Diffusion on percolating clusters

The moments τₖ of typical diffusion times for ``blind'' and ``myopic'' ants on an arbitrary cluster are expressed exactly in terms of resistive correlations for the associated resistor network. For a diluted lattice at bond concentration p, we introduce ``diffusive'' susceptibilities χₖ(p) as the average over clusters of τₖ. For p{→}pc, where pc is the percolation threshold, χₖ(p) diverges as . We show that γₖ=kΔ_τ-{β} with Δ_τ={β}+{γ}+{ζ}, where {β} and {γ} are percolation exponents and {ζ} is the resistance scaling exponent. Our analysis provides the first analytic demonstration that the leading exponents γₖ are the same for a wide class of models, including the two types of ants as special cases, although corrections to scaling are larger for the myopic ant than for the blind one. This class of models includes that for dilute spin waves in Heisenberg ferromagnets. Exact enumerations allow us to study universal amplitude ratios (at p=pc)χₖ₊₁{{χ}}_{k{{-}}1}$/${{χ}}ₖ²$ as a function of continuous spatial dimension d. For d6 these ratios assume a constant value which for k=2 agrees with the exact result for the Cayley tree. The ${{χ}}ₖ$ have the scaling properties predicted by Gefen, Aharony, and Alexander [Phys. Rev. Lett. 50, 77 (1983)] for anomalous diffusion.
