Site percolation on lattices with low average coordination numbers

Abstract
We present a study of site and bond percolation on periodic lattices with (on average) fewer than three nearest neighbors per site. We have studied this issue in two contexts: By simulating oxides with a mixture of 2-coordinated and higher-coordinated sites, and by mapping site-bond percolation results onto a site model with mixed coordination number. Our results show that a conjectured power-law relationship between coordination number and site percolation threshold holds approximately if the coordination number is defined as the average number of connections available between high-coordinated sites, and suggest that the conjectured power-law relationship reflects a real phenomenon requiring further study. The solution may be to modify the power-law relationship to be an implicit formula for percolation threshold, one that takes into account aspects of the lattice beyond spatial dimension and average coordination number.
