Extended-range percolation in five dimensions

Abstract

Percolation on a five-dimensional simple hypercubic (sc(5)) lattice with extended neighborhoods is investigated by means of extensive Monte Carlo simulations, using an effective single-cluster growth algorithm. The critical exponents, including $τ$ and $Ω$, the asymptotic behavior of the threshold $p_c$ and its dependence on coordination number $z$ are investigated. Using the bond and site percolation thresholds $p_c = 0.11817145(3)$ and $0.14079633(4)$ respectively given by Mertens and Moore [Phys. Rev. E 98, 022120 (2018)], we find critical exponents of $τ= 2.4177(3)$, $Ω= 0.27(2)$ through a self-consistent process. The value of $τ$ compares favorably with a recent five-loop renormalization predictions $2.4175(2)$ by Borinsky et al. [Phys. Rev. D 103, 116024 (2021)], the value 2.4180(6) that follows from the work of Zhang et al. [Physica A 580, 126124 (2021)], and the measurement of $2.419(1)$ by Mertens and Moore. We also confirmed the bond threshold, finding $p_c = 0.11817150(5)$. sc(5) lattices with extended neighborhoods up to 7th nearest neighbors are studied for both bond and site percolation. Employing the values of $τ$ and $Ω$ mentioned above, thresholds are found to high precision. For bond percolation, the asymptotic value of $zp_c$ tends to Bethe-lattice behavior ($z p_c \sim 1$), and the finite-$z$ correction is found to be consistent with both and $zp_{c} - 1 \sim a_1 z^{-0.88}$ and $zp_{c} - 1 \sim a_0(3 + \ln z)/z$. For site percolation, the asymptotic analysis is close to the predicted behavior $zp_c \sim 32η_c = 1.742(2)$ for large $z$, where $η_c = 0.05443(7)$ is the continuum percolation threshold of five-dimensional hyperspheres given by Torquato and Jiao [J. Chem. Phys 137, 074106 (2015)]; finite-$z$ corrections are accounted for by taking $p_c \approx c/(z + b)$ with $c=1.722(7)$ and $b=1$.

Information geometry of perturbed gradient flow systems on hypergraphs: A perspective towards nonequilibrium physics

This article serves to concisely review the link between gradient flow systems on hypergraphs and information geometry which has been established within the last five years. Gradient flow systems describe a wealth of physical phenomena and provide powerful analytical technquies which are based on the variational energy-dissipation principle. Modern nonequilbrium physics has complemented this classical principle with thermodynamic uncertaintly relations, speed limits, entropy production rate decompositions, and many more. In this article, we formulate these modern principles within the framework of perturbed gradient flow systems on hypergraphs. In particular, we discuss the geometry induced by the Bregman divergence, the physical implications of dual foliations, as well as the corresponding infinitesimal Riemannian geometry for gradient flow systems. Through the geometrical perspective, we are naturally led to new concepts such as moduli spaces for perturbed gradient flow systems and thermodynamical area which is crucial for understanding speed limits. We hope to encourage the readers working in either of the two fields to further expand on and foster the interaction between the two fields.

Kinetic Interference in Translational Control: A Path-Measure Framework for Collision-Triggered Transcript Decay

I connect two literatures developed independently: the path-measure formulation of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics, where a trajectory action decomposes into a time-antisymmetric (entropic) and time-symmetric (frenetic) sector, and the stochastic modelling of ribosomal traffic on messenger RNA. The biological target is a proposed intervention -- antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) interference with wobble-uridine (U34) modification of transfer RNA -- whose intended effect is not to abolish translation but to perturb its timing, driving ribosome collisions and collision-triggered transcript decay preferentially on high-flux, codon-biased transcripts. Dynamical-activity and large-deviation analyses of generic lattice exclusion models -- notably the symmetric and totally asymmetric simple exclusion processes -- are well established. To my knowledge their formalization specifically for ribosomal traffic queues, translation elongation, and collision-triggered no-go decay remains unoccupied; this paper addresses that narrower gap, not the general one. Two claims here are load-bearing and untested. First, selectivity: transcripts whose loss is therapeutically desirable are separable, by vulnerable-codon-pair burden, from transcripts whose loss is toxic. Second, non-redundancy: the frenetic decomposition yields predictions, specific to ribosomal queueing and collision-triggered decay, not already obtainable from rate-level exclusion-process models or existing activity/large-deviation analyses of exclusion processes. This paper establishes neither. It specifies both as falsifiable tests with pre-registered decision rules, including outcomes under which the framework should be abandoned or narrowed. It is a research programme proposal, not a result. No new experimental, computational, or bioinformatic results are reported.

Thermodynamic efficiency of communication channels

We identify a broad class of communication channels that captures common physical constraints in both artificial and natural systems and derive bounds on their thermodynamic cost. We find that the entropy production per channel use is bounded from below by the input-output mutual information, and their ratio -mutual information divided by entropy production- defines the thermodynamic efficiency. Unlike previous studies of energy-constrained communication channels, our analysis shows that thermodynamic costs must be assigned not only to the input symbols themselves, but also to transitions between successive symbols. As a result, maximizing thermodynamic efficiency favors a biased input that switches only rarely, rather than the capacity-achieving input. For the binary symmetric channel, this preference emerges through a pitchfork bifurcation that spontaneously breaks the symmetry of the channel. A minimal model of cellular sensing exhibits the same phenomenon.
