A new analytical formalism has been recently proposed to deal with heterogeneous k-cores, where each vertex is assigned a local threshold k_i. In this paper we identify a binary mixture of heterogeneous k-core which exhibits a tricritical point. We investigate the new scaling scenario and calculate the relevant critical exponents, by analytical and computational methods, for Erdos-Renyi networks and 2d square lattices.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2011-09-07T15:58:27.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "64.60.ah", "05.70.Fh", "64.60.aq", "89.75.Da" ], "keywords": [ "heterogeneous k-core percolation", "tricritical point", "2d square lattices", "random damage", "local threshold" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review Letters", "year": 2011, "month": "Oct", "volume": 107, "number": 17, "pages": 175703 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011PhRvL.107q5703C" } } }
