Abstract
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 nontrivial p(c). On the augmented triangular lattice we find, by extensive numerical simulation, that the the directed rigidity percolation transition belongs to the same universality class as the directed percolation. The same conclusion is reached by studying its surface critical behavior, i.e., the spreading of rigidity from finite clusters close to a nonrigid wall. Near the discontinuous transition at p=1 on the triangular lattice, we are able to calculate the finite-size behavior of the density of rigid sites analytically. Our results are confirmed by numerical simulation.
