtained for $k$ ranging from 2 to 80,…
We determine thresholds $p_c$ for random site percolation on a triangular lattice for neighbourhoods containing nearest (NN), next-nearest (2NN), next-next-nearest (3NN), next-next-next-nearest (4NN) and next-next-next-next-nearest (5NN) neighbours, and their combinations forming regular hexagons (3NN+2NN+NN, 5NN+4NN+NN, 5NN+4NN+3NN+2NN, 5NN+4NN+3NN+2NN+NN). We use a fast Monte Carlo algorithm, by Newman and Ziff [M. E. J. Newman and R. M. Ziff, Physical Review E 64, 016706 (2001)], for obtaining the dependence of the largest cluster size on occupation probability. The method is combined with …
Covering a graph or a lattice with non-overlapping dimers is a problem that has received considerable interest in areas such as discrete mathematics, statistical physics, chemistry and materials science. Yet, the problem of percolation on dimer-covered lattices has received little attention. In particular, percolation on lattices that are fully covered by non-overlapping dimers has not evidently been considered. Here, we propose a novel procedure for generating random dimer coverings of a given lattice. We then compute the bond percolation threshold on random and ordered coverings of the squar…
We study the agglomerative percolation (AP) models on the Bethe lattice and the triangular cactus to establish the exact mean-field theory for AP. Using the self-consistent simulation method, based on the exact self-consistent equation, we directly measure the order parameter $P_{\infty}$ and average cluster size $S$. From the measured $P_{\infty}$ and $S$ we obtain the critical exponents $β_k$ and $γ_k$ for $k=2$ and 3. Here $β_k$ and $γ_k$ are the critical exponents for $P_\infty$ and $S$ when the growth of clusters spontaneously breaks the $Z_k$ symmetry of the $k$-partite graph (Lau, Paczu…
In a recent paper (arXiv:0911.2514), one of us (FYW) considered the Potts model and bond and site percolation on two general classes of two-dimensional lattices, the triangular-type and kagome-type lattices, and obtained closed-form expressions for the critical frontier with applications to various lattice models. For the triangular-type lattices Wu's result is exact, and for the kagome-type lattices Wu's expression is under a homogeneity assumption. The purpose of the present paper is two-fold: First, an essential step in Wu's analysis is the derivation of lattice-dependent constants $A, B, C…
Numerical simulations and finite-size scaling analysis have been carried out to study standard and inverse percolation of straight rigid rods on triangular lattices. In the case of standard (inverse) percolation, the lattice is initially empty(occupied) and linear $k$-mers ($k$ linear consecutive sites) are randomly and sequentially deposited on(removed from) the lattice, considering an isotropic and nematic scheme. The study is conducted by following the behavior of four critical concentrations with the size $k$, determined for a wide range of $k$ : $(i)$[$(ii)$] standard isotropic[nematic] p…
We study Ising antiferromagnets that have nearest-neighbour interactions on multilayer triangular lattices with frustrated ($abc$ and $abab$) stacking, and make comparisons with the unfrustrated ($aaa$) stacking. If interlayer couplings are much weaker than in-plane ones, the paramagnetic phase of models with frustrated stackings has a classical spin-liquid regime at low temperature, in which correlations are strong both within and between planes, but there is no long-range order. We investigate this regime using Monte Carlo simulations and by mapping the spin models to coupled height models, …
Mitra et al. [Phys. Rev. E 99 (2019) 012117] proposed a new percolation model that includes distortion in the square lattice and concluded that it may belong to the same universality class as the ordinary percolation. But the conclusion is questionable since their results of critical exponents are not consistent. In this paper, we reexamined the new model with high precision in the square, triangular, and honeycomb lattices by using the Newman-Ziff algorithm. Through the finite-size scaling, we obtained the percolation threshold of the infinite-size lattice and critical exponents ($ν$ and $β$)…
We investigate bond- and site-percolation models on several two-dimensional lattices numerically, by means of transfer-matrix calculations and Monte Carlo simulations. The lattices include the square, triangular, honeycomb kagome and diced lattices with nearest-neighbor bonds, and the square lattice with nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor bonds. Results are presented for the bond-percolation thresholds of the kagome and diced lattices, and the site-percolation thresholds of the square, honeycomb and diced lattices. We also include the bond- and site-percolation thresholds for the square lattic…
We use very efficient algorithms to calculate low-density series for bond and site percolation on the directed triangular, honeycomb, kagomé, and $(4.8^2)$ lattices. Analysis of the series yields accurate estimates of the critical point $p_c$ and various critical exponents. The exponent estimates differ only in the $5^{th}$ digit, thus providing strong numerical evidence for the expected universality of the critical exponents for directed percolation problems. In addition we also study the non-physical singularities of the series.
We study site percolation on lattices confined to a semi-infinite strip. For triangular and square lattices we find that the probability that a cluster touches the three sides of such a system at the percolation threshold has the continuous limit 1/2 and argue that this limit is universal for planar systems. This value is also expected to hold for finite systems for any self-matching lattice. We attribute this result to the asymptotic symmetry of the separation lines between alternating spanning clusters of occupied and unoccupied sites formed on the original and matching lattice, respectively…
We study a process termed "agglomerative percolation" (AP) in two dimensions. Instead of adding sites or bonds at random, in AP randomly chosen clusters are linked to all their neighbors. As a result the growth process involves a diverging length scale near a critical point. Picking target clusters with probability proportional to their mass leads to a runaway compact cluster. Choosing all clusters equally leads to a continuous transition in a new universality class for the square lattice, while the transition on the triangular lattice has the same critical exponents as ordinary percolation.
Restricted-valence random sequential adsorption~(RSA) is studied in its pure and disordered versions, on the square and triangular lattices. For the simplest case~(pure on the square lattice) we prove the absence of percolation for maximum valence $V_{\rm max}=2$. In other cases, Monte Carlo simulations are used to investigate the percolation threshold, universality class, and jamming limit. Our results reveal a continuous transition for the majority of the cases studied. The percolation threshold is computed through finite-size scaling analysis of seven properties; its value increases with th…
We prove Cardy's formula for rectangular crossing probabilities in dependent site percolation models that arise from a deterministic cellular automaton with a random initial state. The cellular automaton corresponds to the zero-temperature case of Domany's stochastic Ising ferromagnet on the hexagonal lattice H (with alternating updates of two sublattices); it may also be realized on the triangular lattice T with flips when a site disagrees with six, five and sometimes four of its six neighbors.
We study the possibility of long-range ordering (LRO) in a 3D system of vertically stacked layers of Ising antiferromagnet on a kagome lattice (SIAKL). Monte Carlo simulations are carried out for a varying interlayer coupling strength and a finite-size scaling analysis is performed for selected cases. Unlike in the related Ising system on a triangular lattice, in which even a finite number of the layers can stabilize LRO, or the Heisenberg system on the same kagome lattice, in which LRO emerged in 3D for a sufficient strength of the interlayer coupling, no LRO could be observed in the present …
In the present paper, the connection between surface order-disorder phase transitions and the percolating properties of the adsorbed phase has been studied. For this purpose, four lattice-gas models in presence of repulsive interactions have been considered. Namely, monomers on honeycomb, square and triangular lattices, and dimers (particles occupying two adjacent adsorption sites) on square substrates. By using Monte Carlo simulation and finite-size scaling analysis, we obtain the percolation threshold $θ_c$ of the adlayer, which presents an interesting dependence with $w/k_BT$ (being $w$, $k…
We study families of dependent site percolation models on the triangular lattice ${\mathbb T}$ and hexagonal lattice ${\mathbb H}$ that arise by applying certain cellular automata to independent percolation configurations. We analyze the scaling limit of such models and show that the distance between macroscopic portions of cluster boundaries of any two percolation models within one of our families goes to zero almost surely in the scaling limit. It follows that each of these cellular automaton generated dependent percolation models has the same scaling limit (in the sense of Aizenman-Burchard…
Ordinary bond percolation (OP) can be viewed as a process where clusters grow by joining them pairwise, by adding links chosen randomly one by one from a set of predefined `virtual' links. In contrast, in agglomerative percolation (AP) clusters grow by choosing randomly a `target cluster' and joining it with all its neighbors, as defined by the same set of virtual links. Previous studies showed that AP is in different universality classes from OP for several types of (virtual) networks (linear chains, trees, Erdos-Renyi networks), but most surprising were the results for 2-d lattices: While AP…
A general method is proposed for predicting the asymptotic percolation threshold of networks with bottlenecks, in the limit that the sub-net mesh size goes to zero. The validity of this method is tested for bond percolation on filled checkerboard and "stack-of-triangle" lattices. Thresholds for the checkerboard lattices of different mesh sizes are estimated using the gradient percolation method, while for the triangular system they are found exactly using the triangle-triangle transformation. The values of the thresholds approach the asymptotic values of 0.64222 and 0.53993 respectively as the…
We present exact calculations of the average number of connected clusters per site, $<k>$, as a function of bond occupation probability $p$, for the bond percolation problem on infinite-length strips of finite width $L_y$, of the square, triangular, honeycomb, and kagomé lattices $Λ$ with various boundary conditions. These are used to study the approach of $<k>$, for a given $p$ and $Λ$, to its value on the two-dimensional lattice as the strip width increases. We investigate the singularities of $<k>$ in the complex $p$ plane and their influence on the radii of convergence of the Taylor series…
We derive the critical nearest-neighbor connectivity $g_n$ as $3/4$, $3(7-9p_c^{tri})/[4(5-4p_c^{tri})]$, and $3(2+7p_c^{tri})/[4(5-p_c^{tri})]$ for bond percolation on the square, honeycomb and triangular lattice respectively, where $p_c^{tri}=2\sin(π/18)$ is the percolation threshold for the triangular lattice; and confirm these values via Monte Carlo simulations. On the square lattice, we also numerically determine the critical next-nearest-neighbor connectivity as $g_{nn}=0.687\;500\;0(2)$, which confirms a conjecture by Mitra and Nienhuis in J. Stat. Mech. P10006 (2004), implying the exac…
Three-dimensional three-colour percolation on a lattice made of tetrahedra is a direct generalization of two-dimensional two-colour percolation on the triangular lattice. The interfaces between one-colour clusters are made of bicolour surfaces and tricolour non-intersecting and non-self-intersecting curves. Because of the three-dimensional space, these curves describe knots and links. The present paper presents a construction of such random knots using particular boundary conditions and a numerical study of some invariants of the knots. The results are sources of precise conjectures about the …
Recently Grassberger has shown that the correction to scaling for the conductance of a bond percolation network on a square lattice is a nonmonotonic function of the linear lattice dimension with a minimum at $L = 10$, while this anomalous behavior is not present in the site percolation networks. We perform a high precision numerical study of the bond percolation random resistor networks on the square, triangular and honeycomb lattices to further examine this result. We use the arithmetic, geometric and harmonic means to obtain the conductance and find that the qualitative behavior does not ch…
We consider critical percolation on the triangular lattice in a bounded simply connected domain with boundary conditions that force an interface between two prescribed boundary points. We say the interface forms a "near-loop" when it comes within one lattice spacing of itself. We define a new curve by erasing these near-loops as we traverse the interface. Our Monte Carlo simulations of this model lead us to conclude that the scaling limit of this loop-erased percolation interface is conformally invariant and has fractal dimension 4/3. However, it is not SLE_8/3. We also consider the process in…
We study the triangular lattice Ising model with a finite number of vertically stacked layers and demonstrate a low temperature reentrance of two Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transitions, which results in an extended disordered regime down to $T=0$. Numerical results are complemented with the derivation of an effective low-temperature dimer theory. Contrary to order by disorder, we present a new scenario for fluctuation-induced ordering in frustrated spin systems. While short-range spin-spin correlations are enhanced by fluctuations, quasi-long-range ordering is precluded at low enough temp…
The site percolation threshold for the random Voronoi network is determined numerically for the first time, with the result p_c = 0.71410 +/- 0.00002, using Monte-Carlo simulation on periodic systems of up to 40000 sites. The result is very close to the recent theoretical estimate p_c = 0.7151 of Neher, Mecke, and Wagner. For the bond threshold on the Voronoi network, we find p_c = 0.666931 +/- 0.000005, implying that for its dual, the Delaunay triangulation, p_c = 0.333069 +/- 0.000005. These results rule out the conjecture by Hsu and Huang that the bond thresholds are 2/3 and 1/3 respectivel…
The behavior of two-dimensional Ising spin glasses at the multicritical point on triangular and honeycomb lattices is investigated, with the help of finite-size scaling and conformal-invariance concepts. We use transfer-matrix methods on long strips to calculate domain-wall energies, uniform susceptibilities, and spin-spin correlation functions. Accurate estimates are provided for the location of the multicritical point on both lattices, which lend strong support to a conjecture recently advanced by Takeda, Sasamoto, and Nishimori. Correlation functions are shown to obey rather strict conforma…
We study a percolation problem based on critical loop configurations of the O($n$) loop model on the honeycomb lattice. We define dual clusters as groups of sites on the dual triangular lattice that are not separated by a loop, and investigate the the bond-percolation properties of these dual clusters. The universal properties at the percolation threshold are argued to match those of Kasteleyn-Fortuin random clusters in the critical Potts model. This relation is checked numerically by means of cluster simulations of several O($n$) models in the range $1\leq n \leq 2$. The simulation results in…
The antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on a stacked triangular geometry with a finite number of layers is studied using Monte Carlo methods. A topological phase transition occurs at finite temperature for all film thicknesses. Our results indicate that topological excitations are important for a complete understanding of the critical properties of the model between two and three dimensions.
Recent experimental results for covalent glasses suggest the existence of an intermediate phase attributed to the self-organization of the glass network resulting from the tendency to minimize its internal stress. However, the exact nature of this experimentally measured phase remains unclear. We modify a previously proposed model of self-organization by generating a uniform sampling of stress-free networks. In our model, studied on a diluted triangular lattice, an unusual intermediate phase appears, in which both rigid and floppy networks have a chance to occur, a result also observed in a re…
The conjectured exact percolation thresholds of the Fortuin-Kasteleyn cluster for the +-J Ising spin glass model are theoretically shown based on a conjecture. It is pointed out that the percolation transition of the Fortuin-Kasteleyn cluster for the spin glass model is related to a dynamical transition for the freezing of spins. The present results are obtained as locations of points on the so-called Nishimori line, which is a special line in the phase diagram. We obtain TFK = 2 / ln [z / (z - 2)] and pFK = z / [2 (z - 1)] for the Bethe lattice, TFK -> infinity and pFK -> 1 / 2 for the infini…
