Bootstrap percolation, a model of irreversible activation on graphs, has emerged as a pivotal area within graph theory and statistical mechanics. In this process, nodes (or vertices) on a network are ...

Different carbon nanoparticle allotropes, be it graphite nanoplatelets or carbon nanotubes, are promising candidates as filler materials for polymer composites. However, traditional composites ...

Bootstrap percolation models have been extensively studied during the two past decades. In this article, we study the following "anisotropic" bootstrap percolation model: the neighborhood of a point ...
