摘要
We study the onset of the bootstrap percolation transition as a model of generalized dynamical arrest. Our results apply to two dimensions, but there is no significant barrier to extending them to higher dimensionality. We develop a new importance-sampling procedure in simulation, based on rare events around "holes", that enables us to access bootstrap lengths beyond those previously studied. By framing a new theory in terms of paths or processes that lead to emptying of the lattice we are able to develop systematic corrections to the existing theory and compare them to simulations. Thereby, for the first time in the literature, it is possible to obtain credible comparisons between theory and simulation in the accessible density range.
