abstract
We calculate the distribution of the size of the percolating cluster on a tree in the subcritical, critical and supercritical phase. We do this by exploiting a mapping between continuum trees and Brownian excursions, and arrive at a diffusion equation with suitable boundary conditions. The exact solution to this equation can be conveniently represented as a characteristic function, from which the following distributions are clearly visible: Gaussian (subcritical), Kolmogorov-Smirnov (critical) and exponential (supercritical). In this way we provide an intuitive explanation for the result reported in R. Botet and M. Ploszajczak, Phys. Rev. Lett 95, 185702 (2005) for critical percolation.

Critical Percolation as a Synthetic Data Model for Interpretability
Critical percolation clusters embedded in high dimensions, combined with taxonomic latent variables, form an analytically tractable synthetic data model whose ground-truth hierarchy can be linearly decoded from network activations.
