We study the critical probability for the metastable phase transition of the two-dimensional anisotropic bootstrap percolation model with $(1,2)$-neighbourhood and threshold $r = 3$. The first order asymptotics for the critical probability were recently determined by the first and second authors. Here we determine the following sharp second and third order asymptotics: [ p_cbig( [L]^2,mathcal{N}_{(1,2)},3 big) ; = ; frac{(log log L)^2}{12log L} , - , frac{log log L , log log log L}{ 3log L} + frac{left(log frac{9}{2} + 1 pm o(1) right)log log L}{6log L}. ] We note that the second and third order terms are so large that the first order asymptotics fail to approximate $p_c$ even for lattices of size well beyond $10^{10^{1000}}$.

A bootstrap percolation process on a graph G is an infection process which evolves in rounds. Initially, there is a subset of infected nodes and in each subsequent round every uninfected node which has at least r infected neighbours becomes infected and remains so forever. The parameter r > 1 is fixed. We consider this process in the case where the underlying graph is an inhomogeneous random graph whose kernel is of rank 1. Assuming that initially every vertex is infected independently with probability p > 0, we provide a law of large numbers for the number of vertices that will have been infected by the end of the process. We also focus on a special case of such random graphs which exhibit a power-law degree distribution with exponent in (2,3). The first two authors have shown the existence of a critical function a_c(n) such that a_c(n)=o(n) with the following property. Let n be the number of vertices of the underlying random graph and let a(n) be the number of the vertices that are initially infected. Assume that a set of a(n) vertices is chosen randomly and becomes externally infected. If a(n) << a_c(n), then the process does not evolve at all, with high probability as n grows, whereas if a(n)>> a_c(n), then with high probability the final set of infected vertices is linear. Using the techniques of the previous theorem, we give the precise asymptotic fraction of vertices which will be eventually infected when a(n) >> a_c (n) but a(n) = o(n). Note that this corresponds to the case where p approaches 0.
In the polluted bootstrap percolation model, vertices of the cubic lattice $mathbb{Z}^3$ are independently declared initially occupied with probability $p$ or closed with probability $q$. Under the standard (respectively, modified) bootstrap rule, a vertex becomes occupied at a subsequent step if it is not closed and it has at least $3$ occupied neighbors (respectively, an occupied neighbor in each coordinate). We study the final density of occupied vertices as $p,qto 0$. We show that this density converges to $1$ if $q ll p^3(log p^{-1})^{-3}$ for both standard and modified rules. Our principal result is a complementary bound with a matching power for the modified model: there exists $C$ such that the final density converges to $0$ if $q > Cp^3$. For the standard model, we establish convergence to $0$ under the stronger condition $q>Cp^2$.
A bootstrap percolation process on a graph $G$ is an infection process which evolves in rounds. Initially, there is a subset of infected nodes and in each subsequent round each uninfected node which has at least $r$ infected neighbours becomes infect ed and remains so forever. The parameter $rgeq 2$ is fixed. Such processes have been used as models for the spread of ideas or trends within a network of individuals. We analyse bootstrap percolation process in the case where the underlying graph is an inhomogeneous random graph, which exhibits a power-law degree distribution, and initially there are $a(n)$ randomly infected nodes. The main focus of this paper is the number of vertices that will have been infected by the end of the process. The main result of this work is that if the degree sequence of the random graph follows a power law with exponent $beta$, where $2 < beta < 3$, then a sublinear number of initially infected vertices is enough to spread the infection over a linear fraction of the nodes of the random graph, with high probability. More specifically, we determine explicitly a critical function $a_c(n)$ such that $a_c(n)=o(n)$ with the following property. Assuming that $n$ is the number of vertices of the underlying random graph, if $a(n) ll a_c(n)$, then the process does not evolve at all, with high probability as $n$ grows, whereas if $a(n)gg a_c(n)$, then there is a constant $eps>0$ such that, with high probability, the final set of infected vertices has size at least $eps n$. It turns out that when the maximum degree is $o(n^{1/(beta -1)})$, then $a_c(n)$ depends also on $r$. But when the maximum degree is $Theta (n^{1/(beta -1)})$, then $a_c (n)=n^{beta -2 over beta -1}$.

Bootstrap percolation is an often used model to study the spread of diseases, rumors, and information on sparse random graphs. The percolation process demonstrates a critical value such that the graph is either almost completely affected or almost co mpletely unaffected based on the initial seed being larger or smaller than the critical value. To analyze intervention strategies we provide the first analytic determination of the critical value for basic bootstrap percolation in random graphs when the vertex thresholds are nonuniform and provide an efficient algorithm. This result also helps solve the problem of Percolation with Coinflips when the infection process is not deterministic, which has been a criticism about the model. We also extend the results to clustered random graphs thereby extending the classes of graphs considered. In these graphs the vertices are grouped in a small number of clusters, the clusters model a fixed communication network and the edge probability is dependent if the vertices are in close or far clusters. We present simulations for both basic percolation and interventions that support our theoretical results.
In bootstrap percolation it is known that the critical percolation threshold tends to converge slowly to zero with increasing system size, or, inversely, the critical size diverges fast when the percolation probability goes to zero. To obtain higher- order terms (that is, sharp and sharper thresholds) for the percolation threshold in general is a hard question. In the case of two-dimensional anisotropic models, sometimes correction terms can be obtained from inversion in a relatively simple manner.
