An Introduction To Percolation Theory
Abstract
The basic ideas of percolation theory were anticipated in the early 1940s in the theory of polymer gelation (Flory 1941, Stockmayer 1944) and in the theory of branching processes (Good 1949). However, the genesis of percolation theory may be attributed justly to Broadbent (1954) in the published discussion of a paper by Hammersley and Morton (1954) on Monte Carlo methods. The early history of the subject is discussed by Hammersley (1983): Broadbent was at that time working at the British Coal Utilization Research Association on the design of gas masks for use in coal mines.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
