On the surface properties of two-dimensional percolation clusters

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: The two-dimensional site percolation problem is studied by transfer-matrix methods on finite-width strips with free boundary conditions. The relationship between correlation-length amplitudes and critical indices, predicted by conformal invariance, allows a very precise determination of the surface decay-of-correlations exponent, etas=0.6664pm0.0008, consistent with the analytical value etas=2/3. It is found that a special transition does not occur in the case, corroborating earlier series results. At the ordinary transition, numerical estimates are consistent with the exact value ys=−1 for the irrelevant exponent.
