Abstract:

We develop a technique for establishing statistical tests with precise confidence levels for upper bounds on the critical probability in oriented percolation. We use it to give pc < 0.647 with a 99.999967% confidence. As Monte Carlo simulations suggest that pc ≈ 0.6445, this bound is fairly tight.
