Explosive site percolation and finite-size hysteresis.

We report the critical point for site percolation for the "explosive" type for two-dimensional square lattices using Monte Carlo simulations and compare it to the classical well-known percolation. We use similar algorithms as have been recently reported for bond percolation and networks. We calculate the explosive site percolation threshold as p(c) = 0.695 and we find evidence that explosive site percolation surprisingly may belong to a different universality class than bond percolation on lattices, providing that the transitions (a) are continuous and (b) obey the conventional finite size scaling forms. Finally, we study and compare the direct and reverse processes, showing that while the reverse process is different from the direct process for finite size systems, the two cases become equivalent in the thermodynamic limit of large L.
