We introduce a correlated static model and investigate a percolation transition. The model is a modification of the static model and is characterized by assortative degree-degree correlation. As one varies the edge density, the network undergoes a percolation transition. The percolation transition is characterized by a weak singular behavior of the mean cluster size and power-law scalings of the percolation order parameter and the cluster size distribution in the entire non-percolating phase. These results suggest that the assortative degree-degree correlation generates a global structural correlation which is relevant to the percolation critical phenomena of complex networks.

Cluster concepts have been extremely useful in elucidating many problems in physics. Percolation theory provides a generic framework to study the behavior of the cluster distribution. In most cases the theory predicts a geometrical transition at the percolation threshold, characterized in the percolative phase by the presence of a spanning cluster, which becomes infinite in the thermodynamic limit. Standard percolation usually deals with the problem when the constitutive elements of the clusters are randomly distributed. However correlations cannot always be neglected. In this case correlated percolation is the appropriate theory to study such systems. The origin of correlated percolation could be dated back to 1937 when Mayer [1] proposed a theory to describe the condensation from a gas to a liquid in terms of mathematical clusters (for a review of cluster theory in simple fluids see [2]). The location for the divergence of the size of these clusters was interpreted as the condensation transition from a gas to a liquid. One of the major drawback of the theory was that the cluster number for some values of thermodynamic parameters could become negative. As a consequence the clusters did not have any physical interpretation [3]. This theory was followed by Frenkels phenomenological model [4], in which the fluid was considered as made of non interacting physical clusters with a given free energy. This model was later improved by Fisher [3], who proposed a different free energy for the clusters, now called droplets, and consequently a different scaling form for the droplet size distribution. This distribution, which depends on two geometrical parameters, has the nice feature that the mean droplet size exhibits a divergence at the liquid-gas critical point.
Two distinct transition points have been observed in a problem of lattice percolation studied using a system of pulsating discs. Sites on a regular lattice are occupied by circular discs whose radii vary sinusoidally within $[0,R_0]$ starting from a random distribution of phase angles. A lattice bond is said to be connected when its two end discs overlap with each other. Depending on the difference of the phase angles of these discs a bond may be termed as dead or live. While a dead bond can never be connected, a live bond is connected at least once in a complete time period. Two different time scales can be associated with such a system, leading to two transition points. Namely, a percolation transition occurs at $R_{0c} =0.908$ when a spanning cluster of connected bonds emerges in the system. Here, information propagates across the system instantly, i.e., with infinite speed. Secondly, there exists another transition point $R_0^* = 0.5907$ where the giant cluster of live bonds spans the lattice. In this case the information takes finite time to propagate across the system through the dynamical evolution of finite size clusters. This passage time diverges as $R_0 to R_0^*$ from above. Both the transitions exhibit the critical behavior of ordinary percolation transition. The entire scenario is robust with respect to the distribution of frequencies of the individual discs. This study may be relevant in the context of wireless sensor networks.
We reconsider the problem of percolation on an equilibrium random network with degree-degree correlations between nearest-neighboring vertices focusing on critical singularities at a percolation threshold. We obtain criteria for degree-degree correla tions to be irrelevant for critical singularities. We present examples of networks in which assortative and disassortative mixing leads to unusual percolation properties and new critical exponents.

Discontinuous transition is observed in the equilibrium cluster properties of a percolation model with suppressed cluster growth as the growth parameter g0 is tuned to the critical threshold at sufficiently low initial seed concentration rho in contr ast to the previously reported results on non- equilibrium growth models. In the present model, the growth process follows all the criteria of the original percolation model except continuously updated occupation probability of the lattice sites that suppresses the growth of a cluster according to its size. As rho varied from higher values to smaller values, a line of continuous transition points encounters a coexistence region of spanning and non- spanning large clusters. At sufficiently small values of rho (less equal 0.05), the growth parameter g0 exceeds the usual percolation threshold and generates compact spanning clusters leading to discontinuous transitions.
We present results of numerical and experimental investigation of the electric breakage of a cellular material in pulsed electric fields (PEF). The numerical model simulates the conductive properties of a cellular material by a two-dimensional array of biological cells. The application of an external field in the form of the idealised square pulse sequence with a pulse duration $t_{i}$, and a pulse repetition time $Delta t$ is assumed. The simulation model includes the known mechanisms of temporal and spatial evolution of the conductive properties of different microstructural elements in a tissue. The kinetics of breakage at different values of electric field strength $E$, $t_{i}$ and $Delta t$ was studied in experimental investigation. We propose the hypothesis for the nature of tissue properties evolution after PEF treatment and consider this phenomena as a correlated percolation, which is governed by two key processes: resealing of cells and moisture transfer processes inside the cellular structure. The breakage kinetics was shown to be very sensitive to the repetition times $Delta t$ of the PEF treatment. We observed correlated percolation patterns in a case when $Delta t$ exceeds the characteristic time of the processes of moisture transfer and random percolation patterns in other cases. The long-term mode of the pulse repetition times in PEF treatment allows us to visualize experimentally the macroscopic percolation channels in the sample.
